    Morning all, well I got a few bits done last night but not much :o I did print off the cashback form and wrote to ex-mil, they're both ready for posting. I also did quite a bit of tidying up but the cleaning is still to be done. The dishwasher has been emptied but no doubt it will need doing again before we go.

    10p on the scratches, nothing much else to report. The sun is starting to come out so looking like its gonna be another nice day :)

    I have just bought a new phone, my old contract is up now and I have been looking around for a replacement as the actual phone I had was pants. Anyway, I've gone for a tocco lite through quidco/dialaphone, which has; 24 mth contract, 100 mins, unlimited texts, unlimited emails, 500mb mobile internet ;), its £20 a month but with £240 cashback from dialaphone and £35 from quidco, so in total its £480 with £275 to come back, so total of £205 or less than a tenner a month :j :j I've been wanting the email/internet bit for a while but couldn't justify the cost, but at that price I can :D:D

    Its with Orange I think Twinklie :) They do have another similar deal that works out at about £4.50 a month but thats without the internet/emails.

    I'm back from dinner, we went with mum and dad to the harvester as none of us had anything in for dinner. I have worked out my points and I basically just have enough for my frys chocolate cream treat tonight, but thats fine as I'm absolutely stuffed and don't think I'll be wanting any tea anyway :)

    So, ds is at mums baking a cake to take with us ;) and I hav a couple of hours to get everywhere clean and tidy and get packed and hopefully see a bit of the footie too :D

    Ironings all done, packings almost done, still got a few last bits to find and pack, but some of them are bits that I can't pack until the morning like toothbrushes. I need to make a list so I don't forget everything :)

    Just enjoying a bit of extra-time footie now before I do one last check that I've got everything.
