    Mmmmmmm... sounds lush. I love cereal in the evening. That reminds me, must get milk.

    Well im all stuffed from lunch, and sleepy now. No-one is in the office and I have finished everything I wanted to do, even the little bits and bobs that have been hanging around for ages. :D

    I even found a remote control car under my desk. :confused: Am going to ask if i can ebay it or sell it at a bootfair. ;)

    Cool-good luck with getting the car sold! Ive just spent over an hour making a table on excel for my mini savings-i am rubbish with office type word processing stuff!! its come out quite well though got 120 squares to fill at £50 each to get to my £6000. I have printed it out for future use :-) might print out a pic of a mini attach it to the top of it and pin it up by my bed-i am so proud of myself for not deleting it by accident lol

    Just ordered the highlighter pens from pigsback to colour it in with :-)

    Am not going to bother with them anymore now-ive done all the offers and they hardly give me any clicks, will stick to the bingo free scratchcard instead, at least you are guaranteed ten pence a day!

    Ooo well done MM. I love doing stuff like that. :D Deffo print off a piccie of a Mini. It will help keep the motivation going.

    My motivation is being able to lock the cats out in the garden when they become monsters. :rotfl:
