:rotfl:
believe me I was in shock. Although not as much as poor OH will be. He gave me his bank card to take some money out for fuel. Glad I checked it first, 0. We both get paid tomorrow but I'm guessing a direct debit has come off he's forgotten about. He's still talking about buying a present for the ungrateful one for this weekend. I know if he does he's just going to get it flung back in his face (he's already paying off a tv he bought for her from the catalogue that they decided they didn't want and oh dear it got broken......i.e smashed. they were meant to be paying OH back a bit every week but that stopped and OH was left with the debt).

that's really evil if you ask me. If you don't want something you say thank you nicely and explain, you don't break things, especially if you've agreed to pay for them. some people.....
Mr LT and I are desparately awaiting pay day tomorrow as well it's felt a long time coming this month and i don't think that's all due to the fact i was looking forward to my extra pay.0 -
I feel same as you LT (on both the tv and pay day). What happened with your extra pay?
Heading off to bed shortly, am making a belated anniversary card for OH.

Car picked up ok, glad to have it back. Frightening bill :eek: but was necessary. Some more pictures of cards and hampers loaded as well. Not feeling too great so chilling out, stretched out on sofa.

Hope everyone's well. I've uploaded more pics to my card and hamper site. I've blacked out names to respect the privacy of those they were made for.
LT, I'd love to hear some of your card ideas. Why not post them on my page?
Had busy weekend. OH did buy the present for you know who but got someone else to take it. No thank you or nothing. I did try and tell him. At least he didn't get sucked in by the nonsense and go along.
I haven't done anymore tarot this weekend. OH took me out for our anniversary on friday, he made it really special. Went to see my Gran today and spent some time with her, I can't imagine how she's feeling.
Bought the stuff to make the latest hamper, will start constructing it tomorrow. I'm really enjoying making hampers again.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera.

Have deals on in work so if anyone would like half price Sky for a year (new customers only) or if you don't want the tv bit you can get half-price broadband let me know asap and I'll send you the info you need.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera.
