    kerri gt - well done for number 5 :j:j:j - lucky you re choc oranges...I read about it on the grabbit board too late to go out and get some (grrr!) I probs would have eaten them all anyway :o

    I have them stashed away now, did think it was best not to mention them to OH as I'm sure he'd eat them before Xmas - and he's already been warned off the tin of QS :cool: Luckily I tend to be quite restrained when I am saving things like that :A

    JAN NSD 11/16


  • I'll have nsd3 today please. I almost went out yesterday and grabbed some choc oranges, but by the time DH was home, showered & we'd had dinner it was late, I couldn't be bothered plus looking at the thread it looked as though most of the stores were either cleaned out by msers or the management had cottoned on so that kept my nsd and saved the diesel of me tearing around to about 20 Mr Ts to try and find some :D.

    freshair how awful, glad your friend is ok though

    :jI think one of the job interviews last week may have paid off (and the one I wanted). The 1st one haven't called back and they said they would by yesterday, but I'm sort of relieved about htat. The supermarket manager has just called me to double check the hours that I am available. I don't think he'd be doing that if he wasn't looking to take me on. :j Watch this space :D
    Clean credit file:12 mths
    Car loan: FREE! :j
    THE PLAN: 1.Pay off debt £8808.42(£3254.45, £1570.32, £2698.33, £0:dance:, £1000, £285.32) 2.Save monthly for Christmas/insurance etc £150 per month 3.Save for emergencies /£1500 4.Save for our B&B £????depends which one takes our fancy :D
  • i know its rather early in the day to be claiming success but seeing as i am lay on the sofa after putting my back out there isnt much chance of me getting out to spend any money today :(

    therefore i am confident in calling in with NSD 6 and that is also my 4 in a row completed too!!!:beer:

  • Well, I think I may well give in to the Lakeland tempation:o - I've been hunting around online and can find what I need elsewhere for a couple £ less but not an exact match for my purposes (which is what the Lakeland things are).

    From past experience, having bought things that aren't exactly what I need for slightly less than the "perfect thing", it never really works and I then end up having to buy the original thing in a couple months time.

    So, I guess I'm better spending my £15 now, rather than £10 now and then £15 in a couple of months time!;)
