    Happy new month!

    I'm not in work today because I have a lot of running about to do (or so it seems). Hopefully I can do some moneysaving stuff in between:
    • take cats to vets
    • collect cats from vets
    • children to race training
    • children to karate
    • Mr T delivering - scan everything before it goes away
    • Cook Roast Pork for dinner
    • [strike]Check online banking and update against bills to pay[/strike] Done - deficit is manageable at this stage
    • [STRIKE]Do a bit of STP[/STRIKE] Got it out of the way early on......now up to £4.01:o
    • clicks and surveys
    • check for mystery shops available
    • get a load of washing on
    • try and sort out student's broadband access
    Hope you all have a good day!

    Hi Miz, yes kitties are ok, but they are being "done" today so we don't end up with more kitties :o

    Ah - very wise! Hope they both recover quickly - likewise your bank balance if my experience of vets is anything to go by!

    Yes, a swift £100 departing from my bank account today.........but it has to be done, so there is little point in me stressing about it.

    I will just have to do even more MSE stuff to compensate!

    OK, checked the bank balances and I have a deficit at this point of £206 - this much money is due in later in the month with pay from OH job, but I cannot afford for the deficit to grow any more....so "operation no cash point" starts here :rotfl:

    Good luck. I have £40 in my purse from dog training last week. My mission (should I choose to accept it ..... oh dear - am showing my age! :o) is to make it last as long as possible. Not sure how long that'll be but we'll see.

    If you do not choose to accept the mission, that £40 will self destruct.......

    (that is obviously where I have been going wrong - all my balances have self destructed :o )

    Am going to try for two weeks - have a party on Saturday or I'd try for the whole month!

    Morning Hypno, every time I read STP I keep thinking it stands for sticky toffee pudding.

    sticky toffee pudding, now there's a better idea. :D

    I shall think of that when I see it, instead of feeling guilty for not doing it. But I don't think it is suitable for someone who is partially deaf, and totally tone deaf?
