    Good stuff cat lady - They cost something like 80% less to use, last for ages and are great for the environment too! :D
  • those lightbulbs cost 0.6p/hour to use, instead of about 2-3p/hourto use (we have an energy owl!!) we know cos we did the before and after check!!

    Well done!!

    Sm wow to the birthday card - eh - well done you on being rewarded from clearing out your boot!!

  • Same as yesterday really. Had a one off job cleaning up all the gutters, fascias, soffits and cladding at a house. As it was additional to my regular schedule, I arranged to do it today (Sunday). Was pretty hard work but got there in the end and the extra money was fine. Going down the road soon to bank the cheque. And also like yesterday, I got wet doing it. I don't care. I get wet in the bath anyway :D

    Welcome Cat lady.
    Sophiesmum,well done you on finding the card.
  • afternoon everyone :D
    This weekend has been very low key!
    spent nothing apart from on some 2-4-1 pizza last night from the tip i got at the rugby (so technically free? :confused:) and 2 quid on train ticket to twickers (that i get back) last night, entertained both nights, staying in is definitely the new going out! checked my banking, quidco... think that's all! got a sniffle so makes me stay inside and think about christmas shopping instead of actually doing it ;)
    have a lovely evening!
