    Hi Brogden,


    Pads in quietly on her beautiful paws... I've left the claws at the door....


    So how did it go.. don't keep us all in suspenders.....:D


    Puzz. x

    Hello Puzz :)

    I was never really that worried about your claws you know. I thought you were a cute fluffy little puzzcat.....a ball of wool and you're happy ;)

    I hope I didn't give the idea that I was going to do something absolutely massive today :o !! I have the week off work and I have cleared all of the buddhas, taken down the washing line and moved the garden furniture in preparation for the tree men. I have also stripped the paper off the corner of the kitchen where (hopefully) a new massive MSE Fridge-Freezer will go and removed some tiles, bought two new cupboard carcasses from B&Q with doors and made a payment in the town centre :o !! The payment was for my Seedycash 'long term' payday loan - a sad, sad thing but I will now be £165.00 a month better off :T !!!

    I let this horrible loan run for a bit because I decided I didn't want any new defaults on the credit file. It was my only interest charging debt. I haven't looked for a couple of years but think my defaults must all be 2 to 3 years old now. I will get around to doing Noddle but I don't want to distract myself any more and I cannot change what I cannot change :(!!

    I am pacing myself this week off work.....I don't want to 'pop my cork' if you know what I mean as my biggest creditors cannot discuss my account with me until Friday as it is being taken back from the useless Wuscot :mad: That is when I can discuss it with them. I willl be attacking some of Mrs. B's in the next couple of days anyway as I do want her to be debt free asap :)

    Your beautiful paws are welcome on my floors anytime :) !!!

    Make those calls. I'm so excited. Can't wait to see how it pans out for you.

    Thanks a million INOD :)

    I could use a more vulgar expression but I don't want to 'pop my cork' as I must keep some muscle power for my big one which can't be discussed with them until Friday, once the woeful collection agents have been sacked and I can deal directly.

    Had a virtual vision - it was on the ethereal M&*S page that knickers are 3for2. ;).
    Very disturbed by the vision but I'm OK now.

    Hello NOAh :)

    It's unbelievable the number of ladies on here who talk about their knickers. I can count about 7 or 8 in the last few weeks :eek: !!

    Its very disruptive for a male in the minority as when trying to concentrate on money saving / pension / debt mortgages, one's mind keeps wandering to a subject which it seems to prefer :o

    I hope you are well my love - take some time to relax and clear your mind this weekie :) Something tells me you are in 'thought overload' so don't worry about knickers too......we can do without if necessary ;) !!

    Sorry Skinny - it's Brogdenesque 'pickyness' :o

    Everybody says F&F's (Full and Finals.)

    If we're trying to get a discount on a debt it can't be 'Full' can it? I started to refer to them as P&F's ie. 'Partial & Final' and reported as 'partial' on the old credit file to prove I'm right :) Ha.....!

    I don't think you need to worry about these do you......lucky lady :)

    Oooooh........Eagle eyed INOD :cool:

    Yes......with tears in both eyes I waved my hanky at ARC Europe as they sailed over the horizon, becoming invisible to the eye :( sob..........

    They said they would never contact me again (lump in throat.....:()

    Its like losing a friend or lover :(

    Debt of £687.73 settled for £420.00. I tried for £415.00 fancying a chip shop lunch but alas......no :(

    Onward and upward :)
