    OH's parents have gone :j (for a second, I thought they were staying another night!! :eek:).

    I've just listed a couple of bits on Gumtree. Fingers crossed they sell as they were both freebies, so would like a free £10 for them.

    Just got accepted for a 3 week project that will earn me a £30 Amazon voucher. That should boost the bed fund a bit :D

    What did you do on your birthday Emily? Well, I spent an hour waiting in Kwik Fit :mad:

    I booked my car in for a service today (because my sister has the day off and was able to pick me up and drop me off from the garage) and Ford informed me that my tyres were illegal and I had to go to Kwik Fit straight away to get them changed. They didn't have them in stock, but it took them an hour to find that out and tell me. And they also said they are not illegal, but do need changing ASAP - so I have to go back on Monday.

    On the plus side, I have been for a nice meal and have received £140 birthday money so far (some of which I have used to pay my phone bill :o).

    I've also managed to get some free tickets to see Bad Neighbours next week.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    Hope you have a lovely day.

    £140 birthday money is awesome. Make sure you treat yourself with at least some of it, and it all doesn't go on bills!!

    Thank you :)

    Just got another £30 from my sister, so up to £170 now. I promise to spend some of it on myself.
