Hi missymoo, thanks for reading

Haha, it was pretty amazing to be able to meet him, even if it was very briefly. I was shaking so badly and I only managed to get out a few words, so nervous! He's even better looking in real life, if that's possible!

People say my OH looks like him too so Im not complaining!

I'm trying to do things to keep my focused, and these challenges are helping my do that. Ive also started a spending diary so I know exactly where my money is going, instead of guessing because I always tend to underestimate.

I've worked out I need to put an extra £8.45 a day against my debt if I want in cleared in 12 months. I really hope I can do it.

There's no reason why you can't hun if you put your mind to it. I think there's a make £5 a day thread which would obviously get you well on your way x

Thats what I thought A combination of being frugal and upping my income should really help.

We find out soon if we will get an annual bonus, I'm not expecting anything big, but if I get something it will be put towards this

Will have a look at the £5 a day thread, thanks

Put a couple of things on Ebay tonight and someone's already bid on my wetsuit (£25 to me hehehehe)

Just watching 8 of 10 cats, love that show!

Hoping for a NSD tomorrow, who needs money when there are pictures of Jenson Button with his shirt off?!

Badger, I have a life size cardboard cut out of him in my living room! The OH isn't best pleased, but if he insists on working long hours, I need something to keep me entertained

Hmmm wonder what OH would think to one of those... Hmmm I could use my £2 collection towards it...

Oh jesus. He is just ridiculous.

I met him once. He kissed me on the cheek and I nearly died.

I HATE you!! :rotfl:

He needs to start winning a few more or at least getting on the podium so we get to see a bit more of him

It didnt cost me a single penny, my friend works in an estate agents that use Santander as their mortgage advisors so it was just part of their promo stuff. They were throwing it all out so he bought it all the way down from Yorkshire (sitting in the back seat of the car, that must have looked hilarious on the motorway!) for me! My OH is just pleased I dont keep him in the bedroom

After an amazing start to the season he's just got worse and worse Did you see his interview for the beeb? I felt so sorry for him, it must be so frustrating especially as Lewis is doing so well in the same car. What an amazing season though!

Don't hate me, but we're going to Silverstone this year. My OH got us tickets as a birthday present for me. I was completely blown away! He works for a well known oil company so he's managed to get us on the waiting list for a (free) paddock & pit lane tour... Wooooooooooooooooooooo!

Back to DFW... I'm planning a NSD today, which has meant Ive already missed out on a bacon sarnie, but its good for my purse and my waist!
