    Oh, yes I did clean them, and I didn't realise that it wasnt registering when I put in the time, was puzzled and so just rounded to nearest hour, as didn't realise it would then ask for the minutes! Will be keeping them clean in the future.

    Starbrite, with you on the hair prices. (also South East) £115 for cut, slices and roots here. But for me it is my proper treat. Dot do make up, and rarely buy new clothes, but he always had my hair done.

    Paid the weeks 'left over money' onto the Halifax C/C, I transferred the card over to tescos 0% earlier in the month, but due to my application and the interest dates clashing, £25.96 was left on the Halifax card. So just put £14.30 on there.
    Halifax cc - £11.66
