    Hiya hun I think you SHOULD have the holiday. Have a look at ceridwen's post on apinnyons thread where she says everyone needs to have a life outside of just earning a living ( I paraphrase) . Btw ALL of ceridwen's posts are well worth reading. XX

    I really do want to go but I am just a bit worried that I really do not have the right to spend money on myself and enjoying myself when I still owe so much money. :confused:

    Ciara PLEASE stop being so hard on yourself. What's that saying about all work and no play ? You have your debts in hand now and I'm sure you won 't ever let things get as bad again. You deserve a reward and an incentive.

    There are apparently eight definitely going and a further four maybe going including myself so far but I am not really sure about the final numbers. :D I am a bit worried though because I inherited from the northern european side of my family and I get burnt quite easily. :o

    I really really do want to go but it will be in the middle of summer because a few of us can only go during the school holidays and I know that it will cost an awful lot more than I think I could ever really justify spending on me. :o

    I know that you are right but I think that right now I should limit my rewards to a weekend in Worthing or something similar. :o
