    Sorry a bit confused, its not your debt? That jacuzzi looks fab.

    No it is a friends debt - I must put the word Friend's in bigger letters or something cause everyone thinks it is my debt. When the friend asked for help and explained that they had withdrawn £1,000s on a credit card to keep themselves ticking over I had to help!

    How disappointing for your son but hopefully he will get his theory next time!

    Sometimes think about lookng for a new model!

    Just taken his dog to the vets for her booster. I thought she looked a bit skinny and the vet agreed, keeping a lookout for some reduced mince to beef (pardon the pun) her up a bit.

    Ooooowwwwwww, my backs gone and am in pain. Every time I rolled over I whimpered and I had to reverse out the bed this morning. OK if I keep moving.

    OH chainsawed a load of wood yesterday and moved some big logs ready for when the log splitter is out of ICU. Going to tidy round the back today and probably have a bonfire. DS2s turkes should be coming at the end of the month.

    Cooked a ham yesterday so got to glaze that. DD1 made a syrup sponge which was lush.

    Back was getting easier but its been a bit ouchy today. Its ok when I'm moving about but sitting down and then getting up really hurt.

    Panicing a bit with the cashflow for the business, VAT is due this month. Accountant is coming on Tuesday so will chat with her then.

    Activites are back on this week and Scouts tonight. They'll be shocked as I'm paying the subs on time, not very often that happens.

    Hope the back is feeling a bit better now, horrible not being able to sit down comfortably. The sun is shining today so may get some outside jobs done, washing is already out there.
