Hi lilmissmup, thanks!:beer:

Had another drama today the sis in law got rushed back to hosiptal this morning, as when they stitched her up they stitched up a blood clot without knowing which then burst.:eek:
Shes back out again now hopefully all will be fine again.

My OH goes up north with his family every year to see he nan and grandad,and every year i stay down here with my family! So we open our presents from each other the day before he goes. So yesterday i opened mine and in with the presents he had given me £150 to spend in the sales:j as he said he hadnt brought me much after the wheels got sent back. So off we went to asda as i needed a coat and i new they had a coat sale on and found a lovely coat half price £25.Oh and i picked out alovely necklace only £14 the rest i will use in the sales!

I joined the sealed pot challenge earlier this week so took my change from the pot i had been storing it in and transfered it into the massive piggy back OH got me! Its so cute!:o

Last day at work 2morrow thank godness! Will probably finish early as its christmas eve but as i have to clock in wont get paid for leaving early.:(

lilmissmup

Congrats on the bargains.

Yay on joining the sealed pot challenge, put anothe 4 £2 coins in mine yesterday, i had 5 but had to spend one, was gutted (i need a life.....) but every shop seems to be giving them out at the moment and i can't bear to spend them!!

Hi I've been reading your diary and on the house situation I was wondering if you have looked into the 'part buy part rent' options... I don't know much about them and it my be housing associations do them but I don't think you have to go on any list or anything I think you just buy 50% and rent 50%. Its a way of getting on the housing ladder.

Someone else on here may be able to give you more details I'm sorry to be vague but I know they exist

Good luck with everything and well done on the full time hours :T

Thanks:D Yeah i have looked in to them online there and expensive to do and by what other people have said is a pain when you want to sell up. The rent they charge you on top of your mortage payments is alot. But i heard there is a new scheme being started near me where you just pay the mortage but only own 75%. That i would be interested in!:D
