Daily Chat Thread 14th Jan

Comments

  • Hi everyone, don't usually come on to the daily chat thread, won't be staying either!! as i've got ironing to do:eek:
    Just need to sound off & can't keep boring my friends to death.
    Having to be tighter than tight with money at the moment to get rid of my debt, before my husbands contract ends in July & we go down to plop money. Can do this for a while, but into my 3rd week now & feeling a bit fed up, it's just taking so long to pay stupid amounts off, mostly due to having to balance transfer as was at end of 0% & the fees to do that.
    Just really need some positive energy to give me a kick up the behind & get me all enthusiastic or a competition win will suffice as that's been a bit slow coming too!!
    Sorry to bend your ears:p

  • kizzykizzywizzy : sending as much positive energy as I can; just think about how good it will feel to clear that card in July!!!

    maz; have you got a thread going on the 'free bingo' thing anywhere?? I just want to find out a bit more about it, and about start up costs etc etc.

    and IA, is 'Pays To Watch' doing something of you specifically? How cool!! in my rural land we don't get channel five but I will, i hope, find somewhere with sky to watch it :)

    and, anyone who will listen, I kind of like a guy ( :o ) and it's been so long I've forgotten how to flirt! HELP!!!!!

    Thanks I need it!! & yes I know it will be just great to get rid of the card:T
    AA Just saw your bit about flirting, I know I still flirt & i've been married 12 years!! ( mind you that's ALL I do ) having a good sense of humour & laughing at his jokes, might help & don't look too eager ( Big Boobs might help too !!, only joking )

    What am I still doing here??? I really MUST do my ironing!!
    Will look out for you IA, hope you can get someone to tape it for you, it's not repeated as far as I know, I'm not sure whether you can watch it online or not though.:D
    Bye for now

    Hey Lucy that's good news, I was sitting there worrying about your car in the surgery ;)

    Well, I'm back with some new pills, she wanted to up the dose but I said I'd rather just see how the new ones go first, then if I need more I'll take another one. She said a side effect of these ones is euphoria... I can live with that :rotfl: so if I start manically laughing at the gas bill, don't mind me will you :D
