    Belated well done on the new job from me, and not much longer till that card is gone. Ive got one with a couple of hundred on and its really frustrating not having enough spare pennies to pay it off in one go!

    Card is down to £52 and I have about £22 to cash in on the scratchies, which I'll do tomorrow and hopefully next Friday it will be paid then its onto the Abbey National which also has a small amount on it.

    Paid another £25 off the card as I cashed in on the scratchies, pity they are coming to an end. That will leave the balance at £27.

    Everybody helped to scrub the house from bottom to bottom (live in a bungalow) and then had chicken for lunch. I managed to plant out lots of bedding plants into tubs and pots and just have a few left to finish off.

    OH has got overtime and is doing a nightshift tonight, he is in bed at the moment. Still no proper news on the shift changes.

    Tis a shame indeed about scratchcards, but it was good while it lasted. Hope to see that credit card balance gone very soon!

    Have planted out courgettes and outside cucumber and the last of the broccoli. Did a bit of weeding as well. Just mopped the kitchen floor and the chaps are all going for their baths and hair wash.

    OH has left the building and gone to work. Dog has been locked in her cage as she has got a serious case of flatulence and keeps trying to blame us! Not sure what she's eaten but its obviously not agreeing with her.

    Morning didn't get off to the greatest of starts, dog decided to wake us up at 4.10 and it took a while to get back to sleep, then I didn't want to get up. Washed horse stable rug and got works uniform covered in horse hair whilst pegging it out. Then the car boot wouldn't shut and we had run out of WD40 (love the smell of that stuff) managed to find some oil and gave it a squirt dripping it all over my head in the process (hatchback).

    Came home and did some weeding which I feel better for doing as its such a lovely day. Cub and scout run tonight.
