:T great news on the fruity phone SOT2011.
I agree with you that there is no need for such awful comments. I think some people confuse stating their opinion with just being plain rudeSuccess means having to worry about every thing in the world......EXCEPT MONEY. Johnny Cash

Evening all.
Rest assured being 44 doesn't really bother me (mainly!). Still waiting to grow up really - which helps!
Having a much better run of luck just now. Got my backpay today and I'd underestimated so it was a nice chunk! Bought my colleagues some Thorntons Mini Caramel Shortcakes to celebrate. (£2 - how generous am I!).
Sat down with the ex this evening and he's agreed to pay DD2's Paris Trip! This makes things much more manageable for me, and I am very grateful as he does already pay maintainance. (What he doesn't know is that now that I am MSE-wise I generally manage to save this in an ISA for the children's future).
Managed to sell DD2's old bike on a local "Free-things" fb page, so they are coming to collect and pay tomorrow for that. Had to drop the price by £10, but it's not really the right time of the year to sell bikes, so just glad it's gone.
Lastly heading off on the school trip on Thus. School pay for the hotel and meals so no spends there. We are going to the Trafford Centre so that might not be so "no-spendy!"
Off to wash and iron and get organised.
Have a good night all!

Honestly, not sure when anyone last looked for a mobile deal but .... OMG I just can't believe how many different suppliers / deals / phones there are :eek:
I've seen a couple I really like so trying to find the best deal - and I also have "coverage issues" with both me but especially DM living in very rural locations.... so now trying to work out which networkI can go with and then trying to find a deal:)

Was it the balding reference, Psion 5 MX that gave me away?
