    Completed my list for today and then did some more! Marru, sounds like you had a good time at the course and its been a good day's break for you.

    Hope everyone has a good start to the week and remember that its only five days before the long bank holiday weekend.

    Thanks for the link Lurleene :T. I'll try flogging some books here :beer:
    Good luck - I really must get round to flogging some myself instead of buying the things. :o However, I haven't bought a new book at all this year, in fact I still have a Waterstones voucher left over from Christmas. I love the fact that you can buy e-vouchers from Green Metropolis. That will definitely be top of my Christmas list.

    Well, I very nearly had a No Spend Weekend - absolutely unheard of for me. But I've just surprisingly won a Monsoon top off ebay despite a last minute sniper. Ha Ha.

    I've also listed a couple of dresses on there myself, so I shall be watching them with hot anticipation all week.

    I am off to bed with a good book to prepare for the week ahead. See you tomorrow,

    I had my bank account put on block and was supposed to be going to London. But since I can't access my money that went out the window... that's pretty money saving hahaha.

    I also organised my room and rearranged the furniture and found a few things to sell on ebay. Joy

    Thanks for all the welcomes :D

    Have had a fairly productive day.

    Got 3 things on ebay,
    did 1 1/2 hours tidying and sorting, putting things away etc more bits in the recycling/charity bag
    Finished my square and made 2 more for my blanket (they're only little squares)
    Had my NSD (was about to buy a track from itunes but remembered!)
    Did a bit of gardening but started to rain :mad:

    So the only thing I failed with completely was paperwork but I did get some ironing done and 2 more loads of washing and I'll be back tomorrow with a new list - unfortunately paperwork is a must :rolleyes:
