My auntie had one of these and he was a lovely sweet natured thing.
*spends the rest of the night googling cute pets*
LOL....nice on FF... Glad you are finally going on holiday...but you are right...holiday monies have to come before PAD's...
No pad's here....unless £15 to rainy day fund counts..
More whoopsie spends cos I've had such a derriere of a week and I discovered I love chanel no.5 last night...so got it half price on ebay....
Good buys but whoopsie buys still the same..:eek:..
Have decided am buying no more new shoulder bags even though I'd love a barbour saddle type bag because like I change them so often. Max budget for a shoulder bag = £10 from now on...
I don't really do shoes apart from what I need but I'm terrible at bags :eek:......it's one of my weaknesses...
Good to see you back GAP.....
Hope you can cope with the empty nest syndrome whoever it was - hugs
Am now budgeting for cigs and then not buying them with the aim of padding cig monies end of week. But with not menu planning it soon gets spent :eek: I'm now 16 days despite a horrid week e-cig though I know I'm not out of the woods yet
E:dance:
I believe in the power of PAD

As psychopathbabble said, you should be able to set up a to make a payment to your creditors. You'd need the account, sort code & ref. no (my credit card is the card number). It might be worth going into the branch or ringing them to help if you're not sure.
Thanks Hopeful!!:j£10 a day extra in May '18[B]£35/310[

small one today as a i had to get fuel this morning
38p to cchelpful tips
it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
there - 'in or at that place'
their - 'owned by them'
they're - 'they are'
it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)0 -
i've not updated this this week, but what i've started doing is making additional, regular daily payments to my cc from my current account, so if my balance reads XXX.32 when i come online, making a payment of 32p to round it down. when i'm feeling flush, i'll take it from after the decimal place, so if it reads XX1.32, making a payment of £1.32 per day. it's not much, but it's getting me there better than one small payment a month would, as i'm now making that same small ( a few pound over minimum payment) plus a bunch more smaller payments on tophelpful tips

the key is to train an incompatible behaviour - the one recommended in the book i've got tells you to teach the cat to sit on a chair in the kitchen (there's literally no room for a single stool in my kitchen so i taught mine to sit on a mat - it worked but i think a chair would be more effective cos he kept wandering off the mat at the start).
so. at feeding time, encourage him to jump up on the chair, and reward him for it. then reward him for sitting on it for 3 seconds, then 5 seconds, then 10 seconds. then start pottering about the kitchen as if you're about to prepare the food, all the while rewarding him every 10 seconds or so for staying on the chair, but try not to give him any clues as to when you're about to reward him - just make it seem random as long as he's sitting on the chair.
if he jumps off, encourage him to get back on and start again, maybe with shorter intervals. eventually you'll be able to potter about with him sitting on the chair waiting for his next treat, keep treating him until you're ready to feed him, then make the final interval much shorter (3 seconds or so) and give him his dinner and a big fuss
took my cat about 2 sessions to learn, it was incredible. i think he was just under a year old. i admit he's forgotten (not his fault, i got rid of the mat cos even that was in the way in my tiny kitchen!) and just recently he's started making a blimmin racket when he's about to be fed so i might have to try re-training him
good luck!! x
