    Congrats Mabel :D, hopefully I'll be joining you (sort of) soon.

    I've had a rubbish day at work, for the last three days I've been getting told what to do by a complete idiot and really can't stand it anymore... I'm about as passive as people come but I still want to give him a good slap, and I've had a horrible headache all day :(.

    I will do... have taken some asprin which is naughty as I have asthma, but it has taken the edge off of it at least. I think I'm going to order another money box from pigsback. I have one for coppers, so I want another one for silver & another for pound coins. That probably sounds a bit strange but I like being organised...

    I've just visited dooyoo again, I didn't realise how much stuff you could review! I thought it was mostly electrical stuff when I saw the first page but obviously I was wrong. This could make me money yet!

    Yeah, it does look pretty good Jen. I should try and do one a day which would definately add up, but the majority of the time (like now) I can't be bothered when I've been at work all day. I'd do it at the weekends but I'm always in Brighton, I might start doing it in the morning when my boyfriend is still asleep (giving me about 3 or 4 hours to write lol).
