    Unfortunately no nsd for me today - spent on pasties and cakes and also bought some much needed memory for my computer.

    It will be an NSD tomorrow.

    Oi...Strumps, I heard that - not one cake has passed my lips today so you must have mice:eek::rotfl:

    I have had quite a productive day today and even participated in a survey (just looking at packaging really) for a yoghurt drink and I was given £3 of vouchers to spend on yoghurt or yoghurt drinks - thank you very very much Muller yoghurts - now I will be able to buy some of your yummy yoghurt:j

    Strumps - just think that with OH gone for a few days you will be able to watch what you want on the telly, lounge around in your jim jams and have all the duvet to yourself:D

    More like:

    Get some study done without him distracting me all the time
    I seriously need to get down and do this - I have been very naughty and let this slide. I'm in serious trouble at work if I fail it again. Still I can't be bothered in spite of the consequences.

    Got a free evening this evening. Will try to do at least 2 hours and then allow myself to go down the pub with a couple of friends.

    No study = no pub though!!!!!

    In that case Strumps you will get a call from me giving you a kick up the bum. I cant concentrate today as some trees are being chopped down - they're beautiful too and two have already gone:mad: Where is the owl supposed to roost now?:confused:

    I am supposed to be writing two assignments as well as an advert to go into a posh wedding magaxine - I need clients:rolleyes:

    Need to buy some milk today and need other things but I am trying to do without, tomorrow I am out with our parliamentary candidate helping her with a petition (I am hoping that working with her will lead me into some corporate work).

    Now then instead of the pub - go to the supermarket and get some beer, put it where you can't see it and when you have done some study - reward yourself with one bottle:D

    Hi Strumps - hope you are not reading this but are getting down to your studying! I know how hard it is to get motivated but am sure that once you start it won't be that bad.

    Had an NSD today.

    DS won a £25 premium bond.

    Hi Strumps

    Hope the tip about studying in the morning helped? I tried to do my mystery shop today but was told by the serving wench that I would be better off going to max mara because they sell clothes for fat woman - I am a size 14 for god's sake not a size flippin' zero:mad: Mind you looking at her, I have seen more fat on a chip:rotfl:

    Bought myself some earrings and a crystal bracelet - the bracelet turned out to be half price so it cost me £8:j Now I have all my clothes for the next 4 years at least.

    I thought about you when I was out because I saw some of Willie's chocolate for sale in Selfridges (he of Channel 4 fame) and very nearly got some but decided that £3.49 for a small bar of exceeding dark choc was a bit too much even for me - I shall stick to my G&B Cherry choc that is living in the fridge.

    I have had a horrid smell in the kitchen for several weeks now - I thought that something had gotten under the units and died but no - lurking in the back of the fridge I found a Tesco clotted cream rice pudding with an expiry date of 21 March:eek::eek: It was that, that was stinking to high heaven:eek: It has now gone into the bin outside because I couldnt keep it in the kitchen any longer:rolleyes: I had forgotten all about it:rolleyes:

    Have you gotten OH to confess to stealing your after dinner mint thins? Hide them somewhere really obscure next time and set a trap - one of those old fashioned mouse traps will do the trick, they are nice and springy and snap when triggered:eek::rotfl: It should give him a shock if nothing else:rotfl:

    Have a great weekend - try not to study too hard, have some fun at least.

    Ciao

    Hi All,

    Horace your spending habits are starting to rub off on me. I bought a clock today for £50.:eek::eek::eek: I seriously have to get myself back under control big time.

    On the plus side I have just listed 40 items on Ebay and have at least another 40 to list. I am taking another posters advice and listing items under 99p which means they are free listings (until they sell). So its only time I'm wasting and not money by listing them. If I list 100 items for 99p and they all sell then that's almost £100:rotfl::rotfl:

    Will be spending the rest of the afternoon listing on Ebay and trawling the house for more items to sell. DH and DS better not stand still too long.:D

    Strumps - hope you are having a good weekend, making the most of the sun by sitting outside while you are doing your studying.:j
