    Hi everyone. I've come to the conclusion that, although this site is fantastic for my financial health, it's really bad for my education. I'm meant to be studying for an exam on Wednesday but here I am! Have slept all morning as well so the studying isn't going well at all.:rolleyes:

    Keren, fingers crossed about the job, I really hope you get it. Just remember that we believe in you. :j :j


    IT bods are reimaging loads of computers and have told me that MSN is not standard software so I need the faculty IT managers permission to reinstall it on my machine:eek:. Part of the reimaging thing is that I'll lose administrator rights so I'll not be able to set it up myself:confused:. Is it not enough that my pc at home is throwing a wobbly (I'm hoping it just needs a new wireless adaptor installing), but until that's fixed I have to have access at work?!?

    It got taken to Iraq by my Ex, came back with an iffy power connection. I've had trouble for about 3 years and just but up with it, but it switched itself off on Saturday and I couldn't get it to work again!!

    But it's just one of those things, I saved £150 on the lot so it could have been a lot worse that it was.

    Hi there - are either you or your ex self employed and need a laptop to work - if so you can claim it on expenses?

    Unfortunately not no. It's fine, just one of those things. I'm just really going to push myself to pay it off quickly. Thanks though, my old boss would put everything through the company expenses! (it was his company)
