No need to be waiting eagerly for my postman.....the little bUgg3r only brought me a Tesco Mother & Baby magazine - I wouldn't mind but my son is 8. He is well out of nappies and pureed food.
Nothing else, nada, zilch - need to wait and see what tomorrow brings.
I'm hoping for an improvement.
Will have a little flick through the week's post and see what I can do to amuse myself today.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

Do you hate bank hols cos its an extra day with no post?! You could always kill time looking for those shuffles and putting them on ebay?
Are you off work all weekend?
Firesidemaid - its the thing with courgettes isn't it, once they start coming its hard to keep on top of them. Have you tried soup? that uses up quite a lot and good if you have weather like we have here (tipping it down).A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0 -
Aargh!! Forgot the bank holiday weekend!! Never mind I head back to London on Sunday afternoon, so no post on Monday won't make any difference to me really!:p
I'm nightshift Sunday - Thursday (2 nights of which are bank), and then long days Saturday-Monday. Fly home last flight on Monday night. A whole weeks post to wade through yay!!!!:j

Good times - turns out my husband has a real talent for memory:T. He actually remembers the registration of the brand new Ford Puma we bought in 2001!!! They couldn't locate our agreement without the registration number, and I want a copy to enquire whether PPI was added to it. Whatta guy! (Yay! Another letter to do
).
Bad times - just went online to tax the car as the current disc is up at the end of the month. It tells me I don't have a valid MOT:eek:. Just checked - it expired 8th July 2011!!! Luckily hubby's friend owns his own garage and will do our MOT in the morning. My brother in law is away for the weekend, so we have his new Fiesta to run around in. Crisis averted!
Expecting the car insurance renewal in soon - will of course be shopping around and then renewing via Quidco.
GE Money want the account number of the secured loan I want the agreement for - despite me writing to them stating I am unable to provide the account number but providing a whole host of other information:mad:. Will be composing a little "!!!!!!" letter.
Sitting down with a cuppa to clip out the discount vouchers for Costco. Going to buy washing powder, softener and toilet roll as well as bottles of lucozade sport for DS football training. Saves buying them on a Saturday at £1.40 a time!:money:LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

Just realised I will get Sunday money all night on Sunday and half of my nightshift on Monday.
Working on the antenatal ward recently, and you will have noticed its usually quiet and I spend lots of time doing MSEish things. The nights I do bank are generally on Labour Ward (anything but quiet!), and there's no sign of me! Never mind having the Sunday premium on 2 shifts should help my shift allowance next month.
I will endeavour to find said ipod shuffles x 2 before I head south:o.
Off to have a quick check of the ebay goodies.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

All of the surveys in my inbox have been done :money:
Just the letter to Ford Credit to do - I do hope they marvel at my hubby's incredible memory. Would be nice to find even just one of our agreements had PPI....
Then complete the form to GE Money Home Lending with yet another covering letter.
After that, boredom awaits.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free
