    it's like chocolate raisins but yogurt instead and I know it sounds horrible but they are lovely!

    Ahh...I know what you mean now...

    I was envisioning a Müller corner with a corner of raisins...

    I think the "gak!" tells you why they're cheap at Tesco's...

    The "normal" yoghurt flavours (like the berry one) is pretty nice. But I can't stand banana in any form.

    Very popular with kids though! but they are weird...:rolleyes:

    I like bananas but hate banana flavoured stuff too, luckily most of my friends know this but there's nothing worse than going for a meal at someone's house when they've made a banoffee pie - you feel guilty as they have obviously made an effort but gak, gak, gak...

    I hate smoothies for that - virtually all of them are made with banana...

    I'm feeling fine today so off to the gym in a bit. Got lots of gardening to do so that will be the afternoon I think as I've been avoiding it because of the wind and rain.
    I fancy a wee challenge with myself to try and make some money by the end of June as my holiday spends will be somewhat limited otherwise (currently looking like £40) and I'd like to take DS to the zoo and a couple of other places during our fortnight off. Not much left to sell though... But will get my finger out and do something. Pal who I'm supposed to be doing a car book sale with just doesn't seem to get round to it ever so looks like I'll have to do it alone, I did say by the end of May at the latest but she's never got her stuff together. Bit worried about her as she's really skint, heavily in debt but doesn't seem to want to do anything to fix it. Can't force a LBM...

    This weekends list:

    tidy/clean lounge
    tidy/clean kitchen and bathroom
    tidy/clean DS's room (mine just needs the bed changed but otherwise it's tidy)
    Do ironing once everything is dry - I'm such a saddo that blue skies mean outside drying before the beach or bbqs these days!
    DO NOT BOOK HOLIDAY!!!

    What about doing some of the quidco offers Skinty........some free and easy money there for grabs;)

    I just did the paydayloans thingy and Halifax CC to net a cool £55
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
