    I really need to get a move on after work and get some clothes packed for my holiday or else we'll be at some French Naturist meet up!!

    Hope you all have a nice day.

    ooooh sawyer - I am very disappointed in this new series of Lost on the sawyer point - they've made him straighten his hair and put on those awful overalls and he's gone all goody ish!!! I VOTE they make him get into a fight where his clothes are ripped off him to reveal his gorgeous bod!!!!!!!!! then he gets into a rage and gets hot and sweaty with one of the female extras, I'd be up for the job....phew need to go take a cold shower ha ha!

    Right mse wise. Got lots to do then I need to make a start on putting things on ebay to make up my totals for the challenge. Going to finish dd's room this morning, but it has been decluttered and organised within an inch of it's life. Then a fun day planned with the cousins and my dad later.

    Oops also I got an invite to invite people to join pinecone research. I don't get anything for it but I know a few people were wanting to get on there. If you do you need to pm me your e-mail and I send you a copy of the letter that you can register from. Hope this helps someone.x

    well can't say I had the best nights sleep but the phone certainly didn't ring! :) thanks for all your lovely words as usual!

    I am saying nothing about my post count, or thanks as they are ridiculous numbers!! :) lol

    I am going to update the totals now whilst I have a few mins.

    scattymam - Sawyer is what gets me through the week. I used to love Jack, but then Sawyer went "bad guy went good" but now hes just too good, but I still would :D Just wish he wasn't with plastic-doll Juliet. I told my OH he looks like Jack in the dark if you half close your eyes! haha! (so not really like Jack at all then!!!)

    Well as you can see girls we have some congratulations in order. Rainmac and Skiergirl have achieved "Thrifty Gifty Baby Budgie" status :T and RustyFlange has achieved "Thrifty Gifty Elf Rider" status with their brilliant totals! :T:T:T

    The rest of you are doing really well and are completely on course for getting the £75 in the challenge and I am so proud of you all for doing so well! I am positive Furrypig is keeping her ideas for £75 challenge and their running totals close to their chest aren't you girlies?:confused::p:D:rotfl:



    {I am omitting to tell you most of my total is from cashback, which isn't good because it means I've spent a fortune :rotfl:but better than if I didn't get any cashback at all :D}

    Today we are meeting up with some of the mum's up the school over the local country park with the children - brilliant fun and its free. Yipppeeee can't wait.

    It's Harri's last day in pre school nursery today so bless him he's armed with cakes so they can all have a little treat:D

    Sorry to hear about your grandad Jammy but good to hear that he is peaceful. My grandad (my dad's dad) passed away when I was 12 and I still think about him all the time. I am not religious but do really believe he and my nan can see me and my family and watch over us (bet my nan has a right laugh at me trying to control my 2 headstrong little monkeys!:p).

    Thanks for the totals Jammy, keeping us all track. We're all doing brilliantly I think :D. I'm doing quite well again this week too ;)

    PLM, I am another one who knew nothing of bars for vampires :o I love the wording in your post about Rudolph Day, you really should write a book or something as you have such a way with words :D

    Have a fab day Shelley, we're going to head out to the park later, weather permitting, been pretty wet here overnight.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Morning ladies, hope everyone is ok and sending massive hugs to all those who need them.

    Jammie, sorry to hear things aren't too good with your grandad :( hope you are staying strong.
    I do have a new updated total and I am approx £85 off my £500 target, I may well ask you for a new level if I can do this one sooner rather than later, but that is for another day when you have less on your hands.



    I wrote a big long reply then decided to delete it all.

    Have a good day all xxx
