    Hi all, went out for lunch with my Mum today she gave me my birthday money. It got me thinking I really want to do something nice for my Mum but I dont know what. Sometimes in life you dont know whats around the corner! Just dont know what.....:(

    On the downside my savings have been wiped out by the credit card :mad: that'll teach me to use it :mad:...life is a lesson!

    Start doing Ebay tonight as I am band jamming tomorrow (they only gave me 2 days notice :() starting to run out of stuff to Ebay now :T

    Hi everyone, been a bit busy. :D

    Went for my audition/band jam on Thursday and it looks like Im in a band for the time being....:j. I like the guys and its not all serious theres a lot of banter and joking about. So I will see how it goes. The bass player has kitted out his garage with recording equipment and drums!! So its a good set up and we dont have to pay for hiring somewhere! :p

    Friday I was so tired that I could barely type!! I didnt get home till before midnight :cool:

    Today was a productive day, focussing on my party which is 3 weeks today so need to get invitations for those whose not on Facebook which is a few but not a lot! I got my hair clip and curling tongs (which is an early birthday present from my flatmate as she wont be here) I just need to get a few bits for my outfit, napkins, decorations and Im there! Its trying to find things in Inverness thats the problem! :cool:

    On the money news managed to add £10 to the savings which is money from Paypal! :)

    Hi everyone, watching the British Grand Prix, Come on Jenson! :D

    Getting a few bits done, got the landladies coming today so we get to find out our leaving date, my flatmate will try and start in Sept hopefully so plenty of time for me to start Ebaying properly and getting rid of junk.

    So we've been tidying up a lot this weekend and cleaning. We have a friend coming around with a curry for us tonight :D

    My minimum payment came out today so I am glad to report my CC is under £1800 :j:j

    I am feeling a lot more relaxed about it now that I have some savings which I am glad I have as it is needed for a deposit on a room somewhere :D

    Watch this space on a moving date and its too early to start looking :(

    Definitely important to have the money saved for the room deposit. Otherwise you would just get in more debt to afford it.
