Pregnancy nightmares got bizarre last night, I was being chased along the River Shannon by a transporter bridge with a manic cradle....

You left all that out of your story this morning.

I said I was chased by a transporter bridge in Ireland.... my brain said it was the Shannon but it didn't look like the bit near your dad.

And now, a money conundrum. How to pay money off a credit card when you have absoluely no idea what the card details are. And yes, I am embarrassed I have so many credit cards some are so forgotten about I don't know where the card is, nor have I ever made an overpayment on it. But I am also pleased at the same time I'm moving on to paying off a new card. I was planning to pay off the big OD first, however from Martin's email this week we should be able to get that OD 0% for a year and since credit cards require minimum payments and the ODs don't, they're now the focus.

Ah been there with the whole 'Crap I need to pay off my card and have no idea how!'... OH owes about £7 (probably £700 now with late fees and interest!) on an old card from years ago and he kept getting missed calls about it but whenever he rang back to sort it he didn't have his card number to pay as he'd cut up the card and he'd moved house twice since so didn't have any statements either! He's just left it now as he has no way of sorting it!

On countdown to the weekend now, hurry up! Off down to London tomorrow and very excited!

I've found a bill now at least. Although I still can't work out how to use HSBC's system (which I usually find very good) to pay NatWest, so I've had to try to do it in Lloyds, but that;s in NIMs name and they need a phone call to verify. I'm actually tempted to just ask NIM to stop in town on his way home tomorrow and pay it over the counter but that seems like technology has defeated me. We're also only £44 off paying off the balance in full, very tempted to 'borrow' that £44 from our spending pot just to get it cleared, and hopefully £44 will arrive from somewhere by the 31st so as not to make my spreadsheet a liar.

(Poolie go in the man cave for a min love)

Just ordered some maternity bras as I seem to be outgrowing them at a scary rate, and I no longer find the mothercare ones supportive enough with my ridiculously increased cup size so wanted some more structured ones. Given the nice designer type pretty ones in the sale are the same price as mothercare/M&S I thought why not. But because I've been measuring as a new size on a weekly basis I've ordered several designs in 5 sizes each.... while I know I'll return almost all of them and just keep 2 or 3 putting through a transaction for over £500 on underwear has me in a foetal position.

(You can come out the cave now Poolie)
