Morning (just!) all!
Am shattered today due to errant OH rolling in at 3am drunk and not very well after the footy. He's suffering today but has the day off so can stay in bed whilst I got up at 6.30am, walked the dog and came to work for fascinating videoconferences (not).
Never mind, I expect copious amountsof crawling from him when I get home.
Today I have/will...- Try to stay awake at work!
- Brought lunch with me to work
- Walk dog for free exercise
- Start packing for business trip on the weekend
- Have a NSD
- Check banks - all as expected

Hi Debs
yes have tried lovefilm before (and Amazon and Blockbuster online!)but found they weren't sending me what I wanted, when I wanted, and I didn't use them enough. So now I prefer to rent as and when I want to watch stuff, works out cheaper in the long run than paying a DD every month for something I don't use!0 -
Hi Sophie's Mum and everyone,
Scratchcards - I do the butlin's one http://www.butlinsbingo.co.uk/butlinsbingo/bingo/home/ but there is another one called take a break, I don't do it but I think it's here http://www.takeabreakbingo.co.uk/promotions#FREE%20DAILY%20SCRATCH%20CARD . I registered on Butlin's with £10, played to get 10p and then took the £10 back into my bank account. Not an expert but it looks like
months to get £10 unless you win big. The fishes with lippy are the 10p symbols so it's not good to get 3 of those. Hope this helps.
- Check online banking - done
- Update money spreadsheet - done
- Put on a load of laundry and air dry - done
- Scratchcard - 10p
- Go to the gym - done
- Check on seedlings
- Empty my inbox
- Search for a job
- Finish the ironing - all but 3 things done - pile is much smaller
- Ebay something before end of the month.
