    weekend update

    Have just got out a very hot bath and am already in my dressing gown :rolleyes: Have had a very physical afternoon!

    The Captain's field is still flooded so he can't go out, consequently he has a lot of energy.... and is quite grumpy! I have spent the best part of an hour and half belting round and round the menage on him, trying to wear him out! All I have done is wear me out :rolleyes: He was doubly miffed as he had had a slap on the nose from the yard cat for sniffing it as it went past, he'll never learn. That cat is quite used to putting horses in their place :rotfl:

    Still continuing with my very own grocery challenge, will go shopping on Tuesday, so I will have done nine days without going food shopping! Tonight's gastronomic delight is bubble and squeak with a fried egg. I've made a loaf for sandwiches tomorrow and used up the two manky bananas and made a cake.

    I'll pay a largish amount off the card tomorrow as well, that'll be the last one before the statement, still got my fingers crossed to see if I can get below the £2K figure. Find out on the 9th...

    daily update

    I've got 32.35 winging it's way from Quidco! Wasn't expecting it, so a very nice surprise and we all know where that's going...

    Paid 250.02 to A&L, provided it makes it before the statement cut-off, I should be under £2K.

    I'll be spending about 10.00 on tube fares to go to the Picasso exhibition this evening, but I haven't been out for ages and ages and a tenner is cheap!

    It's great isn't it? mine was from signing up to a couple of betting sites for matched betting. I need to knuckle down and get on with the matched betting, I finally cracked what it was all about, but find the searching for bets boring :o I also need to sign up for more free bets, sometimes I am very lazy....
