    Aw poor dd :o:o That'll teach you for trying to be a good mum and be healthy ;):D

    I chatted to the guy again the other night but he hasn't been online for a couple of days, we were vaguely arranging to meet up again last time we talked, will let you know!!

    I've submitted the earnings enquiry to quidco, I've got 3 there now which if they all pay out will get me another 67.50 :D The last 2 I did have paid out so I'm keeping my fingers crossed ;)

    Good luck with the earnings enquiry - I have one for £110 that has been "agreed" but no sign of paying out - bah!!!!

    I hope you have a good weekend and that DS is feeling better x
