  • Hi struggling youth. When you get that print, put it somewhere close to a sealed money pot. It'll speed up the getting it process.

    Good idea. May even put up a small shelf below it and adorn the sealed pot on there. Il be on those country lanes before I know it.

    Il await my medal in the post. :)

    Il keep an eye out for the MGB prints. I need something to go in my lounge, it would inspire me to keep working hard, as its a car I will own one day, how soon, depends on mostly my work ethic and a bit of luck I guess. May even start my own diary as a journey to that & a mortgage deposit.

    I'd highly recommend starting a diary Struggling Youth. I find it helps me to stay conscious where money's concerned and make considered purchases.

    A lovely day out in town yesterday with the girls:
    • friend drove so I paid for parking - £5
    • 2nd friend bought coffees
    • delivered the MGB to her customer
    • a Thai lunch - £13 which will come from my personal spends
    • no recreational spending :A
    • popped into another friends on the way home who provided coffee and a fresh cream, home made Victoria sponge. How could anyone resist that?
    • listed the MGB as a limited edition print on Folk$y and the Bay
    • had a very light supper to make up for the cake indiscretion :o
    I am about to get some greetings cards printed and want to use 5 designs. I've decided to use the MGB, the Land Rover, the Peacock Butterfly and the Boat. Which leaves one undecided.

    Which do you think I should use?


    It would be lovely to have some help with this and I'm asking my Folk$y forum friends too. I will put the names of anyone who contributes into a draw to receive a free copy of the winning card.

    Thank you for your help

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I vote beach huts too. The cars and boat I would sent to male friends and relations, the butterfly to female but the beach huts could go to either.
    Save £10,500 - £2673.77 - 25.5%
    Pay off £7000 - £1743 - 19.4%
    Make £2021 extra income - £99.75

    This makes absolute sense! They look a lot like the beach huts along the top coast of Kent too!
