    A bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you kick the bucket!! (Also its a very good film starring Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson, if you see it on anywhere its worth a watch)

    Mummy, Maternity stuff always seems to sell well on Ebay. I bought a few bits from there when I was pregnant with Pip. Listing 40 took forever but a few its already have bids so I am happy.

    Went to bank today thinking I was over my overdraft and nearly fainted to see it had 4 figures in there :j my payment from the savings account I closed down had come through :T. Going to pay off all of my A&L card and my Next card too then keep the rest in there for necesities now im on poopy SMP.

    Be back to update my signature later :j

    Mum2one our wilkos only sells chocs and sweets shame though.
