Wow it has been nearly a week since I have posted, and in that time I have not dropped as much as normal and I have NOT experienced any withdrawel symptoms. I was thinking that I would be eating my christmas dinner pining over dropping but guess what, the thought never even crossed my mind [...]

Is this really one of my favorite movies?

By Greg - Last updated: Sunday, December 21, 2008

Many years ago, before many of you where probably born, I saw a movie on TV call ‘Bugsy Malone‘. Wow I thought it was great at the time. A few years ago I watched it again at some obscure time and on some obscure channel and thought I want it on DVD. I hunted for [...]

Unwanted Expense before christmas

By Greg - Last updated: Friday, December 19, 2008

I am not happy today, I am sat here in about 4 layers of clothes as I have had to turn the gas off. Why? Well yesterday our oven decided to pack up on us. It has been given us the odd warning I must admit. I took the measurements of the housing, the width [...]

Why bother being debt free?

By Greg - Last updated: Wednesday, December 10, 2008

I am really pissed at the moment. A few years ago my credit record was not great but early last year I decided to change all that while I could. I paid off a couple of old CCJ’s that I had, and cleared all of my debts apart from the mortgage. Today, looking at my [...]

By Greg - Last updated: Tuesday, December 9, 2008

I was talking to someone earlier and it made me think. Yea I do that some times. Each year most people who celebrate christmas might have a christmas card list and send cards to everyone on that list. Then out of the blue you receive a christmas card from someone not on that list, what [...]
