    Morning everyone!
    Quick pop in for me as have to pack my bags, going to stay with OH's sister for the weekend so can't wait! Hopefully weather improves before we get to the boat so that it's not a rough crossing (OH is not a great traveller, we could have flown in 30 minutes but instead we are taking a two hour boat trip, followed by a two hour car journey!!)

    So today I have/will:
    • Daily scratches- 50p and 50p and a 50p log in bonus which took me over the £10 mark so a withdrawl was placed! Put it straight onto CC
    • Checked online banking- pence moved to ISA
    • HM breakfast and lunch
    • Was going to attempt to cut OH hair before we go with my dad's clippers but he decided he would rather pay the £5
    • £73.80 expected from cashback but will take a few days because of bank holiday- again straight onto credit card
    That's it for today, will prob spend a fortune this weekend while I'm away. Have a nice Bank Holiday weekend everyone

    Morning all!

    Nice and sunny here in Manc!
    Looking forward to the long weekend - have just about had enough of everything lately so 3 days off is just what I need!

    Met my latest doggie friend yesterday - a Great Dane called Scooby who's "mummy" is ill with stomach cancer and can't walk him. So Scooby and I are off to pound the streets and parks of Manc - I think it'll be him taking me for a walk though! (If anyone's interested I volunteer with a charity called the Cinnamon Trust who provide help to elderly/ill pet owners to try to keep the pet and owner together in difficult circumstances - its best for the dogs to stay at home in a familiar environment and good for the owner too in terms of company, companionship etc)

    Anyway, today's list is....
    • Brekkie at home
    • have to buy lunch but will keep it low
    • Storecupboard tea
    • Shopping at Aldi/Iceland at lunchtime
    • Walk my dog 3 times (one down 2 to go!)
    • Walk Scooby - can't put them together until he's very comfortable with me)
    • Stay in and watch soaps
    • Put one load of washing in and dry naturally
    Nothing else plannedf for today except WAITING FOR THE FLIPPING UNIVERSITY(S) TO LET ME KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON !!!!!!:mad::mad:

    Good Morning Everyone,

    Happy May to everyone – summer is round the corner!

    It’s Friday and the sun is shining = it’s going to be a good day!!!

    Sophiesmum – what time shall I come round for the bacon buttie?
    Fay – hope you feel better soon
    Hampster – love that you are continuing with your Pip campaign
    Pipsmum – bad joke, but cant resist laughing!

    I hope everyone who is going away for the weekend enjoys themselves

    Today I have/will:
    • Checked banking – god it’s looking really bad….I NEED to get a job, or win the lottery tonight!
    • Checked quidco – the money that I was expecting to be paid end of April has changed to May (this is to pay June’s bills)
    • Will that I get some money on the lottery tonight
    • Plants (were refered to as seedlings, but they are much bigger now) are outside enjoying the sun
    • Daily scratchy
    • Mum buying my lunch today as a treat (she is the best mum in the whole world)
    • Offered SIL a couple of tomato and courgette plants as new home gifts – explained that I have no money
    • Need to enter Sainsbury’s codes online to see if I have won anything
    • Talk to mum to buy the basics when we go shopping tomorrow (I am about £30 short for this month’s bills)
    • Continue to track ISA online as that is a big part of paying June’s bills – when I get a job, I will be saving £100 per month as a backup despite what CCCS might say
    • Enter online comps
    • Giving blood for the first time ever
    • Plan what veggies are going where in the garden – we have a 3m * 3m decked area which is going to be full of pots and planters
    • Job hunt

    Think that is about it, take care everyone
