    Grr, why can't I use the smilies, they seem to be working for everyone else????

    T

    I'm guessing you're using IE?

    I have trouble with the smilies on IE, so I copy and paste them, which works ok :)

    How many Black Friday Sales?

    How many emails telling me about Black Friday Sales?

    How well behaved can I be with all of this Black Friday sales fever?

    Hey!

    Good news, no purchases! This black Friday and Cyber Monday nonsense can't even tempt me at the moment. Feeling thoroughly skint with the two house purchases going through.

    We seem to be making progress - one estate agent is far more efficient than the other. It's a wonder how one of them has any success at all. Bleeding useless. (S&W are actually ace GG). Both houses have had their Valuations... just waiting on the other bits and pieces (whatever they are) coming together now....

    Haven't been well today and spent the day in bed. Most unlike me. Feeling sick as a dog and very sorry for myself. (maybe it's withdrawal symptoms from not buying)

    You sure that's not just in comparison to the others :p.

    Hope you're feeling better.

    Yes, that would be in comparison to others!

    Mortgage offers for both B2L's arrived this morning :T

    Nothing much to report here... all quiet on the B2L front.

    Signature updated, still gives me heart failure when I see how much is now o/s... Deep Sigh.

    Wrapped boys presents for Christmas, very modest I must say. Hope they aren't disappointed!

    Couple of good meetings this week, hopefully something comes out of it.

    The balance will soon come down when tenants are paying your mortgage for you :D
