    crash away stressed mum!! Well done on the quidco - I have got an "old enquiry" that has been added as well - £32 from my very first cashback transaction in December 2006, but it will come in the next payment as they just missed the last one.....still, something to look forward to at the beginning of April!

    But which is worse - custard doughnuts with all that fat and sugar, or a few squares of 70% cocoa dark chocolate which taste nice and also protect you from heart disease?

    When I said a few squares I was thinking paving slab size......

    I feel your pain ladies and gents. I am a "three bars" kinda guy... Hence why I'm plying myself full of fruit every day!

    All will be well! I've quit P!necone! Somehow the 30/40 minute surveys just wasn't doing it for me when all I was getting £3 in food vouchers/paypal...

    So I'm free to do more things with my time, like read and other MSE thingys!
    :beer: Debt Free since July 2011 and it feels good! :beer:

    How do you amass £70k in a year?! :eek:

    I have offset my custard doughnut moment by running 10.5 miles......the weather eased up just in time. As I was driving from the office we had an almighty hailstorm, and there is no way I am running in that sort of stuff!

    But in the end, it was fine......although I am collapsed now. Must go and make something to eat, then dive in the shower!

    Hope you have all had a good day!
