likklegibbon - that is great news
Nicki - hope the assesment has gone well today
OJK - just go for it, what do you have to lose?
Book lists - there are two lists - one is the BBC big read list which is about favourite books/novels, the other is a BBC list of books you should have read (so a little more highbrow than the poular ones) which Rach has posted on her Facebook page

I just need to hoover and that will be todays list finished, but the sun has just come out :j and I just have to go and [STRIKE]play[/STRIKE] work in the garden instead. I want to see if I can get a photo of the crocuses whilst they are open, then I need to crack on with the spring clearance of the front garden.

Going to find something out of the freezer for dinner tonight, forgot earlier

Mudbath

Thanks tootles - I slept all morning and feeling human again! My client has booked for next week and i've cancelled a night out tonight so i've actually ended up with more money than if i'd been well so that's a positive!!!

Lil_me - thanks for the advice about the service, we'll definitely do that. I also need to check the weight limit on the bunks. My two are skinny little things (they don't get it from me!!) but I'll check that out.

I'm debating picking up the argos stuff this afternnoon as i've reserved it and won't be able to go again for two weeks. I don't like keeping vouchers too long after the recent collapses of various shops etc.

After the caravan purchase we need to seriously cut down on spending!!! We paid for half of it and put the rest on a new interest free card. I can't believe i've agreed to going back in debt but the alternative was save up and get the caravan next year. This way is costing us no more and we get to go away all of this year. I'm trying to justify it to myself that way!!!

Gentle s/s ing for me this afternoon. I'll get there!

Hugs to you all xx
