  • Thanks all. The present situation isn't actually too bad, as we usually have a credit card that gets cleared every month for birthdays etc which isn't included in our debts, so the pressies will be bought, it's just how much will be left over to clear this last bit that will count.
    I will do it though, by hook or by crook!

    Oh well done, I'm so pleased for you.
    I ave a dodgy H, so sometimes I will sound dead common, on occasion dead stupid and rarely, pig ignorant. Sometimes I may be these things, but I will always blame it on my dodgy H.

    Sorry, I'm a bit of a grumble weed today, no offence intended ... well it might be, but I'll be sorry.

    thats brilliant, just think how much of a weight that will be off your mind when your seeing the new year in! One last push and you'll be there (as my midwife once said), maybe one final search for ebayable items etc to help cover christmas?
