    Evening peeps. :)

    Yes Bubbs, I'm here and yes I got the post so a big thankyou to you and Willowwispy. :A

    Been a really up and down day! Firstly up with the post. :) Then down with the MIL banging on the door saying she wanted the cooker and 2 wardrobes!! I told her to politely go away so she called the police. :eek: saying I threatened her. Police came and when I gave them my side of the story and the events that have gone on THEY told her to go away. I was then informed by the police that I had no tax on the car! Wife has sent it to DVLA for a refund!! She has also cancelled the insurance. Back to having no car. :(

    Then a couple of friends came round, 1 with a few beers and the other with an electric heater. ! lent me a tenner to get some baccy and food so I went to T's and had a good nosey around for some cheapie bits. Couldn't find any until I found these.

    First one had a SEL for £12, the other had one for £14. Both scanned at 25p :D Good if you have screw in light bulbs. Only bought these 2 as cash is a bit tight. :o

    Anyway, off to answer Qoc as I can see she's messeged me on FB. :rotfl:

    Scamps!

    First time I've been on her for a few months, really sorry to hear what's happened to you.

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Ixia we're not allowed to offer stuff to each other like this. We get in trouble. Am sure Redfox can forgive as you're new but just so you know!

    No offers of stuff via PM or face the wrath of the board guides :)

    I now know that this is fresh fish, but Does anyone know if this fish has already been frozen?

    I have bought fish before from the counter and been told that it is not safe for refreezing as it is pre frozen for transportation purposes.
    tia

    The ones I got had a mixture of ice/water in the pk so I am not sure. Going to make a fish pie tomorrow x

    I ve lost my mojo too.

    The amount of bills and what I have to do this year is stressing me.

    And my lack of pay rise too:mad:

    I really would like to go to tosco and see if there is anything to sell or put away.

    Phoned British gas but keep failing credit check:mad:


    Signed up for experian. Need to check my identity:mad:

    Oh needs dentist. Went to try and get freebie at hospital. Told him to go away. Probably going to need root canal knowing my luck.

    I only want to pay off some of my mortgage so I can get a good deal later on in year.

    Have to think of mad and pull myself together.

    There's a list of dental schools here.

    Might be more than one dental school needing volunteer patients within travelling distance. Major work might require multiple visits. Standard will be high. I got good work done by a mate- said it might last 20 years. 35 years later his work still holding together.

    Lots of people save a bit of cash going to eastern Europe where costs are a lot cheaper. Easyjet/ Ryanair might be helpful there.

    Good luck!
