Rec'd a letter from HSBC today re bank charges, saying they are looking into the matters I have raised and will contact me with a full response as soon as he has completed his investigations - sounds like a standard letter to me!!
Not much else happening in my world, doing a boot sale on sunday, but anything raised will go towards spending money for our holiday next month."Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." Edmund Burke

Hi Tigz
I am up and down at the mo. It feels like one step forward and two steps back, what with losing keys (then finding them after paying £95 to have a new set) the wayward son nicking fags and me having to pay for them! Now I have a really stinking cold so have had a day off work. Feeling sorry myself a little methinks!!:o
Oh and my bezzie mate left me to emigrate to Australia! HUH! she went last night! Wonder if she will bump into MS London.
I can't seem to get motivated to do anything at the mo except surf MSE!!!!!
Enjoy the sale on Sunday. I have a room full of stuff that I don't know what to do with. I should ebay it really but again I don't really seem to have the energy. Let me know how your first day goes won't you:j
Sorry you feeling up & down - hope more up now. Sad news re your best mate but think of the holidays.... get saving nectar points/clubcard points for airmiles.....!!!
Hope you have a good w/end xxx"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." Edmund Burke

Well tonight is my last night of an unemployed person... 2moro I will be starting work. Am bit nervous but more so about dropping DD off at nursery. Plus how will I cope without my MSE fix???
Boot sale went well today, we cleared out our shed of bits, sold lots of books/CD's and lots of bits we had. Came back with £40ish after taking out the £5 they charge to have a site. Was good fun actually, will do another one towards the end of the boot sale season, aug maybe? So that's £40 towards spending money for our holiday."Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." Edmund Burke

Hi Sammy, GirlRacer & OneDay
I was exhausted the 1st 2 days!! lol Not had time to log on and post.
Monday was good, information overload though and in the eve went out for a meal with BF and his family (his Dad paid for us all so a no spend - yay), DD didn't sleep well monday night so I was tired yest.
Enjoying it so far though, it really feels good to be back out there, def made the right decision. Apart from DD cries lots when I drop her off, but she'll adjust to it I'm sure. Just need to let things settle down.
Have a serious cash flow problem at the moment though, BF lent me the 1st weeks nursery fees, need to find another £115 for next weeks fees, £186 for bills/rent etc. I've got it all coming from various places but not sure when I'll get it.
Sure will get things sorted.
Thanks for the messages, was lovely.

:rotfl: :rotfl: Don't worry Tigz, my little one cries the minute I go to go out the door,but the childminder assures me that as soon as I have gone, she is all smiles. Just do what I do and RUN, as fast as you can.
Don't get stressed about the money, I am sure it will all come right in the end, although i am sure it must be difficult at the moment. Just think of that first pay cheque.
I have been paid today - I love it! Whereas I used to get paid and think ooohh what can I buy, I now think which debt shall I pay off this month. My next card is on Friday and that will be cleared. I CAN'T WAIT! None of the rest will be that easy though.
Take it easy!!:rotfl:Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford
