[This is a Sponsored Post] - Back onto the subject of loans; if you need an influx of money for any reason; buying a new car, home improvements then a loan can help. www.selectloans.co.uk - thats right; a UK company - can compare personal loans for people in the UK. This goes back to what I was saying about comparison sites being the way forward, why go from site to site putting in your details over and over again? If you need a secured loan or want to see what you are able to borrow, then try this site - www.selectloans.co.uk.
[Revisited] - The weather is still cold out. but nice and bright; I don't know whether to wear a scarf or sunglasses. Probably both!

[This is a Sponsored Post] - Sand dollars, seashells and starfish for crafts and weddings. Sand Dollars features information on sea shells and staffish for crafts and occasions such as weddings. I find some shells absolutely beautiful and amazing to look at. This site has a blog about all of the different types. Take a look at the Pearl Nautilus Seashell ; "The pearl nautilus outgrows its chamber and builds another a little larger and directly on top of its existing chamber and moves in to new chamber when built." Its a shell of a site (sorry) and well worth a look!
[Revisited] Just a quick note to say that I went to see 'The Pursuit of Happyness' at the weekend, it was ok; a bit dragged-out with some depressing moments, but ultimately satisfying. Rocky Balboa was better!
[This is a Sponsored Post] - I love movies. I'ma big fan of all things horror, and action. Bascially VideoDetective is offering a competition to win 3 great horror films: THE GATHERING (horror/thriller) starring Christina Ricci. PREY (gore-fest)starring Bridget Moynahan.

[Revisited] Sorry about the lack of posts today, I've been off doing general life admin; haircut, shopping and cooking - stuff I hate doing at the weekend!

[This is a Sponsored Post] I do get to choose what I write about, and I had to bring your attention to this... Millionaire Dating. This appears to be a Yahoo! site for dating, but you have to admire their strategy. If you could sign-up and meet the person of your dreams, that would be great; and if that person had shedloads of money, then awesome!
Number 64 - Congrats to my boss who earlier today has seen the birth of his first child! It couldn't happen to a more genuine and deserving chap. The nipper probably came out, felt how cold it was and went back in!
[This is a Sponsored Post] Like I said, I have my annual appraisal recently, and it went very well. It is nice to have lots of good things said about you, and it was cool that my boss recognised lots of small things I do; like sometimes making the tea. www.managerassistant.com offer a range of employee review software packages to help give a performance appraisal. I'm sure it wasn't easy for my boss to put all of my appraisal together, maybe this software could have helped.

Number 63 - I'm thinking about having a prize for getting a particularly hard one soon. Nothing massive, just a token to show excellence in the field of guessing tube stations from little images... i'll keep you posted (ha ha!)
[This is a Sponsored Post] - Now on to Cheap Car Insurance UK. As before, I agree that comparison sites are the way forward, get cheap quotes from a selection of insurers in less than 2 minutes. Most individual insurers have a large a panel of schemes, but only a comparison web site can give you the choice from several insurers at once. QuoteZone have over 30 insurers to search through for you online, and you can save not only time, but money also. This is a UK company, so don't be afraid to visit them, and they feature such insurers as Women on Wheels, Swinton, NIG and HSBC.
[Revisited] Every time I look at this image, I wonder how they drew the picture in the corner so quickly. It'd be funnier if he was burping instead of ..............
[This is a Sponsored Post] Going back to an insurance post - an area I have a great deal of experience in. Comparison web sites are a great way to get the best price with minimal leg work. Most home insurance companies have their own panel which is made up from different insurers and underwriters. QuoteZone has a panel made up from UK insurance companies, giving a vast selection with a cheap quote available in around 2 minutes online. Think of them as being on top of the home insurance pyramid as they search from companies such as Churchill, Budget, AXA and Lloyds TSB.

Number 62 - I know at the time of posting this that number 61 is still to be guessed; but I hate leaving a sponsored post on top of my blog! This is one of the first images that I made, but forgot to upload it! It's not quite perfect, but should be obvious!
[This is a Sponsored Post] I hate to admit it, but I have been completely reeled in by Ugly Betty. The Stateside producers tend to do comedy / drama very well, such as Desperate Housewives, and Nip/Tuck. Anyway, www.soaps.com features all of the Soap Opera News that you need. Ok, it might all be US shows, but there are updates on Ugly Betty. All this site needs is a section for Hollyoaks, and it just might make it into my favourites folder. I've just seen the Days of Our Lives section on the site; wasn't that just a joke from Friends, or just a very clever piece of crossover TV?
Number 61 - Here is another quick one to keep you all on your toes whilst 56 continues to prove difficult! I remember the days when i'd post at 9am, and by 9.15am, it'd be done and dusted with a top effort from the regular suspects!
[This is a Sponsored Post] - Back to mobile phones... This web site offers free cell phones to people. I'm still thinking about my upgrade. I want a good camera on it, but also it has to be a decent phone. I've seen a 10 megapixel camera on a new Samsung - TEN MEGAPIXELS!? I'd like to be able to upload photos to a blog from it, which I hear is available in the States. Anyway, this site offers free shipping and boasts the largest selection you can find. Browse deals for the best one for you. Isn't the internet great? you bet.
[Revisited] Another classic that took a while to solve. I hope y'all had a good weekend. Rocky Balboa this week - shud be gud!
