    ............... when the 4 year old tells you her sweatshirt is getting tight. Then says - "when are you selling it on ebay Mummy" - ho hum!

    My son does this. Everytime he can't find anything he asks if I have sold it. Or if he is being naughtyand take something off him he begs "Please don't sell it" ( even though I never have before) or if something is broken he suggests we sell it to make money for a new one. Not bad for a 6 year old.

    Also I constantly think and talk money, I realised yesterday that anything and everything me and my friends talk about I brng it round to "Well on MSE...."

    Now I know that I'm not the only 'Sad Nerd' on this board. :rotfl: :rotfl:
    I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Do you remeber the old site used to be a peachy colour with everything the other side?
    DS (3) wandered in not long after the changeover and said

    And then when I went to type that in I went DS(£):o - what a rotten Mummy I am!
