angelflower_2

what a beautiful weekend it has been. We went for our drive yesterday which was so nice. Stopped off at a wee fishing village called Ellie and took the dog for a walk on the beach. It was a bit windy and still picking sand from lots of dodgy places LOL Spend some money on our fish and chips too but luckily the queue wasnt as long as normal so only about a 20 in wait.

Today been to church and taken dog for another long walk around local woods which was fab. Now am home and need to get some uni stuff done but I just cannot get motivated. I am currenly playing some bingo using scratchy money. Will stop shortly tho as taken weeks to get this far LOL

- so far only spent planned petrol money
- been to visit horse. He is going back to his owners at the end of this month so should be a bit more towards debt soon
- eaten last of my chocolate easter eggs and swear I will not buy any more
- take some soup out freezer for next week
- left overs for tea (spanish chicken....feel like been eating it for ever now!)
- check online banking
- check online cc
- scratch and click
- some freebie bingo
- washing on radiators tonight
- write and envelope 2 debt letters (one with a cheque enclosed for payment)
- plan my new garden redesign and then put it in bin as I cant afford it but will get out my system
- return some borrowed dvd's to a friend
- more preperation for money management course which starts on Tue
- some uni work and submit TMA4 (which was due a month ago)

Think that is all I will manage

And don't even get me started on people who park in mother and baby spaces who haven't got children!!:mad::mad:

My mam once tried to get me to park in one of those when DS wasn't with us and when I refused saying they were parent andchild spots, she went, 'well, we ARE parent and child' :rolleyes: :rotfl:

:mad: :mad: at the parking fine urg - my disabled friend was recently fined £35 by a jobsworth for displaying her blue badge upside down:mad: :mad: in a disabled parking bay.

Thats awful SM, can she not appeal, surely these things happen and if the papers got hold of that they'd have a field day.:mad:

Bagpuss, enjoy the Indian head massage course, i love Indian head massage and absolutely love receiving it, giving it is also nice.

Check out this website as it is great for finding out about Indian head massage and other treatments plus they have a student section so if you have any queries you can post in there.

This is the site i am always going on about when i say i am going to read the business website as it has a great section for business and marketing specifically for therapists.

Might be doing some volunteer work tomo with police puppy dogs, so thats my good deed, doing it all week!
Other than that im feeling dead sleepy! May get a curry to reward myself on studying well....oh dear spending..will get the money saving plan with finances started tomo!

Urg123...so sorry about the parking ticket, thats terrible, ive had the other car mirror wacked and refusing to pay another 250 pounds for repair. Going to fix it myself!
Andan. Long list for you as always, but sounds positive, im very into the beauty stuff, is there a way i can learn it at home? Massages and aromatheraphy sound good

Hey everyone, I am on a giddy high from a huge orgy of buying things:o . I got loads of current books, a DVD, an Animal handbag, school uniform, toys, jeans and light-up wellies for T, a CD, toileteries and assorted other bits. Still it all came to under a tenner - I LOVE THE CAR BOOTY BOOTY:j :j Sorry, but I have been waiting for weeks for them to start up again.:o

Haven't done too much DFW, apart from scratchies, but have had a frugal-ish weekend. We went to a local play farm yesterday which is very good value for money and spent most of today bootying and catching up on housework.

We also heard what primary school T will go to yesterday, and are more than happy with where he is going so that is good news and one less thing to worry about.

Have a good evening everyone - it looks like a good telly night on BBC1 for me so that's what I'll be doing, making the most of the licence fee!
