At the very least I would ring the bank and tell them what happened. Did you hang around and make sure that no money came out? Can you go in on monday? It should be easily sorted as any money unclaimed from the machine gets taken back in and then it gets recredited once they sort out the error on the next working day (mums been thru this before).

Pipsmum: That is excellent!!!

I am feeling better today. Will put on the list everything I would like to achieve this weekend but if feeling poorly again might have to be gentle with myself. So here goes:

- Scratchies
- Curly
- Cashback bingo
- Online banking
- Spreadsheets
- Finally finish self employment accounts last tax year
- Letter to bailiffs
- Letter to council
- Cut grass
- Little bit of hokey cokey
- Continue sorting books
- Do rescue operation in fridge to salvage all the veggies before they go off
- Have two NSDs - Had one NSD
- Take DD out to play with her scooter and go to local park - free entertainment
- Find cheque book, if can't find, order new one
- Find wrapping paper, if can't find, improvise found!
- Take DD to birthday party tomorrow, present from stash and card from box that I got from pound shop
- Clip The Dog's claws
- Meals from what is in
- Go and visit local car booty to find out if that would be a good place for me to sell my books
- Check Freecycle if there is an acoustic guitar needing a new home (saw two guitars in charity shop yesterday and really really want one, used to play about 30 years ago) There seems to be more demand than guitars on offer. If I wanted to buy one it would cost me £150 with accessories that is same than the bed that I need and that I decided I couldn't afford - sighs...
- Tidy DD's room
- Debone chicken that was in SC last night
