Hurray for forum being back up :T
As it's FLW on fleabag, I have lazily relisted my previous unsold items, and will enter the garage tomorrow to see if I can move the ikea wardrobe out and photograph for possible sale, perhaps will find other 'treasures' also more suitable for fleabag than car boot:p
*neither other wardrobe nor bed frame despite being paid for have been collected yet*
Confession Time
I have inadvertently made the school girl, cardinal sin error of paying a whack of my credit card, and using it for purchases as I had run out of cash. Anyway stupidly, stupidly, stupidly I had ignored the previous two statements - as I adopted the mindset of "I'm paying a whack, so when I do open up it will be a more palatable outstanding balance...." you can guess what's coming next can't you?
My annoyance (apart from my sheer stupidity:mad:) is the 0% expires in November, and I will be unable to pay the whole amount by then, as my money is allocated for;
son's 21st, car service, car insurance, house insurance and road tax.
One very tightly tightened belt coming up until the end of the year.
Help...can't breath........:cool:

Working away and haven't had much time to post but have still been keeping my diary which I am glad about as I am having a bad bloating session so hoping I may see a pattern. Doesn't help that my diet has been rubbish today!MFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200

Bless you Natty. If it makes you feel any better I have completely blown virtually all of my meagre savings on Florida large deposit and still need to pay for remainder / park tickets / parking / insurance / car hire as well as spending money so like you will be winging the next few months. I may have slightly overstretched our future wages however I am not changing my OPs even if I have to cancel Christmas. Just hoping when they take my over paid wages we can still afford to eat!Morgage till Nov 30 GOAL MFW Sept 2016Aug 11 - £100k Aug 2016.... It's GONE!!!!!
2014 GOAL HIT 5 Stone! 2016 GOAL to be a MF marathon runner.

Thank you both, however I fear that I may bring a whole new meaning to the term 'long haul'.
I really am so annoyed with myself and need to climb out of the financial messy treacle
On the plus (there's always got to be a plus:D), I am very, very, very lucky that the light is shining in the distance (the distance currently being 2028)
