    flexiable tub.
    I used one for the last baby pressie & it worked well.

    Yep also this doubles as a baby bath, plus toy storage when they get older. However I do prefer the nice wicker basket :D

    Hmm, think I might see how much I can get together for it first. I think I am swaying towards the wicker basket because of the lovely blanket I have got to put in the bottom of it.

    Thanks for the idea though Lou :A. I would never have though about using one of those for it.

    I didn't think I would meet my target today. I stayed up until midnight to play on the free game on Jackpot Joy. I got 10 free spins which won me just over £3. I kept playing and finally managed to get £10 exactly. Needless to say I withdrew it straight away!!! :j:j:j:j

    So I am still on target. £50 to go in 10 days :D

    Off to bed now :)

    Morning :D

    Still buzzing from my midnight win :j. I know it was only £10, but it's £10 closer to getting a free bed!!

    Had my first Lovefilm delivery through, so I take it they have accepted the trial. Fingers crossed that Amazon voucher comes through pronto!!

    I'm going to set myself a target of £50 for my sister's baby hamper. All in Amazon vouchers, so whilst £50 may seem expensive, it won't cost me a penny!! After I've got the bed, I'll set a deadline of 1st August to get the £50 in my account.

    Also got a couple of letters from creditors. Both were accepting my previous offer and both were dated in the middle of June :mad:. I know the postal service isn't always great, but 2 weeks for a letter to get to me? Rubbish!! Capital One want me to send my last 3 bank statements to them. Not a chance. Luckily that is my smallest debt, and the one I want to get rid of first (after the debt to my mum), so may just pay them £50 a month to keep them happy.

    Well done on the win, I never seem to get anywhere with JJ.

    Fingers crossed for the voucher from Lovefilm too :)

    Cheeky beggars, Capital One - what have your bank statements got to do with them?!

    Exactly!! I've had creditors asking for proof of my illness before, which is fine as I guess a lot of people do try it on. At the end of the day, Capital One have no real powers so they can whistle for the bank statements. :cool:

    Hi everyone

    I hope you are all having a good weekend. Been a lovely sunny day here today.

    Just watched one of the films I got from Lovefilm - Rabbit Hole. It was good, but very sad. I've had to put on a cheerful film to remedy my mood!! Julie and Julia - I love this film, always leaves me feeling very uplifted.
