    I think its ok, but the window on the right hand side of the page seems to slow down the page loading up. Is that the same for you?

    I like the minty fresh thing going on... but logically the side thingy should be on the left as it's a natural trait that we always look to the right first.... so if you're using the forums it's confusing because they're on the left and the thing on the right is just distracting.. especially as half of it is blank anyway..

    Yes it's the same for me Lenny, I just think it's way too cluttered, too much information on the page. It's all shoved over to the left too. But then, I hate change.

    True IA, the minty thing is nice. I'm not sure about the coloured tabs on the main forum page though. Ok I'm just being picky, I'll shut up now.

    Minty freshness good - page wrong way round I agree. Very odd. Not too sure about some other stuff but I am waiting my time as I don't like change either. It's a bit like redecorating your house isn't it, you notice every time you walk in for the first week and then you forget about it on the whole but if it still bugs you after that then the roller is coming out again. Think I quite like the tabs at the top but it took me a while to notice the forum one (I know I am blind/stupid) I did have a few palps wondering where you had all got to.

    I don't like the 'to the left' thing - my brain likes things to be centred!

    Anyway. I'm STRESSED. Worried about how we're going to manage with now having to live off tax credits... :undecided: I'm so used to doing things monthly my budgets just don't work weekly and I don't know what to do! Think I'm going to have to look into evening jobs until my childminding kicks off.. everything's just so complicated I don't understand it or how we're going to manage!!

    Hey, I'm kinda feeling the same as u, my mat pay goes as from this week, and it's pretty sucky. Working thro my budgets, we're gonna be circ £600 short for the next two months (gonna have to cut a LOT of things... no going out, no xmas/birthday/hols savings etc etc - even my poor dog is going on basics dog food for two months!) and only £130 left in the emegency fund :eek: . Of course it doesn't help that our employer has f%$*&d up OH's wages FOR THE FOURTH MONTH IN A ROW!!!:mad: Only £600 short this month!!!:mad:
    I am lucky tho that we get paid four weekly rather than monthly, so at least my budget spreadsheet still calculates out.

    You have done so well with what u have paid off already, so a month or two with only min payments won't hurt too much - altho now I've said that, it'd porbs stress u even more! I think I might have to resort to that tho, eBay and Amazon seemed to have forgotten all about me :(

    Talking of eBay, any news on ur dodgy geezer yet?
