    Yeah my sister texting saying wants keep out it but.... why dont i let them come with us even a week so i have company/ my younger sis of nearly 18 gets holiday of a lifetime/ if i fall ill can have help.

    so much butting out.. i replied single parents manage holidays all the time and i have planned this holiday last two years and all excited. i want to be able to have my family holiday like she has with her family

    as for my we sis without sounding like a b*tch where was her invite when my big sis and her husband and kids went florida last year. cannot be one rule for one and not the other?? and i am sorry she has a ft job can go anytime she wants with my mum/friends/ if or when she has her own family.

    I know i sound ungrateful but no and after everything said and done no xx

    Last night saw Impractical Jokers and was amazing!!! Was so far up back though lol!

    Decided changes my gas and elec to Hydro from Scottish Power. Prices are the same per month but this way I get access to pre sale tickets and can get better tickets and front row in future. No idea how you change lol! will look into today.

    Still awaiting car insurance renewal to come through. This will be changing as well too expensive when I know I can get like £13 a month cheaper elsewhere and also more in it

    I wont change my mind about holiday :)

    14 days to pay day xx

    Ok I checked online how to switch accounts. It says I set up a new account I just set up with Hydro and they do rest for me.

    Before I do this I just want to tonight get my meter readings as I know I am well over paid them and get some back before change and they take ages and change to Hydro tomorrow :D xx

  • Aw glad you enjoyed it monz.

    I'm sure if you go onto their site (through a cashback site of course) they will have a switch option somewhere??

    That £13 is £156 a month towards mini monz's Christmas!
