hypno thanks very much for the email everything you said makes perfect sense gonna put them into action now ...and yes you were right about the visa and the food/diesel etc ...

so in light of the emails going on between hypno and i and the news letter today this is what i intend on doing

check gas and electricity supply ...done and have changed got 62.50 (i think ) through quidco

find a travel treatment bed for reiki (gonna check ebay)
get insurance for reiki
advertise my skills (now i need someone that is good with graphics and will do it for free for this one)
have serious talk with hubby regarding alcohol /cigarette consumption (well a girls gotta try)
start writting down shopping list (i have never done this ) and sticking to it
do a food plan for the week and shop accordingly (never done this either)
contact unis on monday (i actually did this yesterday but didnt get anywhere need to become more dogmatic about this)


there are others but i think this is a good start

ok todays spends are likely to be ....£80 car parts
£100 labour for car
£3 shopping this is for a home made takeaway for both hubby and i and food for tomorrow (i hope)

Hi El, I got my couch off ebay - there were loads about, and I am sure you can get something without spending tooooooo much.

As for the design of posters/leaflets etc - I just went on publisher - bog standard on the laptop, and messed around with it until I had something semi-reasonable! Don't pay for someone to do it for you!

Insurance - Balens are the people many therapists use -google them and see what they come up with.

Let me know if I can be of any help x

thats fantastic hypno thanks ...well i did see some beds but they were pick up only and were in England a bit far for me so i will keep looking have rejoined freecycle just incase ...now i dont think i have this programme that you are talking about so i dont know what to do there ...do i have start my own business for tax purposes ? can you tell i dont know much about this at all...but atleast i am considering it as an option that is something ...

right these chore wars i was just looking earlier and i added paying bils for today by mistake yes i am paying the garage and technically it is a bill but i didnt want to add it ...

bob you going shopping? gonna pay for mine while you are there now where is that bloody stick till i catch her with my strawbs ...oh it's curry for dinner tonight if you want some ..

Publisher is on Microsoft Office if you have it......its nothing special but it does the job.

keep looking out for ebay couches - I got mine with delivery so they do happen - just keep an eye out.

Tax and Nat Ins - yes once you start earning "cold hard cash" you have 3 months to notify the revenue, so no hurry - the inland revenue helpline for self employment are really really helpful so don't ever be afraid to give them a call and ask questions.

thanks again hypno ...well the car got fixed or so we thought hubby literally pulled away and the abs and service light came on hubby returned to the guy and he tried to saythey take a wee while to settle ...erm no i dont think so then he said your abs is working so hubby and him went out for a drive and surprise surprise the abs isnt working ...then he tried to say oh your cam shaft is away you'll need to get that fixed so hubby is going nuts really exploding here ...so much so he went out to get 2 cans of lager to try and calm down ...only to find the lager has went up by 48p a can now i am sure you can imagine how well that went down
