    Hi Sista,

    firstly I'm a bit scared in case I moan.........:rotfl:

    that said just wanted to say thank you, you gave me the kick up the !!!! I needed and last month I managed to get a few extra shifts at work and earned enough to clear my smallest debt. S@antander o/d who were charging me £25/mth out of the £27.96 I was paying them!!!!! Don't think the DMP people will be too pleased but it was really getting me down and as soon as the payment has cleared I can update my sig as owing less than £20000! Thanks again :j

    You need a woop woop for how incredibly positive you are Sista :T

    Glad you have your tv back :T I am missing football already :) so am consoling myself with the tennis .... Until the football season starts again !!!

    Meant to ask .... Did you have a dodgy perm , blue eyeshadow and a "Frankie says " t shirt ? .... Or maybe that was just me :rotfl:
