  • Seems to happen every now and then Ellidee, so nothing for it but to wait and see. Last time it happened they fixed it the day after, so fingers crossed.

    My XOH is with Talktalk in Norwich and his line is also down - talktalk said the whole area is down, but it sounds like they have much wider problems than that!

  • Well i am amazed- Talktalk said it could take up to 5 days to fix, but he was putting it as a priority. Phone call at 8.20am to say it was fixed. :) Well done Talktalk.

    Now i have to use Dongle credit up- but can do that with pupils at work and hopefully claim some back on expenses. So all is not lost.

    Spends today- milk and fresh veg came to £3. Have to make my PAD on the Santander card and that will be about it.

    Hope everyone had a good day.

  • Sneaks on because i promised myself i would do some work- then decided to have a mooch on here.

    Small update..i now have enough money in separate account to pay off my car. I am going to hold onto it for this next month, to see how wages look as one job will be lower. Then i will pay it off :)))))))

    I completed my tax return and my tax bill is .......40p :)

    DD2 has been for a job interview this am- it went well so fingers crossed.

    Mr.B didn't get me my cake holder :( He is in the dog house now..but good news is that after his snoring exploits this week, he is sleeping downstairs for a change.. Bedroom is mine, with nice bedlinen on and no mess So all is good there.

    That's about it really.

    Need to update debt total at beginning of FEB- I am getting excited now when i can see it rapidly reducing.

    Bob.
