    let me know how it goes Jacks, i certainly worked for my friend, she got the offer doubled. But then again it wasn't an expensive car.
  • Taxi that is brilliant. You feel like that sometimes dont you that life is just work, housework and sleep. It will all be worth it in the long run though. If we are all still alive then :rotfl:

  • Hi long haulers... can I please have a number to add to my sig. My DFD is May 2011 but I am about to throw an extra £700 at my cc debts after working lots extra :j and intend to bring DFD down to Sept 2010 - my 40th birthday :bdaycake:
    Second and final LBM 01/01/11 Nearly got there but fell of wagon. HAVE to do it this time :mad:
  • Morning all.

    My debt is nearly down to 95% of salary now so heading in the right direction. Had a touch the other day. Recieved a letter from my Electric/gas suppliers. I was entilted to a refund :j . Dont know how they work that out as i am on a key and card meter. Anyway phoned (freephone No of course) and a cheque for £1.17 is on its way :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: . Now before my LBM i would have told them not to bother but now have the cheque and will bank it. Every little helps.

    FF. I must have missed something. Do you have a new name now :confused:

    Take care
