    I a;ways go on line and see what is the cheapest price I can get and then get the agents to price match it
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    I would normally only be able to book in the school hols, but cos I don't have a permanent job yet (just done 2 terms of my NQT year), I'm going back to supply with an agency I was with before I found the maternity cover post, so can obviously take time off when I want to.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    Back from the pub :D (got back about 8pm but been busy), and it was a very successful trip - not only did I have a relaxing 2 hours or so, got to watch my first proper footie match in ages, I also got 52 pages read of my text book and all apart from 1 paragraph (which was very heavy on facts & figures) went in with no problems :D Best thing was a 90p half of a beer "I would only want chilled" lasted me the entire match & a little longer ;) I think I've found a way to work on my study without being distracted by the internet or housework :D

    Tomorrows plan is to do the tutorial associated with todays chapter then go and read the latest chapter somewhere - if the weather is nice I'll go the park, if not I'll go back to the pub ;)

    Tomorrows housework :
    • Make DD's bed
    • Wash dishes
    • Ironing
    Now I'm going to watch Law & Order Special Victims from last night and then I'm off to bed after setting the alarm in DD's bedroom to wake me up so I don't sleep in until 11am again :o :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Vali sorry to disappoint but I'm a Londener. I think I picked up the term Maiden from here a few years ago and just adopted it sounds better than airer.

    Not disappointed at all - impressed actually! Round here I have to explain it - but it's easier to say than clothes horse, or clothes airer.

    As a matter of fact both my grandfathers came from London - East End (West Ham and East Ham!) Always feel very comfortable when visiting london - something in the blood, perhaps!
