Interesting re Very account.
I got one to get 20% off my Shark & paid off over 3 months.
But way too adictive with the easy pay.

Morning :hello:
I am shattered......decided on a last minute trip to the beach seeing as it's only 15 mites away but omg I've woke up shattered I blame the sea air :rotfl:
Kids had fun time at the massive playpark then we had a walk along the beach just having a laugh with each other.......it's getting rarer and rarer having the three kids all together at the same time now that Abbie is getting older and has a boyfriend so we take those day /nights when we can :cool:
Whilst we were there Abbie got a phone call.........she's been offered a job :T:T:T:T she starts on Saturday at 1pm so he'll have her volunteering job from 11-12am on Saturday and the she'll be working 1pm til 6pm so I'm so so proud of her and she's so chuffed with herself as so she should be
Working 7.30am til 3pm so no I haven't hadn't the bank holiday offmindee having his breakfast so I'm on here catching up
Speaking of bank holidays I've not been paid off two parents as they won't hit my bank until Tuesday but it's ok not their fault and also my last direct debit for the finance agreement hasn't came out so no doubt it'll come out Tuesday as wellI can wait :rotfl:
Plans for today are to go to the park today...........I'll take the boys to Tesco on the way there and ill by them a sandwich deal so we can have a picnic as I've no bread in the house and I'm sure the boys won't complain xx
Doctors finally prescribed me anti inflammatory that works :T only took 2 weeks :mad: but we got there in the end and after pushing a buggy around all day I'm pleased my shoulder held out and it's not too achy this morning plus I didn't take any tablets at all yesterday :T go me xx
Right wee one is fished his breakfast so off to play with him until the boys get up from their beds.......lazy bums xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
Congratulations to Abbie :T

[FONT="]Hi Abba, I've skimmed a large part of your dairy and am coming out of lurking to pick up on your dilemma about paying for sitting together on flights. Here is a quote from Simon Calder the travel writer about this. Could save you a lot of money - even if the teens are not sat with you, I assume it is the little one you are most concerned about anyway.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Q: I am taking my two young children on holiday. My travel agent told me I would need to pay extra to make sure we sit together. Is that right?[/FONT]
[FONT="]A:[/FONT][FONT="] No, and it is one of the most scurrilous claims made by travel firms – driven by the airline’s greed for making more money by selling seat reservations. The Civil Aviation Authority is clear: if you are travelling with under 12s, then each of them must be sat with a responsible adult (which could be adjacent seats separated by an aisle). If the airline provides you with boarding passes that break this rule, then it’s their problem, not yours, and the flight crew will need to sort it out.[/FONT]

[FONT="]I hate these rip offs so hope this is helpful.
