    Really? I haven't had any problems so far, maybe the site is just being a bit slow tonight?

    Morning All

    Im feeling better today but yesterday and the evening was rubbish. Not only did i feel unwell but Dylan decided to swallow a massive ball of tin foil. It got lodged in his throat and he panicked and lay on the floor gasping for breath. I was so worried, but just kind of made him open his mouth, and tried to see it, i couldnt, but eventually he swallowed it. :rolleyes: Vet said to keep an eye on him, if he doesnt "pass" it within 24 hours he will have to go in and have an xray as it could block his intestines. Poor sod scared himself silly, and me! So i let both the cats sleep on the bed with me last night. Monty thought it was fantastic and kept cuddling me. :p

    And then there was some sort of fire over the road at 1am (just as i was drifting off) and we were nearly evactuated but they got it under control. By the time i fell asleep it was about 3am. Then the cats woke up at 4am, so i chucked them out, then i got up at 6am. :j

    Short week for me this week though so cant wait for my lie in!

    well done on the horse Nicki.

    Oh dear Amy-what an eventful night you have had!!Hope Dylan is feeling getter now and the tin foil has ...er...made its final journey?! Glad you've got a short week-youre gonna need a lie in by the sound of it!
    happy you are feeling better though, there seems to be loads of people leaving recently and with hayley away it was just me,jen, nicki and aussie, we were getting lonely lol!
    oberon has been popping in which is lovely but havent heard anything from tubbs and we seem to have lost a lot of people who signed up for the challenge. Oh well at least we are stll here and doing well!!
    Cant wait to see the results of your plan jen to see what you are going to pay off-its getting exciting, you are so near your debt free day!!!,you're buying the virtual cakes that day lol!!!

    Thanks MM. Dylan seemed to be doing well this morning, didnt see the foil this morning but shouldnt be too hard to see, its bright orange :rotfl:

    Yeah im feeling tons better, its all good. Im so jealous of Hayley being on holibobs... :p Although the weather here is fantastic. For once. :D

    Lots of people seem to be leaving on this board. I sometimes feel i just need time out, you know? Not thinking about debt all the time, that really does get to me.

    lol-should be easy to spot then-daft cat :-)
    am so happy you are feeling good, last week was sooo pants! i know what you mean about needing time out, sometimes i do feel under a bit of pressure coz i started this challenge and i feel should be not spending and sorta setting an example? But then on more positive days its a good thing that i feel like that coz it gives me more incentive to be 'good'
    posted 2 ebay items this morning, waitning for a cheque from one buyer and payment from another. as long as they both pay i should be left with about £20 so that covers the cost of my scrapbooking which is what i was hoping for-yay!

    Just looking at your sig Amy-your total has crept down again hasnt it? and blimey youve done well on the £10 a day challenge!!!!
  • **Amy**

    Yeah it came down a bit (£50 i think) :D . I did so well on the £10 a day due to that mobile (of which i still havent had a reply from my letter to O2 :mad: ).

    I think that will probably be it for extra money now though, until Quidco pays out. I have nothing else to sell on ebay etc.
