it's not so far at allYou'll get there just fine x
I'm sorry you didn't get much sleep last night, it's awful when that happens. I normally just toss and turn but I've started think I should maybe take a notepad to bed and jot all the things down and then think them over when I wake properly. Either that or my knitting :rotfl:HSBC CC - £3000 / £3000

You are doing so well. I know it is somewhat creative accounting, but do remember you have already got a nice sum waiting for the next tax bill. So, in a way, you are already over the £20,000!
I'm usually a lurker, but you might like to look out for an "O'Tom tick remover". I bought mine from the vet (for £5, I think) and it is really easy to use and saves extra trips to the vet. It is a sort of short handled plastic thing which you slide in by the tick, lift slightly and then turn. The tick releases its hold and you can then kill it (I like to hit it hard with a hammer!).
I hope you manage to get a better snooze tonight.

Thankyou everyone. Will you celebrate with me when we reach the 20k mark ? :beer::D
Lovely to see you again Caz and hellloooo to Rosie Pud . Loving the name. Lurk no longer please. The more the merrier.
I will ask the vet about the tick remover thankyou. Mr PG usually removes them but this was huge and in a funny place and he was worried it would hurt him. We took him to a new vet and they were removed for free. He had 16 in all :eek:
The outlaws are an hour late :mad:

Anything to helpcolin and his diet made me giggle ! If he hung out with "The Cat That Shall Not be Named" he would definiately lose weight, as our horror eats everything in sight and is disgutingly greedy and has the most awful table manners. He would gobble all of the food diet or not and leave poor colin decididly hungrier and skinnier ! [QUOTE/]
Worth a try....actually colin would be too busy cowering under the bed. "The Cat That Shall Not be Named" would, doubtless, scare him, not very brave our colin...What a nightmare for you re the other money though, I'm sorry. It makes things difficult doesnt it ?Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
