    Morning all! Still off work with a bad knee so today will be pottering around on t'internet before going to watch the England match
    Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
  • I've been messing with spreadsheets.. car loan over payments and xmas budgets... I find it impossible to budget for xmas when all your money for it trickles in over the month... :confused: I just want to go on an xmas spending spree not have to scrimp and save to be able to afford to buy people presents!

    I know what you mean hun.... I'm not even as organised as spreadsheets but i can see where you are coming from.

    Maybe you should reward yourself by taking the pressure off and not blittzing anymore debts until after xmas, just do what's needed. That'll free you up for xmas, but no getting any more debt obviously. (saying this as much to myself as you IA!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    :wave: Morning Snags are you feeling better and Tash too ? HBFS did you see speculation on yesterday's thread about what your initials stand for ? I apologise for my suggestion but I couldn't resist. Have a good day all.

    I did see the speculation and I wish to God, that it was true.

    It stands for Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger. It's a usual name I have on various other boards, but it always gets condensed down to HBFS.
