    Chucked it in the calculator and I need another £10 to get rid of March 2023but only £1 more to have met my 2009 target of reducing the mortgage to £42k :j :j :j

    So today's bingo win will take you to your 2009 target :T

    Well done DS.... :T:T:T:T:T that's fab news.Very chuffed for you xx

    My little angel DD had lunch today at the top table at school which is a reward for good manners, so proud mummy moment too, but then she's been a monster for me after school, her attitiude since starting school stinks!! We have meltdown most evenings and tonight she's gone to bed without a story or cuddles as she hit me because I told her off for climbing up the TV to turn it off.

    I just don't know what to do :o

    Well I've only just managed to reclaim the laptop from ds, we went to mum and dads after school to look after dad as mum had to go out. he wasn't too bad tonight, then we got back about 7ish. Ds has discovered a game clled moshimonsters, some online virtual pet thing, and hogged the laptop for ages :rolleyes: Finally I got him to bed and only now have I managed to get on here :o

    Well done Tigz for dd's top table treat, but *hugs* about the meltdowns, I think its just a starting school thing and finding some confidence but I know how horrible it can be :o:o

    Ds also got moved up another book band level today :j, I think its a bit overdue tbh but am pleased though :D

    Today I spent £4.15 on lunch as I forgot to take mine with me, but other than that no spends today.

    Thanks Hypno, I'd managed to not remember about that £1 taking me to target, so I am celebrating with one of the tins of mint chocs I bought in Asda yesterday :o:o:D

    Morning :D Another £11.02 from bingobritain this morning which means March 2023 is no longer on my mortgage chart, only took 4 days to get rid of that month, woohoo, if only they could all go that quickly :D

    Not too sure of todays plan yet, it will involve a mystery shop, a food shop, a matched bet or two and x-factor, but other that that I'm not too sure what else it might involve ;)

    Thank you Hypno, think it will slow down now until the new year though, xmas always gets in the way of it :o

    £6.50 from a matched bet I just placed, so that will help to get my signature nearer to the £3k mark :D
