    Mmmmmm, Haribo....... :drool:

    During my month without chocolate, it has made a most excellent substitute!

    Why do I seem incapable of having a lay in - it just does not seem fair!!

    Oh well, it does give me an opportunity for some Olympics watching with coffee to hand :D

    Later today I am off to Peterborough to see friends with the children so that will be nice, and apart from that no real plan to do anything.

    I spent an additional £16.90 on my mystery shop yesterday so I need to tweak my bank balances a bit to cover - see how quickly "emergency" savings dwindle!! Ah well, I am still not incurring bank charges this month, so I am very happy with that. I forgot to get petrol yesterday too so can't have a NSD today.....bah! If I had been better organised, an NSD for today would have been easy - as it is I have thrown it away!

    Hope you all have a good day, whatever you may be doing!

    Hi Hypno,
    I know just what you mean, lie ins are a thing of the distant past.
    Still I must admit I quite like the peace and quiet at the weekend when OH and DD's are still snoring in bed.
    Well the sun is shining here so think I will go and have a mooch around the local car boot sale.
    have a good day.

    Have a good day at the car boot - don't go spending too much now! (unless of course you can sell it on at a huge profit!)
