    :rotfl: worth a try Bob! All paypal money now heading safely this way before I decide to spend it. I have sold lots of WW stuff on ebay though for good prices so maybe you should stick them on this weekend - free for 99p starts I think.

    Ten more things gone and I've got the urge to declutter some more but need to do some comps first.

  • I have not really thought of flogging them on fleabay, but will look into it..to be honest i rather like them, but they take up cupbaord space..so maybe i will.

    but only after copying your favourite recipes Bob!

    As anticipated final lecky bill came in today and I owe them just about the same as they gave me back on the gas! suppose I break even on it but still annoying and we will have to cut down on the lecky use. wonder if I can convince DS he'll like knitting as much as he likes his PSP/PS2... I can imagine his reaction!

    Got bit of a cold so may have a duvet day tomorrow I think...

    About to attempt to do my shopping for less than a tenner... not much to buy as loads in the freezer but may be pushing it a little! still I'll beat the £50 I used to budget for it.

    Still not done the shopping yet but have had major tidy up and changed the beds (put summer duvet under the mattress protector to make mine extra cosy), hoovered everywhere and cleaned bathroom and kitchen.
    Paid bill at PO - not done that in years!
    Got some books out of library too so hopefully can have a wee read in a bit and veg, will save money and hopefully a bit of down time will help me shake this cold.
    Worked out that I would really need an extra £1400 to pay debt off at point where I'd like to so not sure that's going to happen but will give it a go!
