    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hi all!

    Hope everybody is having a nice (if chilly!) weekend. I slept in until midday because I'm on a night shift tonight so stayed up late last night in preparation. Feeling pleased with myself because when I woke up I'd sold 2 wii games on amazon. Bit of extra moolah, yay!

    Toiled over homemade bread and scotch broth for lunch. OH has just toddled off for his shift, I'm on at 19:00. Now I'm chilling in front of Grand Designs. :D

    Have a good night everybody!

    Evening!

    Mum has broadband, yay! I'm glad I brought my laptop with me.

    Kayleigh, I did notice your reply, they've been nicer since then. I still haven't a clue what to do though!

    Right, I'm off to trawl ebay and online bookshops for textbooks, oh joy...

    Evening all. Hope everyone had a good day.

    I am about to settle down for the evening with a glass, or two, of wine and watch the entertainment on the box.

    So glad the snow is all gone here.

    Ames - what textbooks are you looking for? I doubt I have any suitable ones as most of mine went to Oxfam/ebay but if you want to say I can double check as I'd be happy to let you have them for just postage, if I have any you need.

    I studied a course on law a long time ago but consumer rather than criminal - I'll check the spare room books when I can incase I still have any general law books. If I find any I'll drop you a PM.
