TPA
You've been busy this week! Well done on reallocating those costs for the presents, sometimes it's far better to do that than have people guess at what to buy. BTW - I will not be a spoil sport, you keep that credit card!
Need to look up that Tesco offer - wasn't aware, hope it's still on!0 -
Yeh I feel positivley human again today:j
I have completed two Mshops, one of which was disgusting! To cut a very long story short one was meal, when it arrived a bit of it was missing, I aksed (politely) if it was possible to have the missing item, member of the kitchen staff picked up said item from another plate (with her fingers) and put it on my plate:eek:. When I said could I have one without fingers I was looked at like I was on another planet:eek::eek: Needless to say I will not be repeating this experience......ever! I feel sick just thinking of it!
Have finally done the maths for this month (a week late) we are running at 63.56% now offset against the mortgage:j.
Shopping news: NS day today except for amount needed for MShops. My blanket has arrived from BHS it is the 'snuggliest' blanket I have ever owned, no socks though...have no idea where they are. Last night I managed to order a new pair of work shoes (mine have been squeaking for weeks, so I finally took a look at them and both had huge splits in the bottoms - i'm such a skin flint tramp!), new shoes were reduced from £37.99 to £14.99 nice leather ones with free p&p and Topcashback too:j.
I have to say I am fed up with fireworks now, my poor dog has decided this year he doesn't like them, well they have been going off here for a week and he is like a nervous wreak.

Went out last night having not eaten much and enjoyed copious amounts of wine..........lets just say I later had a close encounter with the toilet bowl. At my age that is discracful and something that hasn't happen for years!:o Ever time I shut my eyes the room kept moving and I'm sure my bed was on roller skates:rolleyes:.
Thanks TPA :T. Went out last night & thought of you so only had 3 glasses of wine & then had ginger beer so no hangover this morning :cool:. However, still feeling wrecked as didn't get in till quarter to 4and was awake at 8.30 :rolleyes:.

Glad you suffered too!!!!!
Todays been a NS day and I've managed one MShop!
Other than that I've spent the day getting a very good friend a much needed hospital bed, the NHS at times is a strange beast.
Hope everyone is ok.

Hi TPA
I've just caught up and am glad to hear that everyone enjoyed their weekendsSurprisingly I didn't suffer from a hangover and I'm still trying to finish off all the half empty bottles in the fridge so I'll have to be AF next week :rolleyes:

Evening all. I'm currently at my 'extra' evening job, just on my break. In addition to earning extra wonga (always wanted to type that!) I've also had a NS day:j
My darling hubby made me my lunch so there would have been no excuse to spend even if I wanted too!
Some more good news on the money front Next have promised to transfer £30 into my bank account after making a rather big booby! So with the MS's and tonights work i've already reached my £10 a day target for extra 'earnings'.:j

AF members seem to be doing well, I am especially [STRIKE]amazed[/STRIKE] proud of GG!:D
Today is going to be another no spend day (now thats positive thinking!) No extra monies today but I have managed to negotiate a MS for Monday in a town I was already visiting for an extra 80% on the original fee offered, am very proud of myself for my bare faced cheek!:rotfl:. So far I have 3 MSs booked for Monday all in the same town and am hoping to pick up a few more.
I've not been very productive today, hay ho I am desined to live in a !!!!!! hole for the rest of my life - I really ought to invite the MIL over as that would certainly encourage me to clean up:p
Right off for a cup of tea and a bit read!
