    Hi ladymay

    Have just read through your diary... some blokes are just "expletive deleted"...

    Loved the comment made by your wee nursing home pal about the best way to get over a man :rotfl:

    Have subscribed and look forward to following your progress

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Morning :D

    On the PAYG thing... I've got a good deal with Virgin, Sim only for about £12pm. They have various deals on so check em out... They use the EE network so coverage is very good (I've not had any issues)

    Have a good day and be kind to yourself ;)

    Hi UncannyScot and WannabeFree :hello:

    I'm inclined to agree with both of you. Current plans are to have a wonderful life and work hard on the new business and then going to a certain kind of bank at the age of 35 (I'm currently 32) and taking my mother up on her offer of raising a communal child together :rotfl:

    - PAD Done, £29.34 on the CC
    - NSD Done
    - Banking Not done, ran out of time
    - Cancel phone contract Done
    - Search for best PAYG in UK (reception in the Westcountry can be pretty sketchy so I'm limited). Done
    - Call middle brother Done
    - Call mum Done
    - Work on wedding music Done, still more work to be done
    - sort set lists for next week Work in progress but partly done

    So I checked out the PAYG deals, for the amount of data I need for work the cheapest I can get is Vodaphone so that's that sorted! And for being nice to myself, I arranged to see a friend tomorrow, I had a good old whinge with my flatmate, and I sent an email to one of my favourite podcasts / radio shows - I shall await with bated breath as to whether it's read out or not...

    The baby shower planning is afoot! I just need people to agree on a date now. Lots of games and food and decor ideas spinning round in my head :)

    I'm still decidedly wobbly but today's been a good day

  • Thinking about your late payers.... could you threaten them with an additional admin fee if they don't pay by a certain date that covers the exchange rate fees because they will have to pay in sterling rather than Euros?

    I'll go down that route if I have to WTMA - with moving country I'm nervous that someone might just not pay if I pursue them more aggressively, and no single client owes enough to make it worth going to a small claims court...

    - Low spend day - I'm buying the ice cream and wine for seeing my friend, and I'll see about buying a cheap case to protect the phone until I do more research Didn't get the chance to look for a phone case, other than that done and the ice cream and wine were both half price!
    - Banking Physical banking done and monies transferred
    - Contact late payers Done, every apologised and was nice so it should all be resolved in the next 10 days
    - Speak to contact re: final details for event management work I need to meet her tomorrow
    - Keep on with wedding music Nearly there with this!
    - Look at storage options in UK Done - they're pretty limited in my area
    - Gig Done
    - See friend A bit later
    - Pack Jim jams for sleepover Just about to!

    Mixed day today - my head's still wrecked from the mess of last weekend so I've arranged to speak to him Wednesday evening (we're both flat out til then, both of us being entertainers means this is the busiest time of the year for both of us). I'm nervous about it, I'm just so confused about it all!

    Right, time for a shower and to pack my bag and to head to my friend's for wine and ice cream :)
