    It'll happen, benben - the stamp duty thing must go in your favour for first time buyers etc....I reckon Easter weekend will bring out the flat hunters.

    Evening all, yay the weekend is here :j :j
    £17 today from an ongoing offer a friend has been sorting out for me :) Other than that, no other money has come in or was spent today either.

    The plan for the weekend so far includes swimming tomorrow morning and food shopping and not a lot else so far, including no viewings on the flat so far either :(

    Morning all :) Last night I sat and watched E.T. with ds which was lovely, he hasn't seen it before and its one of my favourites, so was a nice thing to do. Then I went to bed at about 8.45, these early nights seem to be getting a bit regular now :o

    Swimming this morning, and then to tescos to do the shopping, but not sure what we're going to do after that yet.

    Weigh-in day today and I've stayed the same this week, but I don't mind that as the last couple of days have shown a 1/2lb loss but not today, but hopefully next week it will again :)

    staying the same is fine - I've been good so far this week, always within points, but my scales say no shift either.....we can't expect to lose every week, but mustn't lose focus otherwise we will be back where we started! You're doing fine! We will be slim and lovely......we will be slim and lovely.......we will be slim and lovely :)

    My DD loves ET! I remember going to see it when it came out at the cinema.....:D

    We went to swimming and ds did well, then we went to tescos and spent £45 although the cupboards are all full to bursting this time so I'm hoping not to need much next week :o

    We were planning on a walk down the beach later but the rain is piling down yet again so maybe a change of plan. I think we might make some craft stuff as ds is at his dads on friday and saturday and then its Easter, so no other time really to do it. I also need to do the end-of-the-month finance checking too :)

    Grr, have been doing the finances and have just realised that the cheque I gave ds breakfast club at the beginning of January still hasnt been cashed :mad: It makes me really mad as they always make a point of asking for it at the beginning of term and here we are, less than a week away from the end of term and they still haven't cashed it :mad: :mad: Next time I think I will pay cash so I know its gone ;)
