Urg - pick up some anti histamine tablets from chemist or supermarket - usually only about 80p for pack of 7 - one a day and stops the itching almost immediately.

Good morning everyone :hello:

Visited our wedding venue yesterday to catch up with the events lady - I'd forgotten how beautiful the place was! We are having the whole day in a barn at the edge of this beautiful Lake...almost shed a tear thinking abut how nice it will be! Fay, you would have loved all the willow trees! It has also got me feeling really motivated about organising things - 6 months to go!

So today:

• Reseach craft materials and prices - making own invitations
• Research buying wedding rings online
• Check online banking accounts to make sure all ok
• Heating off - beautiful blue skies again
• Storecupboard meals
• Washing at 30
• NSD
• Need to rest today as felt quite achy after going yesterday
• Watch Eastenders and a DVD with OH
• Sign up to DVD rental site - thru Quidco and 3 months free trial
• Catch up with friends using facebook and free texts
• Catch up on diaries and update my own

Lots of love
Have a lovely sunday everyone

Hi All :hello:

A happy weekend to you all!

This weekend I have/will do:

:j Mystery shop and report done yesterday
:j Look for more mystery shops
:j Free scratches - 2 x 10p and 1 x 25p today, think yesterday was 2 x 10p?
:j Do some washing in a min on 30 and hang on the line
:j Signed all the forms at the estate agents yesterday, moving day is officially 6th April - only 4 weeks and 1 day to go! :j :j
:j Continue sorting room for moving
:j Sit down with OH when he comes over later to write down what we have got and need to buy for the flat - my parents have given us £150 and one of my Nan and Grandads have given us £50 to put towards buying things for the flat - we have accumulated alot of things so I think we may be able to buy the rest with the £200. I have added it to my flat savings in my sig, which I feel a bit bad about as I feel I have cheated a little, but I need to save less now because we have been given it so I suppose it can go in my sig?
:j Try and get to the shops before it closes to look at £39 microwave
:j Sorted out going to my Nan and Grandads as they have told us we can raid their garage for flat things, they arn't sure what is in there, lol
:j Put 3 x £2 coins in piggy last night as well as waitressing tips that I am saving for the flat fund
:j Hopefully hear from the restaurant today to hear if I have got a job there and hopefully with some shifts for next week
:j See if there is enough ingredients in the cupboard to make my Mum a birthday cake then freeze it until I ice it next week - Cake is now made and is cooking nicely. When it is done I will let it cool then freeze it as it's not her birthday till next Sunday, so will ice it the end of next week. She loves penguins so I am going to make it a big round penguin
:j Dinner at other Nan and Grandads today - mmmm, Nans gravy is the best! :j
:j See if I can get on my seller page on Ebay now to put some things on
:j Sold £6.08 worth of things to Music Magpie, will send when labels come through
:j Put 5 books on Amazon
:j Done some surveys

Hi everyone, have spent a bit more than normal this weekend as it is OHs bday today and we went out to celebrate with friends last night. However, my head isn't sore so I obviously didn't go too mad!

1) Received £50 of free M&S vouchers yesterday:j :j from a newpaper promotion! Put them with pressie stash.
2) Scratch = 30p for weekend
3) OH's pressie stashed from Zavvi closing down sale. Complete Six Feet Under, and he was very pleased.
4) Went to Odeon Kids Club and took own sweets and drinks. The whole family got in for £5.
5) Got 2 packs of Plenty for free. (Voucher from paper and they were BOGOF)
6) Drank halves of lager in bar, instead of wine. (Might explain the clear head!) Walked instead of bussing it.
7) Salvaged nice pieces of wrapping paper from OH's pressies.

The In-laws are due any minute, they have come up from Cornwall for the day so it will be a nice family day. The local car-boot starts up again for the year today too, and I'm very excited. I hope I can persuade everyone to go!:D

Have a lovely Sunday everyone!

Hello All!

Double scratchies today!! And I was able to withdraw a tenner from TAB.

Need to put one more wash on and then hang outside before heading out. In the evening strict orders of tackling my finances and book piles instead of playing internet games like last night .

Hopefully no need for heating today, yesterday I was so poorly that despite having had heating on whole evening I went to bed in night shirt, leggins, woolly socks, long sleave T shirt and cardigan.

Anyway lovely weather here so need to go and make the best of it.
