    Aww, CAFCgirl, I bet I know why you're feeling a bit sad. It's the "CAFC" bit innit? :(

    They'll get back after they've had a rest. I have been a supporter of Hereford United for the last several decades, and you just have to go with the flow.

    It's all in the game. xxxx
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    Hi peeps :o

    Had a cr*p week last week, up and down but pulled socks up over the weekend so I'M BACK :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Good thing is I didn't spend so another £10 transferred to account.

    Just caught up on the thread and hasn't it been quiet :rotfl: Glad to hear everyone's been keeping within the budget though :D

    Yay! Another NSD! :) But have also realised that my savings account has enough in it to pay off my overdraft and make me officially debt free. :) Just need to fund a new car now as the head gasket is going on mine. I think most will come from a 12 month interest free credit card, and the rest lovely oh will lend me.

    good to hear that some people are paying of entire debts .... WELL DONE!!

    i've spent the morning opening new savings accounts so now have one for the car (for tax and servicing/maintenance), one for miscellelaneous (i.e. holidays etc) and one for socialising/gifts. Already have a separate ISA for wedding savings.

    And I've finally managed to have a look on the OS board and as soon as I've finished this post I'm going to do a meal planner spreadsheet which I intend to format to ensure that all my weekly shopping ingrediants get used and not thrown out due to being out of date etc.

    Have had 3 NSDs as well so feeling good. Have a good day all x

    Good Morning All

    Feeling a little bit brighter today although am cream crackered!

    Think I've just found what everyone is getting for Christmas this year thanks to my Pigsback email. Must start saving for Christmas!!!

    Will have to buy myself some lunch today, as haven't got anything in. Although might be sneaky and buy some cereal, so that I can use the milk at work :) Is that a bit cheeky?!

    Also got my hotel booking sent through for my weekend away with work. Hate to leave you all, and I'm dreading how much money I could end up spending in posh area of London!!! Must be good, must be good!!!!
