Night Ida
I'm halfway through reading Sea's thread but popped back to check how things were here. Yeah I agree Joek cancel. If it was one of yours they'll be in touch soon enough.
Now back to read the rest of Sea's thread. I didn't realise things had been so bad Sea lots of hugs from me.

No I'm still here - had justed popped along to another thread for a while. Might be heading off fairly soon though as my early night last night was ruined when DS woke up at 3.00am with earache. He eventually went back to sleep after a double dose of calpol and ibuprofen, a heat pack on his ear and about half an hour of unconsolable crying. Thank fully this morning all was better again.

He considers himself a bloody docotr!!

Good morning everyone! Hope the start of Easter's being kind to you all.

Now, onto more pressing concerns...

Weeell... not really.

More of a moral dilema really.

It would be smashing if I could take a holiday this year back to my fave place - New York.

I don't know when it would be, and considering the last time I went there, I managed to bag a flight for under £250 return (and the place I stay in would be a similar price for about 5 or so nights), I could get a good deal, if I time it right.

The only reason I'm even considering it, is because this will be one of the few years that I may well be able to get a bonus for each month of the year (we're not talking much here - the odd £50 - £100 per pay packet...but every little helps).

The moral issues raise their heads though - really, I should plough all this money into paying back my debts, and by and large I have everything in place to do this.

But, I so rarely go anywhere or even get enthusiastic about holidays (I'm a bit of a workaholic really...), that I think it'll do me good.

The great thing about me and New York is that I know the place really well now. It's not much, but all told I've spent the best part of a month (in various trips) there, and I just walk all over the place. I know the cheap eats, and it's one of the few places in the world that I feel consistantly happy.

But, as ever...everything costs money. I wouldn't go until much later this year really, but should I do it, so early on in the DMP life?

It almost feels like a betrayal, but on the other hand why not?

Gods, I sound like a whining baby!!!

'Yays' or 'Nays' most welcome folks

EDIT:

I'm living in a dream...thinking about it more and more...It's not gonna happen at the mo'. Suddenly things like emergency car repairs and stuff started blinking in front of me.

If I find myself with a spare £1000 (:D), then I'll go. Otherwise, maybe a quick trip to the Lake district!
