Piquant_2

Thank you for your kind wishes Ziggy, Wannabee, DNM and Pernicious, it has made my day

In short the first book is about how I lost all confidence in riding, through being virtually crippled in a serious accident and how the most cantankerous, obstinate horse bought us both back into the horse world again. It's a bit of a road to recovery operation for me and I hope that one day it may help other folk through a difficult time.

I keep a diary on here, my horse stars in it quite a lot, when I returned to the site, nobody remembered me, but everyone remembered my horse!

Mythical

Today, I will:

Transfer ALL the money from my ISA into paying off my overdraft:eek:
(after working out that leaving it in my ISA will earn me <1p and transfering it to my current account will save me around £2.60 a month - and obviously increasing each time I transfer money back)

I will say bollards to the credit check, and ask my bank to reduce my overdraft by the amount that was in my ISA.:p

I will try not to cry because the only spendable money I've got from now until next friday is for the dentist.:(

Remember that I don't need lunch at work today because it's POETS day:T
