    Sorry I couldn't PAD over the weekend, had to find £80 to get new brake pads for OH's front wheels,

    PAD for today is £65 to bank loan.

    It's going to be a tight month especially as I have to make sure there is enough money left in the account for council tax which restarts the day before pay day.:mad:
  • Persuaded OH to change his daily paper from one that costs a £1.00 to a 20p one :). So today's PAD is £1.36 to OH's cc made up of the 80p and left over change from yesterday.

    Downside is that I've got a screw in my trye but don't know whether it can be fixed or whether £100 new tyre is needed :mad:

    If it's just a screw, it's possible that it can be repaired subject to certain conditions.
    Personally, I wouldn't try to do it myself but get a pro to do it.

    Maybe have a look here:

    http://www.tyrz.co.uk/Tyre-Repairs

    http://www.theaa.com/motoring_advice/safety/tyre-repairs-and-sealants.html

    I suppose that if it is repairable, the next question would be whether it is cost effective - depending on how worn the tyre is and cost of buying a new one.
  • Well the good news here is that my washing machine has been resurrected. I think I'll christen it "Lazarus".
    It is more expensive getting the company's engineer out but the flip side of that is you get most of the money back (in credit form) if it needs to be scrapped - so long as you spend it on one of their own machines.
    It's cost me £135 but if I get another 2 - 3 years out of it for that, I will be happy.
    It's always a fine line to tread when an appliance (or a vehicle) gets older.
    I've had my moneys worth out of it. I've had it about 15+ years and I've spent about £230 in repairing it during that time.

    Managed to get a couple of things on ebay last thursday and one has bids already so very pleased with that.

  • Hi everyone!

    Sorry I've been AWOL for what seems like aaaaages, have been waiting for DH to sort out my unhappy laptop!

    Just a dinky PAD for me today, 81p into the Tardis. Would have been more but I haven't been paid :mad: not a happy Poohbear! Will have a look through the bank statements and pad last weeks repayments in a bit Saorsie, and if my boss pulls his finger out hopefully a little bit extra too!

    Ooo I can't wait for my first scan Flower, bet you're sooooo excited!! :D :j
