Morning all,
I've got to go post some ebay stuff in a bit, why no matter how many I sell do all but one pay immediately? I like to get them away quick but always end up having to go again for that one person - still easy money though I suppose.

morning gang,
bunny (if you're arround) I can't text at the moment because my right hand is all strapped up and I've given up trying with the left one!
I don't know about 23rd yet hon, I've just started work with a new artist managing his tour. He's brand new and everything needs doing. His name is Julian Velard keep an eye out for him. he's from New York and I like him (and his band are session guys which is great, not because I'm biased but because session guys know how to play and usually just get on with their job without the bloody diva attitude). So, I'll try to get there but I just can't say right now.
No news at all on the other bit of drama, the old record company have 14 days to respond to my claim before we file court action. That's up next week so, we'll see. They haven't even asked for their radio mics back which i have here, so I've no idea what's going on.
rehearsal for the tour starts today, I'm going to find it odd not playing but i know the drummy and he is awesome. I'm going to take my noble & cooley snare though because his is a hip hop snare so it's dead bright and just wrong for the feel of this band.
That's about it here, what are you lot up to then? Any news on the jobs keren?:A

ah come on TotoToto wrote:Any news on the jobs keren?
Well, job count is now 15 since Christmas, but 1 I applied for yesterday was full time, term time. It was at the school I can see the roof of from my house so very verynear and it's a lovely school. I wrote and said that I had loads of experience to offer but wondered if they would consider it as a post working 28 hours per week.
To their credit, they have emailed me this morning and said it can only be 37 hours per week and do I want to continue or withdraw my application. I've said that sadly I would like to withdraw but I've asked that if any posts come up that are 25-28 hours per week could they let me know?
The salary isn't enough to do it full time, I'd still need to top it up with AQA at the weekends and part of the reason for getting a part time job is to try to get some of the weekend off and it's £15,000 startingI need a minimum of £18k if I'm going to go full time, which is £1200 a month. i'd then just use AQA for savings but ideally I want a post of 25-28 hours and then top up with AQA and then able to have Saturday or Sunday off.

Hello everyone. It's freezing up here today - left my gloves at my Mum's so well the rest of me is toastie warm, my fingers have frozen solid.
On a positive side, it's a new month and I've turned to February on my Jose Mourinho calendar so a new photo to drool over. Woo hoo! And a final payment on a 4 year Cahoot loan gets paid off in 3 days time. After that, £215 a month will be mine!Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!0 -
Morning all! Bleeding grey and miserable here.... the rain is lashing downa nd it is very windy. Still it was pay day this week and i have successfully paid all my bills, even the ones that i should've paid in December but never (i.e. BT phone bill - £73 bill, of which £6 was calls!! OH is loyal to them and i haven't got around to looking into switching as i think a lot of them you still have to pay line rental to BT which defeats the purpose really)
It's Erins birthday on monday, she'll be 7 (going on 14!), so me n her are going out tomorrow for a girlie day. We're getting our hair done, both are much needed, i normally only get mine cut every 6 months, and poor Ernie has only been to hairdresser 3 times in her life! Last time i cut it myself, and i thought it wasn't bad but i know the hairdresser is going to spot it when we go tomorrow!!:rotfl: :rotfl:
Then we are meeting MIL for lunch with my mum, just so me n Erin can strut about with our new hair!!
I'm thinking about going short for a change, i've had a bob of sorts for a few years now, so time for a change i think. I'm seriously thinking about a sort of Posh/sienna miller short with volume at back and long layers at front, the kinda thing you can tuck behind your ears for a different look....... any thoughts most welcome. (oh and how impossible is it to find a decent hair website to get ideas from!!! i've been looking for days!)I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0
