*Change of plan - and maybe some good news!*

Snaggles

Ooooh, I forgot! I got paid today....as in ACTUALLY paid, not just 'received a blank payslip'! :T

The reason is that because I worked up until mid April last year, I actually got a bonus of £300! Woohoo. :j

I'm going to put it into the 'pot' for April though, because I will only get a part salary, and to be honest I haven't got a plan in place to deal with that!

Snaggles

Bunny, I will hopefully be online later too, although 'drinking and Singstar' was mentioned by Stu earlier! :rotfl:

nice news about the £300! If they are quick to send the £300 from the interview, then the drinks will definitely be on you!

Snaggles

I know - I was just thinking that I have 'earned' or won £750 that I wasn't expecting this month!

Sadly though, £150 is going towards the visa, £300 towards next months bills, and £200 will pay for new laptop (if BIL ever works out what he has deleted and manages to get it working again....he works in IT too, lol!).

So £100 left, and a new microwave needed, plus I will HAVE to buy a couple of bits of work clothing, as I hardly have anything.

So much for 'money is coming easily to me', I think my motto should be 'money escapes easily from me'!

At least you now can talk about what he looks at on the internet via the server logs :eek:

I wouldn't know how to BB, but I think I would be scared to find out anyway!

Although I'm pretty sure it would all be Leeds United football club. :rolleyes:

Tesco do a 700 watt Value microwave for £22 if you're not too fussed about whizzy knobs and bells on it.

Or, if you want buttons rather than a dial

or, you can have the Value one, in silver, pretending it's not a Value one, and pay £12 more just for the pretty paint!

I'd avoid the cheapest tesco one.. the same one in asda has had to be recalled because they keep catching fire!! lol!

Snaggles

OMG really?? I am terrified of microwaves as it is!

I know it's shallow, but I REALLY want a silver one - it would match our kitchen so much better. Although this time I'm not making the mistake of buying a combination one that grills things too.

Well, I assume it grills things, however, in all the time we have had it, we have NEVER pressed that button!!

Yeah go for the cheapest digital - I can't get to grips with knobs - poaching eggs and croissents all require sub 1 minute blasts and it's too hard with knobs....
