    Yeah you see I can't even follow my own argument - ZTD, that's initials.

    Hi chatters, rain and more rain here. Hope it rains itself out before our party on Sat.

    Just faced the music as have received CC statement through which is back up to £2091:o managed to get accepted for PO O% card with £35 cashback so will concentrate on getting back on the moneysaving wagon and stop overspending.

    To make one mistake is OK, to make the same mistake is unforgivable so before things get out of hand again I am tackling it now.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    That's not a real man. That's a life size deviant action man. I bet you'd find a switch at the back of his head to swivel his eyes.

    Feeling a bit better today. Good nights sleep and a concentration on encouraging the snot to come out rather than palliatively massaging over the top of it (nice image - sorry!) seem to be working.

    Another carton of orange juice purchased. Throat lozenges to keep the grated throat feeling at bay.

    Right train tickets and job to track down.

    Hi all,what have I missed??
    Hope all are ok,Mallorca was good-weather a bit rubbish for the first 10 days,but last 8 days were glorious so not all bad..had forgotten how expensive it has got! Ate onboard the boat one night, then just went ashore to a little beach bar for a nightcap-2 rounds of drinks for adults,and 3 kids rounds.....how much ?????





    102 euros!!!!! !!!!!!?????

    Anyways,new boat is awesome,glad to be back -even if DH is freaking out over the stock market crash-I was woken with a cup of tea this morning-and the instruction to get out of bed and look for a job as we are penniless!! Ho hum....
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    Welcome home SRM. If you are penniless tell your hubby the only way is up. The stock markets are all over the place so they should be back up in a couple of days.
