    Well I've exhausted all of the free points offers with Maximiles I could find. Still needing almost 800 points to claim a voucher, so hoping for a few survey invites to come my way :).

    Valued Opinions have yet to remove their digit from their anus.

    The parcel is packaged and ready for collection tomorrow. Off to get a few things listed on eBay and Gumtree. Planning a NSD today. Have taken chicken out of the freezer for tonight's dinner.

    Having a few problems complaining to RBS - their website appears to be crashing on a regular basis:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

    Have listed a few items on Gumtree:j:j:j. The post an ad page wasn't loading for a while, but I went away had a cup of tea, tried again and it was miraculously fixed. My life immediately got better.

    Weightwatchers scales £10
    Nintendo DSi with games £80
    Sports Bag £5
    Freeview box £10

    Waiting on DS finishing from school - it's his last day and he is very excited. Plus, he got the most wonderful school report, I'm very proud:D. Apparently he is both popular and bright:A.

    Off to try RBS website again, and try to file my complaint and request for compensation.

  • RBS or Ulster Bank here is a pile of uselessness, I will be facing a late payment fee on my card because the direct debit hasn't been took yet, I will definitely be getting compensated.

    Complaint has been made, polite request for compensation made ;).

    BTW Conisme RBS have confirmed they will refund all late payment fees etc incurred as a result :D.

    Off now to list my Christmas Tree on Gumtree:j.

    Had a conversation with Cole last night about making lots of money for Australia. He is going to look out some bits for Gumtree and eBay for Mum to sell so he can buy new stuff in Australia:A.

    Best also think about getting the car boot sale organised:o.

    Can't sell too much at the moment as still have visitors coming to stay for our party in July! Can't sell the bed out from underneath them:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

    Saw Martin's Blog about his new show starting on ITV in September - very upset that I won't see this :(.

    Planning on fitting in baking some cakes and doing last night's dinner dishes at some point! Preferably before hubby comes in from work and commences moaning ;).

    Christmas tree listed.

    Just waiting on Cole to come in from school, then starting the dishes and maybe the cakes.

    Will pop up to the local shopping centre tonight and kill several birds with one stone (proverbially). Will swap my Nando's card over, spend my Boots points and buy brown packing tape from the Pound Shop which I need. :)

    Cole in from school, missing his friends already! Never mind, he is already changed and out to play:).

    Dishes are done, I'm now dabbling with the idea of baking cakes.

    Unfortunately I can't go over the door while Cole is out playing. Small problem is that I don't have a sauce (or the ingredients to make one) for the chicken tonight.:mad:

    Will need to wait until hubby gets home so I can pop out to get some!

    Have decided I'm going to spend my Boots points on some more Banana Boat suntan lotion as its half price at the moment:j. Think I probably only have enough points for one, so it will be a pleasant surprise if there is more!

    Will probably head out to Sainsburys at some point tomorrow to spend my Nectar points. Mustn't forget to swap over my Nando's card so I don't lose my rewards - I have a half chicken on one and a whole chicken on another :).
