Evening all,

Firsty after a catch up I find most of you need one of two thins ...some need a lovely big HUG (especially Sally and Durham xx)

and some need a pat on the back for making sooo much money this month. WELL DONE.

I managed to get £10 cash on collection from fleabay today (should have been £9.44 but she said I could keep the change yippee)

So now I am up to a nice big £774.18...hope to gets more tonight as more sales end and paypal serves up money...Will declare tomorrow night.

Nighty Night all...

Just a quick rant and warning... I have checked my credit report with Noddle, Equifax and Experian (used to do this regularly but didn't need to of late) and discovered lots of random searches. Some are just ID verification which correspond to Sun Bingo and Fab but a couple I don't recognise the company and they are coming up as anti-money laundering checks. I have contacted the ref agencies to track them, but I assume they are bingo sites but I'm really naffed off because they are not just ID verification like they say on the terms and conds.

And to top it off it has knocked my credit score on noddle down from 4/5 to 2/5.

And before anyone says anything, yes I know scores mean nothing but I'm still annoyed. It took me 2 years to get my credit report all mended and now it's suffering!

Rant over

I'm going to declare now though, which will make me feel marginally better...

Yay!

That is fab Nat, shame they don't run in my area .

DM - Sorry to hear about your mum . I'm sure that she'll be fine , they will probably just need to do the usual check ups, and possibly put her on medication to prevent it happening again. My dad didn't know about the first stroke he had, and he was back to his usual self within a couple of weeks .


Well I've had a carpy day today too. Was cleaning up this afternoon, nipped upstairs thinking DS2 was happily playing in the next room, I came back down to find that he'd walked in, grabbed the bottle of kitchen cleaner spray and was sucking on the nozzle! :eek::eek::eek: He had his hand on the trigger (which was still in the 'ON' position ), so may have swallowed some. Needless to say, we spent yet another day at A&E - all three of us have now been there within the last month! He seems absolutely fine, so probably didn't swallow any, I just need to keep an eye on him tonight.

One thing that annoyed me though is that the nurse told me that as I was his legal guardian they would have to inform SS! I couldn't care less that they told them (His SW will be fine about it, and it won't affect anything anyway as he is mine now), it's just the fact that they are legally obliged to tell tales to SS simply because he's not biologically mine - like he's somehow 'at risk' just because he doesn't live with his so called, 'real parents' :mad:. I jumped through bloomin' hoops and went through hell to get him, and it was a lot harder than simply giving birth as I did with DS1, so if anything he should be considered a lot safer than most other kids!

OK, rant over. It just really annoys me that living with someone other than your parents is always made out to be such a negative thing rather than a positive. My god, they pumped him full of drugs every single day through the pregnancy and almost killed him in the process, how can living with me possibly be worse than that???


OK, rant really is over this time, lol. (:D<-- see, I've got my happy face on again!). Right, I posted two ebay items today so will be back later to update. Checked out Parcelmonkey - their prices are amazing :T Unfortunately 'Food' is one of their prohibited items. Gonna send through Parcelforce (through TCB :money:), will drop off at the PO tomorrow - would love to leave it until thurs so I can add it to March's total :o, lol, but can't really keep them waiting for it.

I think the money laundering are searches you've done certainly they correspond to my searches on mine. In that case lenders don't see them. Someone else mentioned the bingo sites and that they queried and they are only ID searches so again don't affect potential lending.

This has got to be the hardest month in the 1.5 years I've been doing this challenge! Finally though, I have made target...but only by the skin of my teeth, a mere 88p over!
