    Hi Pania

    Its tough, isn't it, tracking everything you want to do and making sure you can do as much of it as possible. I'm defo multitasking on the computer right now, have really got the hang of the bingo on in the background now, and only thanks to you - haven't won anything yet, tho at least its an opportunity that I'm trying. I'm more or less de-Christmassed, just have to open up the garage to put some stuff in. Hope you're feeling okay - the weekend sounds brill, in spite of having been stuck in the house. I've enjoyed mine, just don't want to start work again!

    just tried IC bingo, didn't win.

    Don't think there is going to be a problem withdrawing, it's all seperate companied running off the same site. good luck!!!

    Yep the situation with the bank was pretty bad but i'm not to concerned about it. it'll get sorted out one way or the other.

    didn't hear back from the suprise interview. they wanted me to go in and see them but i made my excuses, they are a small company and i had concerns about their profitability in the current market. didn't want to leave a stable company and be made redundant in a few months!!

    How are things with you now hon?

    I'll have a go at a couple of others later - am having a nice peaceful Sunday which doesn't need disturbed by bingo sites yet :D

    Probably a wise move on the job front, I'm sure something will come along in time, maybe best hanging on where you are for the time being if you're thinking about NZ in April ;)

    Things are OK here, work is very boring even after 3 days back, so am having a look around for other things. Like you though I don't want to leave a decent permanent job unless it's for something much better, too many of the things I want to do seem to be on temp contracts and not sure I can handle the stress of having to find something new again after 6-9 months! Other than that, my flat is finally starting to look lived in thanks to Christmas money/ vouchers... and OH is being quite lovely at the moment (touches nearest wooden thing just in case)!

    hi Pania glad to see you back on here.
    Hope you get old Abbey sorted, it's not going to affect your reviews at work is it? I hope not.
    I've got to take the christmas tree down but want to spend this arvo outside in the garden and greenhouse putting seeds in trays and trying to figure out my greenhouse heater.

    Hi pania, hope you are ok, i think you made a sensible decision about not going to a company you are not sure of. i still just have to get rid of the red and green theme on my sig, then everything christmassy is gone (except for the stuff i got in the sales today ready for next year!!!

    Hello Lemontree Hon!!!! hows the greenhouse heater? have you figured it out?
    The Abbey thing may affect my review at work, just depends on whether i can get it removed quickly enough to avoid detection!! not sure they'll listen to reason and will give them the perfect excuse to give me the boot:eek:

    ok, so i've just won £8 at bingoliner, actually won a lot more than that but hadn't deposited so it all remained as bonus and thus non withdrawable!:mad:


    Had to deposit £20 to be able to withdraw the £28 then discovered i cannot withdraw it for 24Hours!!!! still it will be an extra £8 when it comes back that i didn't have previously.:D

    Hiya KC, yep it is quite tough wanting to do stuff and not affording it. Have managed to keep some money back to cover the shortfall in next months pay and am hoping i won't need all of it but feb is going to be a short one also so the "non essentials" will have to wait and sadly no matter how much of a good second income the canine training will bring me i simply don't have the spare cash at the mo to set it up, hence the bingoing and other stuff i can do, speaking of which must get some ebay listing done this eve. :eek:

    Busy busy!!!:D

  • Be carefull with the bingo sites as most are the same company meaning they block your address if you sign up to too many for the free tenners!

    hi i didn't get the greenhouse heater sorted but did get the seeds in, and managed to dig up all the strawberry plants from the veggie plot and put them in pots. Think i may try to sell them when we get round to doing a car boot unless Hypno wants them for her allotment (i'm not going mad am i she's got an allotment?????)
    Did put the mustard seeds down on the veggie plot so they can grow up and become green manure.

    I hope you get Abbey sorted so it doesn't cause you problems they are so out of order, but then again they're just like all the banks.

    Are you still heading my way this week? you're welcome to stop by if you are (just out on Tues and Wed).

    Hi Pania,

    Sounds like you've had a busy weekend! I was just wondering about the mobile phone software thing you mentioned - sounds interesting - is that something that anyone can do, and if so, how?!

    Hi Pania - sounds like you're dfw-ing like mad, hope its not too exhausting. Lemon Tree - quick hijack, what you're doing with the garden sounds amazing, I'm really impressed- never got round to growing green manure, thats brill. What are you planting in the seed trays?
