Afternoon everyone!
Just got back from work, was very very boring today! Weather is awful so town is pretty empty, therefore all retail staff bored out their minds. Never mind.
Cinny - i am so excited for you!! Oh and its Majorca that we're going to, a week tomorrow, got so much to sort out!Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0 -
Lol thats very definite TPA, may I ask why?!
Where shall I start?
Because you need a rest
Because you would love to play house
Because NIM would love to come home to you in pinny (& nothing else probably;))
Because you need time to enjoy life
Because you will waste your leave trying to use it up in time for the end of year
Because
Because
Because...............

You're very right TPA, you've hit the nail on the head there. I'll find out when they are away and book myself a treat week.
I wish female liberation hadn't happened sometimes, I welcome the choice, but we don't really have it do we, most people have to work, and I would much rather stay home taking care of my family and hubby.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Think i would be a bit concerned about the account number aswell!! Very strange!
Feeling a bit bored at the minute. Quite a few friends are going out tonight but have decided what with the holiday and everything i should try and have a low spend week - bit boring really!! Oh well will be worth it when we're on holiday!
So instead spending my saturday night listing some things on ebay and doing some surveys!Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0 -
Hmm just got my tax bill in for £200, so I thought I'll fill in my return online and see if it will come down a bit.
So after entering my figures twice and then getting OH to check them it seems that not only do I note owe anything, but have in fact overpaid by £310!!! YAY!
I need to triple check everything on Monday, but if it's true I will only need to make £2.50 a day until September to reach my targets rather than over £5. Cooool.:A :heartpuls June 2014 / £2014 in 2014 / £735.97 / 36.5%0 -
Hey everyone thank you for your kind words!
I dont know lara about an electric water heater, we have a boiler thing which does the hot water for the sinks (kitchen and bathroom) but for the shower there is this red electric switch you have to turn on before you have a shower? could this be to do with the high usage maybe because people always leave it on?
(I share with 4 by the way)
Cinny I was thinking you should deffo make a flyer or something with info and a picture of say, 12 cakes in a box (the ones you were talking about) and say how you do birthdays/weddings/occasions and your number etc and how people could order from you? Just because not all people will buy there and then, but this might spark some interest for what they might be good for? (I might not buy 1 expensive cupcake to just eat, but i might buy 12 for a birthday or something?) especially with the trend seeming to be people taking in cakes for their own birthdays and therefore wanting to maybe show off...?
Just a little thought sorry!
PS I think you do live nearish me, you'll have to tell me where the stall is and I'll come along and buy some cakes and eat them near the stall and profess very loudly about how yummy and perfect they are - advertising honest! - yey!
