    Just going through the post over lunch. TV license is going up twice this year! Argh...

    Knock Knock, Anybody at home:wave:

    Errrrm, I didnt get the £100 cheque:mad:

    But I did get a pair of GHD straighteners and x2 vouchers for a Colour, cut and Blow dry worth £35 each so I think I came out of it quite well:D and better than the hassle of a rubber cheque. I wonder if im better off getting paid in services and products than cash. Let me think, I have a mechanic, 3 hairdressers, a florists, a sunbed shop, and a few handy men on my books, hmmm, the possibilities:rotfl:I also have a funeral directors:eek: :rotfl:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hey that's good you are being productive. I was productive yesterday. I can only cope with one day at a time. Lol. Seriously though it was my birthday yesterday and I had an interview, and got a job (one I went to an interview before) and have been chasing letting agents so today was a well earned break. OH is off tomorrow so will be busy getting flat cleaned in case we can move soon and chasing estate agents to see if there is anything to rent so making the most of the calm.
