Hi
Off to Egypt - sun!!!!!! I bet we have nice weather here while we are away - just look at the sunshine.
BF and I agreed that we wouldn't go mad and do everything and buy everything we like. We only clutter up the flat!
Oh well - better get moving or it'll never get done!

-Storecupboard breakfast, packed lunch and storecupboard tea
-NSD
-Check for MS- lost one to another shopper just as I was signing up for it!

Ps Got a great balance transfer LOB 5.9% rate from Amazon CC today - just phoned up and asked and they said yes. Never tried it before but worth a try phoning your existing cards to ask if anyone else needs a better rate. Thanks Martin!!** Official DFW Nerd Club Member 009**

morning all :hello:
yay, the sun's come out!
Busy day for me today...- eating from storecupboard (just had dippy eggs for breakfast as needed to use them up - how good are dippy eggs?!? :drool:)
- checked my banking and two people that owe me money have paid me (for holiday booked through quidco
) - I have used a #5 bet on betfair that gets refunded if I lose but I get #49 if i win (cross everything!!)
- go and buy 2 x work presents of vouchers that people have paid me for - no way of getting baby GAP or John Lewis vouchers with any cashback or anything I guess

- collect my dry cleaning
- do some washing on 30 and dry inside whilst I'm out voucher shopping!
- meal plan for my lovely abel and cole box that came yday
- read a book that my pal lent me
- buy some visitor parking permits for outside the flat :mad: not very DFW but it's #5 a day or #2.50 an hour if you pay and display... you need to buy them in advance and you can't exactly charge houseguests for them! :rotfl:
- go to a houseparty and take our own booze :beer:
- not go to the football
even though my team only play in London twice a year
:(:(
