    Back again :p

    Stupidly early thanks to drunken OH falling out of bed at 5am and waking me up :mad:

    Still, got work at 8am so will be heading out soon.

    So, update for the week thus far ... 19 items on Ebay, 7 with bids, total so far £34.15 with 6 days left to go. Lots of watchers so hoping other items will get bids too soon!

    Got my credit report from experian last night so i know exactly where my personal debts stand now, just gotta sort out OH debts.

    Letter from Bailiffs regarding OH council tax debt from years ago (that I mentioned in my OP), I emailed them when I got home last night saying I can pay in full 18 March 2008 and requesting they withold action etc, will see how they reply!

    Good news yesterday from work that my annual bonus (that I receive in my wage on 18 March) will be 11% of my wage, which is higher than any other year. After tax etc I'll hopefully be left with approx £1k :p Priority payments being £136 water bill and £279 C/Tax bill I just mentioned. Received £111 gas bill but Eon are taking direct debits for gas/electric so that's sorted.

    P.S Have a nice day everyone and I'll see you on the other side of work if I'm still awake!

    Ooh, and yesterday received £20 High Street vouchers from Eon (the second lot received now) so off to bulk buy loo rolls/washing powder/kitty litter etc from Wilkos after work!
