Over fifty grand!! Well done everybody, a truly incredible start to the year. It's been a pleasure to add up.

So they can annoy the blind, as well.
And it's over to you, rsdiscos....

Och what did you go for ABB?

He has been job hunting all day so far and applied for a few after rewriting CV this am as It was on laptop that broke monday :mad: I will still be following thread and trying to pad when I can.
Thank goodness for two council tax free months as this will help I think might put it on the CC just to help lower it a bit more. dunno yet.
On other news what a great total for January thevinternet and thank you. Good luck rdiscos for February counter upping.
Yeah £500 is not worth losing sleep over. Just do what you can and a huge difference to what it was. At least now with all the padding you'll be able to LIVE and not just survive on a reduced income...But sorry to hear of your news non the less....
So zombie here. Only had 6 hours sleep each night for the past 2 nights so exhausted....
Might go for a wee nap pre bed at 9.30 or so...Don't know...feel like I'm about to become keyfaced and have a terrible sinus pain from being so tired
E:dance:
I believe in the power of PAD

I went for the chop :rotfl:I have had long hair most of my life and when I have gone shorter it has not been great. But I have been thinking about it for a while and just thought 'why not?'. So i have a short choppy bob with blonde highlights. The kids at school tomorrow will be a good test of its success
As for our song how about 'P-A-D-I-N'
We are
P, paying
A, accumulating
D, downsizing
I, interesting
N, number crunching
Sorry for my late night cheesieness. Must be the affect of the bleach fumes
