    Who blinking knows!

    I'm guessing there's a bar or two of chocolate involved somewhere :rotfl:


    And a can of pop and a packet of crisps no doubt!

    :A saintly or daft :p

    Very impressed. Is it just so you feel less guilty nagging OH about his gold sprinkled sarnies??

    Hope you're going to treat yourself in some way instead as it was a birthday pressie after all :j

    Yes, it does make me feel a bit better about the nagging, thing is he wouldn't have a clue about what I buy, but I have my beedy eyes on all our accounts!

    Went to see my mum today, and thought of yours. How is she doing? Are the "people" still bothering her?
    Starting again 13/4/19
    Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99
    Total owed: £28,801.49
  • Things are improving greatly thank you Lois_E, she has had a couple of 'home' days and so far things have been fairly good..the odd 'person' around but no where near as many as before. We are hoping she will be home full time in a month or so:j

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

  • Hubby has just spent £428 on 4 new tyres for his car...OMG when is his car going to stop costing us so much money??? What with the clutch the air conditioning and now the tyres we must have spent over £2,000 on it over the last few months:eek::eek::eek:

    I really feel like our money is running away with us at the moment......I don't know how people in debt sleep at night, we have the money to pay out these recent incredible bills, but it still make me feel sick!

    Moan moan moan.......
