    That's an achievement as it so hard to do anything in the pain you are in.

    I know! I did it in very, VERY small chunks, but I was pleased to get it done, some time this week though I need to sit down with a file box and basically, well, file! Bank statements etc :mad:

    I have scissors that i use to do that, but maybe keep one on ice in the fridge, just in case.

    I'm not sure I want to BOB, basically as soon as Dr Dragon is confirmed in post somewhere I think it is bye bye CC! It was handy when he was off but I don't like the beggers!

    I know what you mean..Perhaps one of those pre loaded ones for after then?Sometimes you do need one, but you are right.. that way you definately will be rid.

    Hmm that's not a bad idea, so if I wanted to save for some clothes for Christmas and gifts etc it would already be on there, I might look into that when I have cleared this one off.

    Okay after all the talk of getting shot of the CC I needed to use it! It's a bit bad when every pair of knickers you pull out are scraggy and horrible and a pair of joggers is holey and horrid AND my bras are not up to snuff, so M&S online it was!

    In other news Dr Dragon did not get the job he went for on Friday, but I have got all my NaNoWriMo done and dusted 5 days early! Back to cleaning and stitching for me now LOL

    Sorry to hear Dr Dragon's news - hope he gets something soon.

    As for an M&S splurge - I don't blame you, am hoping to use any birthday money I get at the weekend to buy myself a smart trouser suit and a skirt so that I can mix n match:D

    Thanks Horace, it wasn't so much a splurge as necessity but I hate using the CC for it as I am trying to clear that, it seems everytime I get somewhere close I need to use it again:mad:

    When you need stuff then you have to get it..and if it needs to be on CC no problem as you are clearing it off as well.
    Sorry Mr Dragon didn't get the job ..hope one comes soon..I'm sure it will.

    Thanks Taxi, the job would have solved some problems but he didn't really want the job (it wouldn't have stretched him at all, indeed it would have been a step backwards, but it would have been a job and would have paid the bills!).

    I'm annoyed about the CC because I had it right back down and now it is back over £2k which I need to clear again :mad:

    You will soon have it clear in no time...not worth beating yourself up over it ( although i do the same) but it is done now and can't be undone..i know they don't take undies back;) :rotfl:
