    Thanks MrsB :)

    It does mean this will be a tight month but I was spurred on by being so angry with Santander when I thought that I would no longer be paying interest on any debt!

    It's ok HWG, there's no scalpel - just lasers and a hook :rotfl::rotfl:

    Only a tiny one, it's so they can lift back the flap before doing the second set of lasers.

    Actually that does sound bad put like that! :eek:

    There's some videos of the procedure on Youtube if you want to watch something icky and freak yourself out - which I stupidly did just before getting it done :o

    Oh no, I can't watch anything like that. I'm really squeamish. Can't even watch when I have a blood test _pale_.

    When my OH had his done, he said he could smell burning. That sounded like the worst part to me - I would have freaked out (wasn't going to tell you that before you had it done though ;)).

    You do get the smell of burning with the second set of lasers, which is very gross!

    They do warn you though before you go in - although they make it sound like it's the laser that smells rather than your eye, which I was happy to go along with :D

    £10 towards paying off my brother today :)

    Going to my Mum's for a Chinese tonight, working tomorrow followed by BBQ and then another craft fair on Sunday.

    Bet's it's Monday again so fast!

    So, craft fair was really quiet again, only 2 sales! My friend and I have decided to go and check out some craft fairs before booking anymore, see if we can get a feel for how busy they are first.

    £5 to the overdraft today :)
