Good Morning!
Long time since I started one of these - took me ages to work out how!
It's a lovely sunny day here. I'd put my washing out but the washing machine appears to have broken. Never mind.
I am attempting to dye my hair - it may end in tears as I've not done it before! :eek:

    Before & after pics Bookie?

    I'm feeling a bit more upbeat today. Amazing what a difference a sunny start to the day makes:o

    Payday today and finances continue to look good. Just 3 more payments and my personal loan will be history then CCs beware! Egg has been cancelled (I declined their latest hike in interest rate...;)), as has the Barclaycard. I could seriously be debt free by end of next year:eek::j

    Thats Brilliant Luc!!

    Not Sunny here not raining either so I'm tempted to try some washing on the line :) Nathan needs his rugby strip for tomorrow so i've just washed it :) For some reason this week I don't seem to have much washing :)

    Have cleaned through, just having a coffee then i'm going back to the dining room table to sort more (after i've put the washing out) Its quite satisfying seeing all the beads and findings etc all neat and tidy in boxes :)

    Suzy, Before you buy loads of craft stuff, pm me, I have loads of s plated jump rings, earwires, long tube beads (I use to make Bangles) etc. Might be able to save you a bit of money :)

    Hope the hair goes well Bookie!

    Payday for me too today and have got the debt down to £8000 which has made me rather :j

    Quiet at work but gonna be busy at home this evening preparing for the in-laws visit!

    Better than it was but a tad uneven is the verdict.
