    Oh cafcgirl,
    you naughty person!!
    but you are right... no way is he sexy ...
    but with all of his money the next question is...
    could we cope with him with a very thick & strong bag over his head??

    & would we be more willing to do so if we were named in the will/insurance!

    Answers please by 8.30 am!!

    ok I'm half an hour late but the answer is still NO on the CE front....

    I'll stop with my jesting now I promise Peachy xx

    God I dont wanna go to work!!!!!!!!!
    Although yesterday I was quite lucky and it felt like it went really quickly... might even be cheeky and ask my part timer to stay on and go home early..... or is that mean?! Trying to think of when I've got some time owing from LOL

    Hope everyone has a good day. I'll be on an ebay rummage mission when I get back home so suggestions for things that I may have that sell well, I dont mean loads of money but that just sell lol!!!

    Hi

    I think is just the challenge for me!

    I have just registered to this board but I have been lingering for a little while. I have serious spending issues and this will hopefully help as I want to be debt free asap.

    This week I have already spent:
    Hot chocolate * 2: £4.06
    Big bag of crisps: £1.39

    So that is a total of £5.45:eek:

    And the weekend hasn't even started yet!

    Can I join this challenge please.
    I don't think that I actually spend that much on unneccessary's but i'm sure we'll soon find out!!

    I took £10 out on tuesday and so i'm gonna count that as my £10.

    so far this week... the only thing have spent is £1.69
    £1.50 of this was bus money and not sure what the other part was from.

    So that is £8.31 left.

    I don't get paid until 30th June. So can;t take £10 out at the start of the week until after then. So for the first few weeks will have to see how I go.
