Good evening to you all...yes it seems a bit difficult to find the thread so I have sent an email to find out what is going on and am awaiting a reply. I feel guilty though for not going to work and am gonna head in tomorrow - its decided!.. I do feel a bit of a fraud now following all your well wishes.. Maybe it was MSE karma passing through the realms...:p:p:p
Now a song.... "Meow meow meow meeeoooooooow! ( Repeat ) , "Meow Meow meow meooooooooooooow!"...It goes on like that but basically a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Black_Cat...from another Kat...get it..?:T:T:T
Another NSD for me... a possible date arranged with an old friend..ahem... books not accepted by any online store given to the charity shop... 8 things listed on eBay with one item thats rather large being watched already ( really want rid before I move ).. and a about to dismantle the rest of a book case that my cat already tore down with her fat tabby body a month ago... I hate looking at it...
Ninno well done on winning food but what is SW?..Slimming World yes..? Good on you for getting down there - your win was a sign!!
Oompa Loompa - yes I think that's a good one. Never got my head around SB yet..
Right I am off to dry my fur, tear down that stupid bookcase and hit the hay.. up at 0500 again.. NO rest for the wicked!!!
Onward and Upwards!!!“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent".0 -

Hello everyone!
Today I went swimming and half way through I realised that I was the only girl in the swimming bath among at least 20 guys :-) I was wondering looking at them whether they were struggling with debts ha ha!
Here reporting my 3erd NSD!
I will SUCCEED!No debts 🙌0 -
2 NSDs so far, but need to put loads of effort in for the rest. Back at work though and can't find the energy for getting stuff on ebay
will try super hard at the weekend !!!
OUT OF DEBT since 05/05/13!!!! Whoop Whoop!!! :T
Goals = Learn to live a happy, frugal life / Offer accepted.....fingers crossed Feb 2014:j0 -
OK, it might be the effects of swimming :-) but I have just spent at least 15 minutes looking for this threat on the debt free wannabe forum and I could not see it... Has it been moved? I have to go in my profile to answer in this thread...
Regards,
I will SUCCEED!
No debts 🙌0 -
OK, I think it's because I was posting form my phone and thus didn't have any colours or bold to work with so you'll have to excuse me for shouting:
CAN I SIGN UP PLEASE NINJAKAT!!!
I am having a bit of a money 'mare for the beginning of this month (read more on my DF diary if you want the gory details!) but it's making me even more determined to get my stuff together and DO THIS!!
Anyway, I pledge to the challenge. Totally ready for the £155 from eBay etc (I have done wardrobe clear out and have a massive bin bag of items to list) but the other £25, well I'll have to get my thinking cap on for that . . .
My budgets are as follows:
Food £70
Petrol/travel £70
Social £60 (I'm hoping to avoid spending this altogether, but this is 3 social things planned for the month)
Ceramics Class £74 (half of this is from Christmas money, and half from wages)
I can also declare first NSD of the month!
Will update my signature now, and see you lovely people soon!

Total debt: [STRIKE]£9473.62[/STRIKE] £7,384.87 22% PAIDTAF #25 NSD 8/12 | Food £43.45/£50 | eBay 0/20 | Exercise 5/18:T Proud to be Dealing with my Debt :TDFD: June 20150 -
I was listening to a guy on the radio yesterday who said that swimming is twice as efficient at getting you fit as running, so I need to go to the pool more often - thinking of which I actually have a prepaid adult card!
Today I had to spend some money - firstly for stickers for the bin bags so they would be taken away and secondly to pay to pick up a parcel from the post office that had charges added on.
What a pain!.
I did have a triumph though in that I made my own tortillas for the first time (I usually buy the ready made ones from the SM). Everyone was very enthusiastic, so that's an additional easy and cheap meal/lunch idea.Trying to keep in budget.
