    I was only thinking yesterday that I'm sure Tomorrow's World and other such programmes promised my generation robots that we would programme to do our housework for us. I thought they were going to cost the same as an average priced vacuum cleaner. What happened?

    I think Stuart could design us one!

    Well my hubbys still not home from work, he left at 6am this morning!! I wouldn't mind but I've cooked a yummy tea, oh well if it goes cold I will give it to the dog!

    Good news on the money front, £40:j odd that has been owing for ages via topcash back has finally been received, also hubbys bank change didn't track initially on Quidco some 4 months ago, well it has now, thats another £50:j

    Had a lovely day today working with someone who I don't normally come across, one of lifes genuinely lovely ladies.

    Right i'm off to feed hubbys dinner to the dog!

    Shame about the dinner going to waste. Has he called to say what the problem is?

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Oh yes he text me, 10 minutes after dinner was ready, to say he was going to be late:mad: Bearing in mine this was already two hours after normal 'home' time.
    Anyway the dog loved his dinner:rotfl:

    Good news I have just picked up my very first MS invloving test driving a car, pays well too:j(£40) Lets just hope I don't fall in love with the car and buy it!!

    Bad news - ordered my plum slate, total cost including VAT and delivery £90.85:eek: although they can deliver it this pm so :j

    So all in all its been a rather spendy week, it seems if I had waited until Monday to order or bedroom furniture I would have got double the points..bum!
