Today’s Camera Critter is another birdie - #1 Brats parrot Taco!

My best summer vacation ever was a trip the whole family took to France a few years ago. We flew to Paris and rented a car there, then drove down south to see my father - and a bit of sunshine.
We got all the sunshine we needed, good food and family fun - what more do you need?

The next time we take the family abroad, we hope to take them all a bit further afield - at least somewhere sunny, with a nice hotel that caters to all age groups. We hope to find somewhere with a bit of history and culture too - we’re not your typical beach bums. When I say further afield, I don’t mean to be as adventurous as to book us all flights to India, but perhaps Greece, Spain or even Turkey…
I’d definitely get a pre-arranged package though - booking on the ‘net is fine when us two adults are traveling alone, but if we’re to take the whole gang off on a “proper holiday”, we’d want to be sure about everything.

At Dialaflight.com, you talk to an actual person, who’ll make sure you get exactly the holiday you want, whether it’s a weekend break, spa holiday or beach holiday.
Setting out on a trip that’s tailor-made for our family will be a new experience for all of us, and I’m certain we’ll all enjoy it. Yours truly will, anyway. It’ll be a nice change to not have to work everything out as we go along. I might even be getting a rest…

Since I missed Day 1, here’s Doodle Me with Doodle Animal. As you can see, I need a boob job. And sun block.

Check out Claire’s for more doodles…

It had to be this one. # 5 Brat and her grandfather in the sunset, 3 years ago.

The lovely Claire is hosting Doodle Week, and today’s theme is Doodle Monster.
I missed Day 1 (must be the time difference, how can a week begin on a Thursday????), which was Doodle Me - must see if I can fit that in a bit later in the week. (Wonder if a Claire-week lasts 7 or 10 days?). Tomorrow, when the theme is Doodle Animal, may be my chance…

Here’s my monster. I think it’s a cross between a Troll and the Midgard Monster, but I can’t tell. It’s dark.

(Blush - a Claire-week is 7 days. It says so on the header…)

The American legal system amazes me - do you know there’s a story going over here about a guy who won a claim against the manufacturer of his new mobile home truck thingy because the manual didn’t have a warning against switching the thing on autopilot and going in the back for a coffee… On the motorway… I do hope it’s not a true story…

Anyway - do you have a legitimate claim that you’re hesitating to take to court because of the expense? You might want to check out if your case is eligible for a lawsuit financing cash advance. They share the risk with you, and you pay nothing until the case settles, and only if it goes in your favor.

I agree. It sounds too good to be true, and they’re likely to take on only the cases they think their clients can win. If you’re accepted though, you’re in a win-win situation: You’re able to go to court, and you’re not out of pocket if you lose. The result could well be that more people of modest means get to try their case in court, which can only be a good thing.

It seems I’ve got a rank again… Guess how I found out? At PPP, Bwwahahaha. They’ve got this blog listed as a PR2.

Parmigiani? What is that? Cheese? It’s definitely Italian… Maybe it’s ham then, or perhaps an Italian version of Big Brother: Parmigiani watches you!
Nope. No to all of the above. They’re beautiful design watches, I’ll have you know. Michel Parmigiani himself was born in Switzerland in 1950, and is now recognized as one of the living masters of the art and science of watchmaking.
Swiss watches with a flair of Italy, then? Figures…

Have you ever found yourself needing cash right away? Silly question, I know - haven’t we all…

My freezer died a few years ago, and I knew I had 24 hours to save what was in it by getting a new one. There was no money - at least not enough, and although I knew I had money coming in, it would have been too late. Had I had access to Instant Credit Cards at the time, I could have swung it. As it was, I did swing it, by phoning friends and relatives and borrowing room in their freezers for a couple of weeks, but boy, what a hassle!

Should I need a new credit card now, I’d certainly consider an offer with instant approval. I hate having to wait, and since I usually decide to do most things at the last minute, anything instant is just right for me. Of course, instant approval doesn’t mean guaranteed approval, but at least I’d get an answer right away.

At Requestcredit.com, you can get instant approval even with bad credit, and they always have info on the best credit card deals available - instant or not. The site is very comprehensive - all the major lenders are represented, and you can easily compare deals and conditions. All the offers are listed with everything you need to know. There’s also an “immediate card care” service, where advisers are ready to answer your questions, and there are articles designed to help you through the many, many choices.

Credit cards are great, when used with care - beware of sharks and know your limits!
