    Morning all..

    Hope you all had a great weekend..

    I won't be able to add to the pot this week.. Spent far too much money in London this weekend..but hey, you can't put a price on good times :beer: normal service should resume in the next couple of weeks..

    Still searching for a permanent job, as my temp one will run out at the end of March.. A few applications made in the last week, just have to wait and see if I am picked for interviews..

    Cheers

    Froggy :D

    Hello Froggy, good to see that things are going well.
    Hope the interviews materialise for you and the fund continues to grow. Impressive total in such a short time!

  • Hi Froggy,
    I'm a newbie but an oldie, we have spoke in the past on here and I am just reading through members that I remember.
    Thought I would pop in and say hi (trying to get my post figure up lol) cant say who I was on here though as had a stalker ;)

    Morning all :j

    Oops, seems to have gone AWOL a bit lately.. I am still reading all your diaries though..

    Anyway, onto money matters.. £400 and odd bits added to the pot, fast approaching the £6k mark (should hit it end of next week)..

    Work wise, no idea what’s going on.. My contract is due to end at the end of March, but looks like it would be extended.. I will believe it when I see it on paper.. I’d rather have a permanent job though, I would prefer the security.. In the meantime, I am maximising the number of hours I can work as the hourly pay is good and therefore my pot is growing nicely and quickly..

    Hope you are all well..

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
