    Hi everyone:hello: :hello: :hello: :hello:
    Hope you are all well today:p :p:p What a lovely sunny day here:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
    Have had quite a good day today....paid another £140 off halifax CC today...so...now only owe £116.81:j :j :j :j
    Whilst in there noticed the new deal ...applied...and got turned down....because apparently I've got 6 CCs with them so came home and closed every one of them including the platinum one that I'm still paying...
    Next week is going to be a card cutting event....:j :j :j :j
    Well I went to the job centre this morning for that interview about going back to work(though not until Aug 22nd at the earliest)....and because I will have been off work for more than 13 weeks they will pay me £40 p/w for 52 weeks as long as I don't earn more than £15000 p/y..for my share of the business....How crazy is that?...no wonder this government have no money...
    Washed 2 lots of washing and both drying on the line...so that's another few pennies saved!!!
    Well not a lot else to say really except the Egg Card hasn't arrived yet...I wonder how long that would take....then my finances will be in order:j :j :j

    NO!!! No drinking on a Thursday!! I made that mistake last week.

    Let's stick to tea and calorie-free cake all round.
