    A very quick update from me. Two paydays this week but no tax rebate as yet!! Money shuffled to leave enough for the month and a payment of £239 means...

    Think my hubby is also planning this - he's still got loads of stuff to put on there - it's a shame the £300 he got last time has just seemed to have disappeared!:(

  • What model is it? I can't remember which one, but they are replacing all of a certain model from a few years ago cos of a fire risk... might be worth a look :)

    It's at 80 Gb video iPod, just after I got it they rebranded it to Classic. I'll have a look around for changing schemes but I have a feeling it's way too old.

    Wow I miss a few days and so much goes on:

    Jakes mum - Little used to have regular blood test and I hated it one time it took three of us pinning him and drawing blood from him. He was only 5 at the time but he was a strong blighter!

    K3olly - Having that mood myself as I'm £115 worse off since the tax man changed my tax code and stressing!

    Eyes wide open - Ironing does take a stiff upper lip. But just what a great start you'll have to 2013.

    Catmort - well done on the weight loss

    Angelbob - know the feeling on the essay, got 8 account plans to write this weekend! have no motivation!

    Mrs Addicted to Spending - Good luck for the exam

    Fallen - Have you checked the apple forums, they can be very helpful sometimes. Hope you enjoy the movie. Its one I really want to see

    Psycopathbabble - That sucks about the shares but its something to look forward to next month.

    Well bit fed up today as my credit card statement came through and when I changed the statement date I didn't get charged any interest but got double this month. Ouch. Just been collecting kids so taken 3 kids up to Greggs for lunch as I can't be bothered to cook.

    Got expenses, account plans, weekly shop and if I have the energy some flying for a local campaign for faster broadband! Why can't weekends be longer!

    I've been spending today, bought 2 toilet trainer seats (unpadded as easier to clean) and 2 stools, 2 packs of pull ups and I'm sooo proud of my nephew. I told him the whole way round the shop that we were buying his potty, he held on until we got home then ran to the bathroom to put the trainer in place. Whipped off his trousers and his nappy and he stood looking lost as he doesn't quite understand yet, started widdling standing up all over the floor eeeeep!!!! Grabbed him, sat him on the trainer and he got sooooo excited about going in the big boy toilet that he was allowed to push the button :)

    My sisters been trying for ages to get him to do that for ages but she can't afford to buy a trainer or stool and he won't go in the potty itself. So £35 well spent I think. Had to double up as needed consistency at my parents and my sisters.

    No debt busting from me today, but checked account and work are paying me £150 more than I expected on Monday. I'm going to vanquish Vanqu1s once and for all. Can't cancel the card until OH is back though as he's going to use it as an additional cardholder so he can hire a car in Canada, they won't let him without a credit card.

    Hope everyone else is well and hugs to those that need it xx
