Needs must when the devil vomits into your kettle! Bob's cunning plan mark 2

Well today, i found i had a bit of time on my hands.... as you do. Was meandering in town browsing in Charity book shops. We have a wonderful one here that supports a local hospice...and oh my...............


I found loads of those revision books, full guides..you name it they had it..and all for the price of 50p:T Manna from Heaven. So i spent £10 ( i have lots of pupils sitting GCE's and what not, lots of practice SATS papers too.:D:D:D

And the best part is that not only have i saved money, but it is reimbursed too:T

I am amazed as when i order the books direct they are outrageously priced. Education the MSE way eh?:rotfl:

Then i went into a cheapie book shop ( new ones reduced) and got some more AQA ones with CD Roms for the bargainous price of £3...i am amazed as it is the full course with everything in.

To say i am a happy bob today is an understatement. The pupils won't be happy, but hey ho!:rotfl:

Other news is that the garden is looking a bit more decent and maybe won't be so embarrassed having visitors through the back door.:eek:

Oh and i have also done loads of washing:o

Good to see everything is chipper and you're making progress on the moneysaving and home fronts.

Just wonder how long it'll be before Pepe comments on that post though...

Well in reality George, that's the nearest i personally get to any !!!!!!:o Unlike another member of my household:eek:. I am surprised you resisted commenting though, well other than the comment on the comment:rotfl::rotfl:

I just remembered that i also had a tax rebate of £60..beats rummaging down the sofa eh?:rotfl:

I just realised a few of the comments could be twisted..but then again my brain does work that way..now all you have to do is spot them....hahahaha

Yeah they have MSE stamped all the way through them.:D

Bob's top tip for the year i reckon.

Car boots, charity shops etc, are a far cheaper way of picking up these books and a lot of the older ones especially maths ones are far better explained than some of the new ones ( without the eye watering colours too!):D

You seem to have found your oomph again - glad to see that - and well done on the tax rebate!

I do feel pretty positive. I think it is helping that i am over that rotten virus, energy levels are good and i am sleeping well at the moment. I still have the odd night where snoring is a problem, but as they are fewer rather than more..well it helps tremendously.I didn't realise how tired i had become.
Thank God for the NHS and the snoring squad!:rotfl:
