  • it so scary how much money they give you. I remember a million years ago I had a Barclaycard (at uni) the limit stayed at 500 for ages, more recently all my credit card limits have easily been over 2000, I remember getting a call of Barclaycard asking why I never used their card, and i said its cos the limit is so low ---so they increased it to 750!!!! funny how some are sensible and others just are not!

    nope, Barclaycard is currently at £8500, they raise mine quite often but I asked them to put it down so that's where it is now! funnily enough if they suggest giving me a low LOB or something it might get used then...

  • Didn't spend too much today. Rent and my Barclaycard over payment meant £470, then petrol and cheese and potatoes!

    Started some more MB type stuff and am looking for about £30-£40 profit on that! Also made £14 from an offer ages ago that I only layed today (no pervy jokes please :p ) rather than risking it going for nothing.


    Also Woofer went back to the vets for his checkup. Sadly he might have to have his toe amputated if the infection doesn't clear up in a fortnight! :(

    It's one thing after another for the poor mutt at the moment but it doesn't seem to be causing him any grief. He's still munching everything he sets his sights on! :rolleyes:

    So fingers crossed. :o

    Aww fingers crossed Woofer's toe gets better soon.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    it's amazing how they manage to adapt SS but hopefully you won't have to find out.

    I'm sure he will. It's just horrible having to take him to the vets, push him in a cage and leaving him! It's truly horrible! :(

    But fingers crossed. 2 weeks of antibiotics and foot baths! :D
