Gonk Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Pawnbrokers with the watch. Get them to hold it for a month or so until you're sorted. Pay a bit of interest and get your watch back
Gonk Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 we were divorced when my aunt died.... by 7 weeks I am not mean 9despite being a Scot) and will clear our marital debts that she is paying and make sure she can afford somewhere to live. I am not vindictive, but am also sick of getting the piss taken out of me so won't give in to her demands. If you're going to do this, make sure that you pay them off. Don't give her the money to do it. She'll go off on a beano, then come back saying they're still 'our' debts.
oggybwfc Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Dont get too giddy on th'ale when your minted. The sight of all those cans on one of your weekends still scares me.

Bigtoe Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 ok pal was only thinking ?20 pal if you start eating you big toe the offer is there No way he's noshing me off
jules_darby Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Id ask my boss can i borrow ?50 it out of the petty cash and explain why, it will be put back on the 13th and here's my valued watch as my word I advance a few of my lot from time to time Particularly this month as we pay early in December for Xmas so it's 6 weeks to January pay day Try your boss as BB says Jazza, you never know...
jazza Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 Good advice.... The thing is, it maybe isn't a bad thing to be skint for a week, there will be no chance of me yielding to temptation and buying lager. This way I'll be on the wagon for 2 weeks at least since I haven't had a beer since New Year. Anyway. I'm off to Asda now for my pot noodles and have managed to hunt out another couple of quid in change that was lying about the house, so might even treat myself to milk and bread too. I've also delved into the darkest recesses at the back of my freezer and have found some chicken gujons, some mince and Asda smart price oven chips, so food parcels not required

jazza Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 Off the beer. I have 3 bottles of whisky in the cupboard but won't bother.
Guest Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Off the beer. I have 3 bottles of whisky in the cupboard but won't bother. Great discipline, pal
jazza Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 Great discipline, pal Not really.. i fuckin hate the stuff, but being Scottish and liking a drink, my exes family kept buying me whisky as presents. I've tried mixing it with all sorts like ribena, Orange cordial, even bovril but it still tastes like shite. Sober it is for me!!
MickyD Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 So swap the whisky for food. Dependant, obviously, on brand and size, most 70cl bottles are good for a tenner.
ROSSENDALEWHITE Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Ha this is a fun post! Don't Piss that money up the wall pal, pay ur mortgage off straight away if you have one and get some decent financial advice.
anewman Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 stop being so fuckin stubborn and send me your bank details on fb and i will send some
Spider Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Forty cans I'm still coming to terms with that bit. I still think you've been watching too much deal or no deal.
Breightmet Boy Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 If i came into that kind of cash ?250k id buy 6 stone houses in Darwin nr Blackburn and live off the ?750 a week rent and buy a second hand car for ?8k. Id piss the other ?2k against the wall
Salford Trotter Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 i can help too, i don't want to see a fellow wanderer go short
bolty58 Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Jazza, I'll EFT 50 quid into your account. You pay me back by buying me a few pints and a curry next time I'm over (probably mid year). How's that?
jazza Posted January 7, 2012 Author Posted January 7, 2012 Thanks all, but I'm fine, it's a wierd feeling waking up at 5am on a Saturday feeling fresh! I get paid on Friday so will be ok 'til then If the worst comes to the worst, there's a co-op in carlisle who's card machine lets you go overdrawn (at least that's what I've been told) So I can go there on Mon/Tues and sort myself out.
MickyD Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 It's alright having an ATM which shows you to go overdrawn except i'm sure your bank won't slow out without slapping you with a hefty bill for unauthorised overdraft.
jazza Posted January 7, 2012 Author Posted January 7, 2012 It's alright having an ATM which shows you to go overdrawn except i'm sure your bank won't slow out without slapping you with a hefty bill for unauthorised overdraft. ?8 is the charge, looked into it
Breightmet Boy Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 He's already said he won't borrow off mates, which by the way is commendable
jazza Posted January 7, 2012 Author Posted January 7, 2012 Forty cans. forty cans? I have supped that in a day no prob. don't see how it's relevant though
Spider Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) forty cans? I have supped that in a day no prob. don't see how it's relevant though Just canny believe it, mon. Anyhow, I take it you don't get taxed on this windfall because you're north of the border? It's ?325k down here. I say you block buy 30 tickets for a home match for WWayers later this season. We'll all pay for your ale. Also, I'd be off round to your ex missus house wearing a big crown and burning tenners on her lawn. Made up for you. Edited January 7, 2012 by Spider
