No problem Hypno, its nice to be able to help you in some small way
I was just thinking about this half-term and its been a really good week. We've been out and about almost every day, ds has seen various friends and so have I. I've had a huge sortout at home, the flat is tidy and clean, I've 99% made a mjor decision about not selling the flat after all and I've started yet another diet and have managed to do some exercise tooAs well as that I've managed to meet my feb £10 a day target and am now making a dent into making up Januarys money
I'm not particularly excited about going back to school tomorrow I must admit, but at least I feel refreshed and on top of things again at the momentMortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000

Feeling in control of things and making decisions really does make a difference - you sound as though half term came just at the right time for you - only a few weeks until Easter hols nowSuccessful women can still have their feet on the ground.

Its those ones Louise, I put the free bet on as soon as the match starts, I usually go for the favourite to win 2-1, and then once theres a goal (hopefully from the favourite) the odds at b/fair come right down and you can lay it and make a fairly good profit. Obviously it doesn't always happen like that and it could stay 0-0 or go against the favourites, but usually once theres a goal the odds become pretty profitable
Overall the odd times when it doesnt work are fairly rare and can usually make £5+ from a free £10 bet. Today I got £9 from doing this but the odds on the qualifying bet were rubbish and I lost £3 on that, so £6 profit overall

Oh I see, I just tried to do it as a straight forward match and almost had a funny turn with the odds changing so quickly!:o:rotfl:
I know better for next weekend, thanks BB;)
Still managed to make £20.81 over the weekend so not too unhappy:DBut these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
Dishwasher unloaded, ironing done, all things moved back to their rightful rooms (except ds trains
), ds tea made and demolished in seconds
, ds unifrom out ready for school and shoes cleaned (by ds :T) and even taught ds how to use the washing machine :rotfl:
Now need to sort out my dinner, although am happy to wait a little bit or I'll be starving again later. So far today I've had;
B/f: 2 x weetabix - 2 points
Lunch: 2 slices ww bread + philadelphia light, peppers + cherry tomatoes - 2 points
Snack: rice crispie bar - 2.5 points, frys choc cream - 4.5 points
So far I've had 11 points, so have 9 pionts left to enjoy tonightI've got a couple of ready meals in the fridge I bought earlier so may go and investigate one of those and also make some sugar free jelly while I'm there
