Afternoon all, having a slightly rubbish day as i have just gone and failed my driving test.:( However i have a choice between moping round feeling sorry for myself and hope the examiner will drop down dead! Or, i can pick myself up brush myself down and get on with the day the way i like to, by being productive, whilst still sending the examiner bad thoughts!:D

Hope everyone else is having a better day, the sun is shining here so its rather pleasant.

It certainly did! And I had enough left from the pot I'd put aside to pay it to pay off a smaller debt too - it pays to barter with DCAs!

I've been playing free bingo today, not won anything yet...keep going though!

Charging phone at work, lunch was leftovers...it all helps

Lilian, well done on the large payment off your debt.

Amy thanks for the heads up regarding free bingo, off that way now!

Andan - sorry about your driving test. You seem such a bright and bubbly person that i'm sure you won't let it get you down. try for a cancellation - I managed to get one for my son extremely quickly. Good luck!!

Love Tess xx :grinheart

Thanks tess, unfortunately i just had a mean examiner, who when i tried to speak to him he kept ignoring me, which did nothing for my nerves. When i thought about it after, i realised he had made me feel really tiny. I was down about it for about two hours and then figured what the hey, lets get on with the day! In fact its going rather productively today and have managed to get lots done.
