    thanks, it's so exciting!!! we have lots of jaffa cakes here although the petrol involved in getting here would be a bit steep! DS settled for a big box of tescos own instead of the posh ones - he was having friends round and I thought he might be sensitive to own brands but he said they taste the same so who would be mad enough to buy the posh ones! My MSE child - so proud!:D

    Yay day off tomorrow-and a PROPER day off too. No mystery shops even although I've quite impressed myself how much they've brought in this month. My target was £100 (in fees) and I hit that before mid month.
    Lots of late tax stuff/spreadsheets to do and general paperwork before I can even THINK of looking at the sock mountain and general housework. So lots to do tomorrow-need to hit Aldi too

    Off to watch a bit of TV and then decide if I'm staying up all night doing paperwork or just setting the alarm for (too) early

    Got an email offering me a MS visit....to a funeral home today.....I declined LOL
