| Don't do motorways as it's just 20 minutes through an area of outstanding natural beauty. Just have to watch out for rabbits, deer and badgers! |

Lucky you
I'm lucky to live in the most beautiful area God created( According to me ) but workwise, I use the motorway for speed and countdown the junctions and ignore the "non scenery". |

I haven't got a bath or I'd have one now and then, no good you coming to stay with me Julie! Well I've actually 2 baths in the house but no hot water to fill them with! You only get minimal hot water, not that I'm complaining after all that time without any! So an electric shower it is for us.
I tend not to buy too much cosmetics as I use daughters! I have to have moisturiser as I have very dry sensitive skin, I use handcream and remember to use vaseline on my lips when they're dry...I ought to take care of myself more but can't always be bothered, bit lazy in that department.
The other day I was going shopping with Hannah and she does my hair and make up and I said oh I can't be bothered with makeup just a bit of lip gloss and her words. 'c'mon Lez make the most of what you've got, you're having it on' I did and guess I felt a bit better but my point is at night I have to stand for 5 mins taking it off again.

| I used to wear makeup all the time when I was younger but can't be bothered now. Same with my hair. It's just wash and go now as it is so short. Twenty minutes in a morning and I'm ready to go! |

| It's only 20 mins for me too Jan, I'm literally in and out of shower, blast dry my hair, and I'm off, daughter on the other hand well depending on what time she's in work she can be up at 6am getting ready, can't be doing with that! Mind I miss her when I'm going out as she normally would do my hair and make-up x |

| My daughter was up, dressed and out in five minutes flat earlier this week - she overslept and had to get to work. Fortunately she has to tie her back and there's not much call for makeup at Asda! |

| Daughter's always worked in the Beauty Therapy world but this is her 3rd week as a Receptionist in an Opticians and she's loving it. Normally will be only Saturdays although she's took the cleaning position of 2 hours a week too. They're offering her lots more hours whilst she waits for 6th form to start so she's lucky and so I am she can fund her way through 6th Form as she wont' qualify for EMA which is a shame x |

| I wear make up for work and for going out but not a lot. My morning routine is shower, straighten hair, drink tea, get dressed, apply make up, go! |

I think kallis3 that you should win an award this week for hosting the FF BBQ. You put a lot of effort in and it should be rewarded.
So Andy if your reading... |

Be next week then.
I don't update mine often. I think once you get into the IVA and have offloaded everything, unless something momentous happens you don't tend to bother. |

| That's what I've found with mine. Once I'd posted about being BR there wasn't a lot more I can say. I'll still update it now and then if anything happens though - hopefully only good now! |

Hi The winner for the period ending 08/08/10 is treadingafineline
http://treadingafineline.blogs.iva.co.uk/ They have recently had a dilemma They had received a £1400 payment from not making a claim on their ppi insurance. Wondered if they could just bank it as it would be useful to build an emergency fun, trawled the forum and asked for advice and the overwhelming consensus of the forum was to tell the IP, treadingafineline knew this was the right thing to do and it was confirmed by the forum. As a bonus their IP sanctioned that they kept £500 which was a nice bonus. Shows the advice of the forum is not only good but the support offered is excellent and honesty is the best policy for a smooth running IVA. Well done I will contact you via email to arrange the posting of your vouchers
