Thank you SS, Tilly, Fortune and HDK. I feel a bit silly for feeling silly, but I'll get over it :rotfl:
Thank you for your support and applause though. I love this community.
Still waiting to see MOT damage to see if I can make my OP this month.
In other news, received an email from G00gly with list of things I should know for interview, haven't even heard of half of them! So a lot of work to do. To be brutally honest, not feeling positive about my chances, but certainly going to try my best!

Not been able to do any Googly study so far, loads of uni work already. Going in to uni at 9 tomorrow to study and help friend who is confused about lecture today.
Absolutely shattered, watched Breaking Bad and feel emotionally drained, it was so, so good. No way to describe it.
Annoyed at circumstances just now, family owe me money. Sister is understandable, I knew when I loaned her it that it would take her a while to repay, and she's kept me updated, which is fine.
Brother on the other hand... pffft. He wanted a LOT of money, and I said no. Loaned him a small amount, knowing his previous history of never paying back on time. It's not only that, it's just that he doesn't bother to keep in contact, as if he can run away and pretend it doesn't exist. What he does with his creditors too.
So again, we are back to a point when he hasn't contacted me in about 2 weeks and is ignoring my texts etc. I guess I chanced this when I gave him the money in the first place, but I don't know how to say no..0 -

Such a difficult situation where family are involved Cal. If bro is running away though at least he's not knocking at your door asking for more!

Very true FS! I guess I'm just sick of it happening over the years and me being a mug everytime :rotfl: Although he doesn't know it, we are getting inheritance at end of this month/next month, I hope he pays his debts first so he can relax.0

Through to Glasgow today to see friend and sisters, good fun, but exhausted now. Hate driving. Pretty sure there is something wrong with my car, so waiting to see what happens with that
Tomorrow's list:
Phone and book MOT.
Post letter. DO IT!
Bring CDs to uni for friend.
Meeting at 10.15- bring notes.
Notes for DB, SE (Listen Again?) and HCI - bad Cal, behind already.
Googly study.
Speak to lecturer or notes enough?
Washing is on for tomorrow. Feel like I'm forgetting something.... :think:0 -

I'm ill - wah. Stupid Fresher's flu. Haven't missed a class yet but feels silly going, I'm so wooly headed right now
Cuddling up with movies tonight.
Mortgage wise, getting there slowly. Car tax insurance and MOT all due in same month. Ecstatic about car insurance, renewal has come in £140 cheaper than anything I've found so far. MOT booked for Wednesday. Hopefully once these things are out the way I can make OPs - I'm itching for it!
Hope everyone is well,

Awww, feel better soon Cal.
I must be the only person in the universe who hasn't watched any Breaking Bad (as yet), all episodes are on Netflicks so may just do a megawatch over a few bedtimes.
Mortgage is looking very healthy indeed :T
NPXFebruary13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
MND - Let's go for 2020 'cos it's got a nice ring to it:D
C'mon nattypants:cool:0
