    weekend update

    You know I "forgot" to cancel my lottery subscription, this doesn't justify the forgetfulness, but I've just won £10 :j It's going straight over to the card, well in a minute when I've finished typing!

    And I've received another £6 rail voucher for train delays. These are stashed in an envelope ready for when I have to buy my season ticket. I have become very zealous in reclaiming for delays. I never bothered before, as I don't like filling in forms! Now I'm aware of every penny, I go for it once the train is delayed over half an hour, bet they love me in the claim office:rotfl:

  • tough if the claim office dont like you, you probably paid a small fortune for the ticket in the first place so why not get something back - good luck

    Oh yes, he was an absolute git today. You know what they're like when they're over-excited, springs in the air and they don't know what to do with themselves? It was one of those days. We set off for a hack, but he was so stupid with bunnyhops, bucking and napping into a tractor that I bought him back and raced him round and round the school to try to wear him out a bit. He then didn't want to go out on a hack again, and had to be dragged down the track by a friend of mine. We ended up doing half a hack backwards! Honestly, that horse could nap for the Olympics. He wouldn't go forwards, so we had to go backwards :rolleyes: I am exhausted!

    Problem is, I can't let him get away with it, so I'm going to have to go through it all again tomorrow. Here's to hoping, I've run some of the energy out of him!
