    Hi KC! He is - 7 months next week - and he's got the cold at the moment so he's whinging even more than usual, poor little thing. And poor me as it means I spend all day carrying him around and get even less done!

    I've not really been that busy - remember there are 2 of us pandas here working away at it, so only half the work each. 3 mystery shops, and sale of a few things that I listed on Ebay ages ago as buy-it-now plus the usual smattering of surveys, coupons etc. Not a great deal else.

    Not found your diary yet KC...off to hunt it down (note to self: start subscribing to threads rather than just waiting for them to appear on page 1)

    Just completed a survey so should be getting a £2 cheque shortly, and have been given a £50 cheque from my mum for my birthday present (it was in April but I've not decided which camera I want yet and Canon have gone and confused me further by releasing new models).

    Might up my target to £10 a day since I currently have over £60 'pending' that I know about, including £25 from pureprofile, £5.50 from TCB, £2 survey cheque, £10 from daily scratches, and fingers crossed for it being paid on time £37 from myhpf.

    Should have the holiday paid for in a couple of months at this rate. Then can start saving for new rubbery bits, camera and bikini to take with me.

    haven't posted much but have been keeping up with what everyone's doing - well done:j

    i've only made £12 so far but it's my first go and i don't know how much bonus i'm getting until the 23rd - don't get loads because i'm compliant and ethical (long disillusioned story won't bore anyone) but it will all go towards the pot - which i'm using to save for birthdays (they always creep up on me after xmas dd and ds both in february) and to make a payment a day.

    focus groups never seem to come to our area - shame because it sounds like a fab thing to do!

    I have got a mystery shop to do after work but it is part 2 of a 6 parter, so won't be getting paid until the whole lot is done, so nothing to count just yet.

    I've just been sent tests to be a freelance audio typist, so if I manage to pass the tests, I could easily make my target, but would have to change my targets as it supposedly pays £10 an hour, which would make target in one hour a day lol. I have to look into tax and ni for self employment so . Just waiting for some cash to hit my bank account and then I will finally have made some money!!!

    Well done to everyone! I hope that I can start to make some money to pay my car off! DH has taken a 75% pay cut and if he is not on shift he doesnt get paid and he hasnt been on shift for 2 weeks now (his work are a bunch of somethings) so we have to make some serious money in the next couple of weeks to get our heads above water this month and hopefully start swimming out of this hole soon!
