    oh my god u offered to clear it for him!!!

    You are too good to him....
    Let him make his own mistakes..... the only way he'll learn. I know you want to protect him from it, since you know what its like to be in debt....

    Glad to hear about the new fish.... check they look clean and healthy where u get them from though. I got a diseased fish once and it almost killed all my other fishies...

    yes i was having a bad momment i think, as after i offered i thought of the implications which is why i was glad when he refused to close them all down :rotfl:i think i am too good for them all, mum keeps hinting at thigs that have broken down in the house but i wont get anything as i know she will never pay it back

    will do cafc girl, i get them from a nice place anyway so hopefully they should be fine and they will be seperate in a new tank... i will have to get some and post a picture here for you to see :rotfl:will have to wait till next weekend :)

    We had two goldfish that started off tiny, and ended up looking like koi carp! We bought them when we first moved in together, one died a few years ago, but the other one only died recently - I miss having them around, although I don't miss cleaning the tank!

  • aww cafc girl i will get you some pics :)

    snaggles i have gold fish too but i must say they are easier to maintaion than my tropicals as with my tropicals if one of the levels goes wrong its like bam the whole thing goes wrong :o anyways they are looking fine so far, just going to ask mum if she can drive me to the garden centre on sun/sat :rolleyes:

    right i am still panicing here as icesave has now locked my out of my account online and the money is somewhere in the finacial atmosphere :eek: breath breath... i am sure it will be fine :rotfl: so accounts today before bills tom... oh i so hate the 1st :rotfl:

    £65.00 ~ bt
    £11.00 ~ house ins
    £28.00 ~ charge
    £24.00 ~ bus card
    £20.00 ~ spends untill the 15th
    £10.00 ~ paypal

    so £73.81 + £100.00 (new overdraft applied :o) = £173.81 and all of the above is £158.00 :cool: however the overdraft will be removed from my account the day after pay day :j

    umm driving instrutor i think has let me down, oh joy. He said he would keep me, so i rebooked text him everything fine, i asked about lessons and mentioned i cant have any until this weekend due to my money situtaion... he said he would phone me sat night (i dont like phoning him as he could be on a lesson) he didnt... its now tuesday and i feel like i have been strung along :mad: i will text him tommorow if he hasnt made contact by the end of the day, i just feel in limbo :confused: how would i go about getting a new instructor and say oh btw my test is in x days :rotfl: fantanstic

    Sorry to hear about your fishes PAP. I hope your fish shoping for new ones goes well.

    I think younger brothers just plain resent their big sisters "interfearing" (sp?) ie trying to help and get them not to make mistakes that you've made. I know mine hates me playing the big sister card :rolleyes: . Oh well... it does however mean I'm one of the first ports of call when things go a bit wrong for him though! :rotfl:
