Morning Tigz, I haven't been there, I've only been to the reptillery place near Lyndhurst, don't think its the same place though. Its beautiful here today too, no volcanic ash in sight :rotfl::D

£4 profit from the first matched bet, another one to do later on. My sister and I have decided to do a car boot at the end of May, so this gives me a few weeks to get the stuff sorted out properly.

I've had a very lazy afternoon, I've entered about 40 comps but really haven't done much else but am sat on the sofa with the laptop with the sun streaming in through the window making me quite sleepy

£4 profit from the other bet too

Thanks Savingmore, he's really chuffed with himself, its been a great fortnight for him, he has just about got the hang of riding his bike without stabilisers too, so he's very proud

I'm just getting ready to go to the pub with a mate and guess what ... I can fit into my skinny jeans again :j :j I haven't worn them since God knows when, it is a very tight squeeze but the buttons are done up and thats good enough in my book

Back from the pub already, friend was tired so just went for a couple of quiet ones. Now tucked up in bed with the laptop and Match of the Day on, bliss

Morning all Another beautiful day here today, just enjoying it with a coffee in bed.

Todays plan involves ironing, collecting ds this afternoon, wrapping up a present and delivering it, checking the tyre pressure on the car and getting petrol, possibly another matched bet and a roast dinner

10p on the scratches, credit crunch has definitly hit there I don't remember the last time I got a 25p :rotfl:

I was thinking the same thing - 25p from V used to be the norm, now it is something to get very excited about!

I had a poor day, foodwise, on Friday - it would have been my Dad's birthday and I suddenly had this urge to eat crap.....and lots of it......but it did remind me that my emotional issues around food are not resolved, and I have to be more than aware of it. I am thinking that perhaps I will just "expect" those days - I know which ones are likely to cause me a problem, such as anniversaries and birthdays that I now miss - and perhaps point accordingly in the run up so that I can write off that particular day without guilt, giving into my emotions a bit. What do you reckon?
