    I thought i should try and do a similar thing with dooyoo wendz, dont think a review a day is too difficult or unreasonable. Its just getting myself into gear!

    Have set myself a mini challenge for tomorrow, spend no more than £20 on food shopping! I went through the cupboards and freezer and realise we have quite a few bits that could last me for another week. OH is quite fussy with food so he wont eat what we've got left, but should still be doable. Have made myself a list, wish me luck!!

    I know what you mean. I think the fact i am doing so rubbish on make 5 pounds a day this month has encouraged me. I usually earn about 1000 points with a review on dooyoo so would take me less than two months to get 50 quid which would help a lot!

    Hi everyone, just popping in. Poddle that's brilliant about the freelance stuff well done!! :T

    And Cinny those white brownies sound lovely. My brownie stash from the other night has been decimated today by my dad who thought he'd have four of them with a cuppa instead of lunch :rolleyes:

    Pilchard sounds like you're having a nightmare at the mo - if it makes you feel any better though, if building control in your area are anything like my OH, they'll love a good arsey bloke to get their teeth into so don't worry they'll have him digging his foundations two metres deeper than they need to be and putting the most expensive type of nsulation in even though it doesn't need it :D Oops have I said too much? :D

    Oh I know what you mean about Dooyoo, I'm really lagging beind in my 2009 challenge, and that's with doing crappy revies of my yoghhurts and cereal bars every day :o

    I've just written a lovely long letter to an old friend I haven't been properly in touch with for a few years, bringing her up to date on everything that's been happening, feel like I've done an exam thogh now, got a bump on my finger and everything! OK, its after nine, that's officially late enough to be classed as bedtime isn't it? :j

    He is a chef, and the kitchen where he works doesnt close until 11pm, then by the time he has cleaned up etc its at least midnight - often later - until he gets home. I dont always wait up for him but i havent seen him today and wont really see much of him tomorrow either!

    Have just done a review on dooyoo - from now on i aim to do one a day!!

    Mmm bedtime - makes me want to curl up in my jammies. It's so good having the bank holiday weekend - no work for me until next Wednesday. I am going to go for DIY takedown.

    Oooh Cinny that Hummingbird bakery book sounds nice. White chocolate brownies - 'nomnomnom' ! Would they be called whities instead? Also I will be moneymaking and MBing, or else you lot have to give me lines to write.

    Flower and Tinkerbel you guys are doing so well! Don't worry about jobs anyway - there will be stuff for sure. It's nice to take some time off and do something a bit casual after such a sustained period of work. Good luck!

    Have a fab time Dinah and NIM! L x x x

    He does sometimes, not all that often though!! When i moan that he should cook for me his answer is "well would you want to serve customers in a shop on your day off?" - fair point i suppose lol.
    Im more like his tester really, if he comes up with a new idea or they put something new on the menu at work i have to test it - suits me!!
    He has his advantages seen as though my cooking skills are very very low!
    One thing he doesnt do enough is bake cakes!!
