    Bienvenuti Froggy,

    Pretty good week all round. Progress on all fronts. Loving the new bathroom, glad the IVF prognosis is looking promising and overly delightable at you dropping into the next milestone of the millstone - I think you both deserved your takeaway. For the remainder of 2011, I'm keeping everything possible crossed for a new job, a tadpole in the oven, the annoying unsecured bit to be removed from your signature and, beyond everything else, the sun for you to shine when you venture up the road to bonny Scotland.

    Cheers,

    Billy

    Merhaba Billy!

    Thanks for popping by... We are delighted with the bathroom, so glad its all finished & paid for now... All systems go for IVF, OH started the injections this week, and all going well so far (I won't bore/scare you with details ;))...
    We both can't wait for our Scottish adventure!

    Following conversations with OH over the past couple of nights, it looks like we will hang on to the large OP's and park them in savings account, until we know more about the IVF results and subsequent treatment / maternity costs... We will still be making OP's just not as large as before (like this month £1.3K :p)... No matter what happens we are still on target, it will just be one massive OP at the end of the year, rather than spread monthly IYSWIM...

    Cheers

    Del buen dia Froggy,

    In that case, there's an offsetty type bit that you'll need to keep your legion of fans updated with. With all the Uri Geller-esqe good vibes flowing your way (yes, I'm touching the screen now!), there's only one outcome! I've still to think about saving! Damn the Bank of that England for not sticking interest rates up by 10% on the 29th of October 2010!

    Cheers,

    Morning all!

    Small update as very busy up here..

    I have claimed my first ever survey payout! £10 Mr T voucher from VO!! It can be used against birthday purchases or weekly shop..
    Also got email from Quidco, and £10.19 is on its way! That can go straight to the OP fund...

    Small scare with OH IVF injection last night, as she thinks most of it did not go in, she did another one, but now is very worried (and so am I) that it jeopardized the whole process.. We are waiting for a call back from the hospital nurses, but they are taking their bl**dy time (1H30 since our call!!!).. I am not a patient person... Think I might have been a bit abrupt with the people I have interacted with this morning so far..

    Froggy - what did she do? Is she a bit wary of the needle?? Would it be better if you injected her? If you were closer I would of injected her for you been there done that i'm afraid.
