    I wasn't in much of a fit state to get his number, but he gave it to my more sober friend in case she wanted to bring her class of kids up to London for a trip or some other excuse ;):D They did leave the bar at about 10 and then came back about 10 minutes later, he said that he told them he'd forgotten his coat but he didn't have one, he wanted to come back and see me :D

    I wasn't in any fit state to go car booting this morning, I would still have been over the limit even if I had managed to get out of bed :D

    Morning :D Ds has his physio appointment at the hospital today at 1.15 so we're having a tidy up this morning and then we'll go out. We need to do food shopping and petrol on the way back, so will be a big spend day :rolleyes: I also need to return a few bits to Next that have arrived that I'm not sure about.

    No reply from cute guy :rolleyes: but tbh I expected that, he is married after all. I had quite an early night last night and actually feel awake this morning for a change, obviously need to do that more often :D

    Nope no reply, but am not surprised really :rolleyes: Today I spent £48 in Tesco and £25 on petrol. Ds hospital visit went fine, they have finally discharged him :j

    I have done a small matched bet tonight that will make me £2.70, not much but all helps. I've also just picked up a mystery shop that pays me £5 fees and £5 reimbursement too for later this month :D

    Blow me, I thought it was quiet on your other thread. I subscribed to it yonks ago and only visited it every so often when I saw you'd posted. Tonight, eleven days after an update, I thought "This ain't right" and saw you started a new diary...:T

    Hope you and DS are happy. All's well up here, like you I'm glad the footie season has started. I began work at my football club (you know the one) in July as a website administrator so I get unhindered access to the players :eek::j and free entry into the games along with a laptop too. Money's not bad for a part-time position...twins are fine, I've been taking them to golf recently and they're showing a real talent for it so maybe this might be more their thing than football...

    Enough waffling, glad to see you're doing well. Keep up the good work, I'm just off to the MB thread (for the umpteenth time)...:rotfl:

    Welcome back Mart, did you see how well my team did on saturday?? :j

    Today we're off to the beach with a friend and her kids for the day, she has a beach hut down there, so we're taking a picnic and she has a kettle and chairs and stuff, the sun is shining, so it should be a good day hopefully :D

    Child benefit went in today so thats another £5 moved into the pot, bringing this weeks total up to £85.70, and with tonights matched bet it should hopefully bring it up to nearly £90, leaving me a tenner to find by the weekend ;) I do think its gonna be tough to find £100 every week, especially once I'm back at work :o

    Yep, that was a cracking result against a very good team. Maybe you're ready for an immediate promotion....:beer:

    We beat the team managed by John Barnes on Saturday and tonight we have Norwich, the team beaten 7-1 on Saturday at home...:eek:

    Hi Benben, I've taken your advice and have relisted my vouchers on eb*y with a buy it now price....and already have 2 watchers!! I'm asking £30 for £40 worth of vouchers (reserve of £28), fingers crossed.....

    I'm very jealous of your beach hut owning friend, hope you and DS are having a fab day. I'm stuck in the office looking at the sunshine outside and wishing I'd been organised enough this morning to get some washing done and out on the line....sad mare!
