Pinot's Potty debt free journey!!!
Comments

I'm fairly sure any debts are not connected to an address unless it's a secured loan on the property. I think it's when you are linked to a person financially that it starts to count against you. The best place to check it out is on the debt free wannabee board.
Hope your ribs are easier today pooh, the early hours are very lonely.
So, Pinot, you sleep c*ck-legged? Interesting....

You see we have so much in common in the RW too:rotfl:

Woke up in Leeds this morning to find snow and a storm blowing! What a contrast to last week and even this weekend...darent look at the panel totals since I have just got back. Don't think it will be good! Chooks did 4 eggs tho...so the joy of small things and all that!:T

So I am one very proud Mummy again !!
And rightly so ( it shows what great parents she has and is level headed because of it)
Posh British Wine - Well Mrs B, in days gone by I'm sure I may have enjoyed Camel Valley( the name rings a bell ) , but I think my particular Aldi delight was in the region of £1.23, I think thats all that was left in my purse after all of the shower gels ! Never ever again ! My head the next day felt like it had been trampled on by 10 horses. 3 for 10 all the way it is now for me !!
This made me laugh, sometimes cheaper is not always better, and to be honest we all deserve a treat of some kind ( I have been trying to be good no wine at all this week until Saturday;))
This year I have asked for a lemon juicer !! I am really hoping someone remembers, I have pointed a few out to the girls ,that I have my eye on and am hoping they have taken note !! Isnt it funny how quickly our priorities change ?!! Once upon a time diamonds may have been at the top of the list !!)
Hope your birthday wish comes true
Oh........... we made £310.00 on ebay over the weekend !!:j
Huge congrats :j, well done still haven't plucked up the courage to try to sell something, maybe this weekend?
With your late nights etc you really have been a busy bee, hope you manage to catch up on some sleep (sore leg allowing). Is Mr P home for the weekend at all?
Hope the girls enjoyed their ice cream, have to admit I succumbed to the ice cream van tonight very naughty I know but it was delicious (nothing quite like Mr Whippy).
Catch up soon

Thats interesting Piq re the financial connections thankyou. I was aware of the connections with names,but I am always slightly concerned about the whole address thing. We fell victim to ( I would call it identity theft, but I'm unsure if thats exactly correct) whereby someone was using their name, but our address to obtain credit for mobile phones, laptops and ipads. They managed to open in the region of 6/7 accounts under our address before we discovered it and it did affect our ability to obtain credit at the time. We have recently had another, whereby a few online betting accounts were opened using our address but not our name. I have no idea how these people manage it ! Its all very scary really ! :eek:LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Good to see you NRA, and I hope you enjoyed your ice cream ! Our ice cream van has sadly discovered where I live, so now parks the van complete with jingly bell outside of my house, knowing that I cant resist a 99 with nuts and chocolate sauce ! It was when he offered me credit when I had no cash to pay that I got slightly concerned !! :rotfl:
Has no one told the ice cream man, I dont do credit anymore ?!! :rotfl:LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Glad to see you checking in for duty Mrs B ! Are we secretly the same person I wonder ?!! I use pillows for knees and legs, or another member of the family if there is someone available. This evening was DD2 having returned from her mammoth Socialising Fest. She was the unlucky bearer of having my knee propped on her lap so that I could watch The Apprentice in comfort !
Well done on the NSD,I had my first one of the month:T today !!
Snow sounds grim, I love the snow, but not in April, but it sounds like your Chooks quite liked it !!
How you doing without OH and the Girls ? Are they enjoying themselves. Best I rush over to your diary to take a peek !!
I have also noticed that there has been a lack of all things MSE on my diary of late, debt reduction, debt reduction plans etc etc, so I will make a conscious effort to get back on track in the next few days. Things have been ticking along quite nicely behind the scenes with the odd panic here and there but maybe I need to talk about more MSE type things than I tend to , as thats what I'm here for really !!
Oh NRA, you asked if Mr Pinot was here for Easter, he is back late Good Friday night and leaves again the early hours of Easter Monday, so we have him around for a couple of days which will be nice.:D What plans do you all have, anything nice ? xLBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Thanks PG
It's definitely quiet without them, but they are having a good time and it'll be great to see them when they are all back on Sunday. Work has kept me busy too!
Am glad that the debt busting and financial management is going OK...Tbh I had rather assumed that it was copeable with ( not sure that's a word!) as you seemed quite perky!

I managed to watch The Apprentice without a knee propper. I very much enjoyed adding my own commentary to the programme...
I gave special vent to the typo on the bottle label and the scene involving the very concerned looks from the boys when the blond girl took charge of the project. “It is very complicated…” said one kindly. “I’m happy to take charge of a ‘sub-team’, just to give you a bit of structure,” suggested another in a masculine yet chivalrous manner.... .
