    I used to play mirror bingo a lot, before i was a good MSE girl lol.

    I won £1000 on a full house evening special once though so liked the site!

    I have been to see my family in Brighton today so no money making for me!

    Thanks :). I can see why you liked them lilmiss, as stupid as it sounds even £1000 would be a little bit life changing as I could get rid of an overdraft, I just can't wait for the day when they money in my bank is actually mine!

    I was terrible when I got my car, I wouldn't even wait another 2 days so the tax run into a new month, I'm so impatient. Fiestas are really nice to drive though, I remember one time when my mum, brother and sister all had one, it was quite funny seeing them one behind the other on the drive.

    Morning girls and Happy Easter. Why is it when you can have a lie in you're awake lol.

    Yep I can't wait until Friday. I keep thinking about it lol. I will love half a month on the tax but oh well, I think all the money I've made over the months counteract these kind of things so it's all justified in one way or another.

    I didn't play Mirror Bingo in the end as I already had an account aparently, and I was obviously being thick last night as I didn;t think to play in OH's name - duh.

    Well done on all the wins though girls, hope you all have a nice day x
