    Belated birthday greetings L. And wow what a result on the repayments. That's really almost £16,600 taking into account the car. You should be PROUD, very proud. (Said with the relevant scary voice.)

    I'm glad to see you children have been spoiling you too. Shows how well brought up they are.

    Just made the final payments for the year. Weather has been awful and luckily DS1 managed to get a lift. I didn't make it into work and DD1 stayed at home as she only had half a day. The other 2 weren't impressed when they had to go. Spent all morning cleaning so got it out the way and just a bit to do next week.

    Hope the weather improves as I've got loads to do tomorrow. It's also the north sides night out tomorrow night but I'll have to keep an eye on the weather to see whether I go.

    Just done mine and OHs ears with the hopi ear candles. No we weren't sad and unpeeled them to see how much came out...........ok I lied we did and it was gross.
