    Morning all :D Yesterday was a no spend day which is usually unheard of at a weekend in my house so very pleased with that :D Today we're going out, I can't cope with being stuck in again all day, so we're going to go up the forest with a football for a bit and then we'll watch some trains from the station car park ;) That way we shouldn't bump into anyone but also ds will get a bit of fresh air :D

    I lost all my motivation for my list yesterday so it probably won't get completed this weekend, but at least the flats tidy and clean, the ironings done and I made some money from the matched bet so not all bad :D

    Lol Skintspice, nah I just had a really lazy day yesterday ;) Although I feel a bit more motivated today just not to do the things on my list :rotfl:
    I have though checked the interest rates on my isa,ds child trust fund and his savings account. I'm happy enough with them all still so not looking at changing any of them :D

    Just signed up for another matched bet offer,have placed my first bet for 50.00 and this will get me a free 50.00 bet, and then I need to do 5 more bets to qualify for another free 50.00 bet, and this happens 3 times,so in total it will mean 200.00 of free bets :beer: I will need to concentrate on this one as up till now its been mainly just do a qualifier,get a free bet type offers. I have 90 days to complete this one, hope it will be okay ;):D

    we've just spent an hour watching the level crossing go up and down and various trains arrive / depart at the station :rolleyes: then we went and played ball for a bit in the forest. At least he's had a bit of fresh air today and so far its still a no spend weekend :T
