OK my mum has gone off on holiday and sawq her today and she gave me £200...what do I do with it. Have asked her what was it for (she snuck a cheque in my bag) and she said to go and see my sister and if that wasn't possible to use how I liked. So do I pay off some debt or squirrel it away in my savings which aren't making any money but I like to have as a safety net. Or buy something for me or have day out with bea? Suggestions please

Take a week off work....go see your sister for a few days, then come and see me for a few days....:T:T

Morning..up because I hate lying in bed with a streaming cold and I needed some paracetamol. Have decided that I am going to save the money and then def come up to Bunny's in October and see everyone
Was having a nightmare about DD going to school last night, dreamt that I didn't get to take her on her first day as I went to work as normal and forgot...was devastated. Oh dear think the next 4 weeks could be rather long!

Not up to much today, I do need to spend some time at the allotment but depends how I feel and how hot it is...don't have long to get it cleared before they inspect it again

Sally - I am up cos I have a vat inspection tomorrow and I am trying to get the paperwork together for it. As usual I have left things till the last minute and now I have realised that I don't have half the stuff in one place...its all in three different places.

I have cancelled this vat visit three times now....not sure I can get away with a fourth time....

sallyx

ummm yes cancelling again might be pushing it. Are all the things to hand in 3 different places in the house or not? What time tomorrow is it?

sammy115

Its at 11am.....last couple of years at my house, previous year at clients house (client disorganised - bet she doesn't even know she has it) and before that at the previous accountants!!!!

sallyx

ummmm could be tricky then...anyway of blagging and saying you will get remainder of paperwork across to them (once you have found it)

sammy115

vat inspection is in Liverpool....so its a bit of a trek to go tomorrow to be told that they need additional paperwork. I really don't want to cancel it to be honest, cos its hanging over me like an albatross but I don't want to go tomorrow to be told they need to come back again.

But I need to set off early to get there...so if i ring first thing and say will you need this info and they say yes then I will have to cancel and if they say no then its too late to go.....

sallyx

right then go with as much paperwork as you have and be prepared to have to go back..at least you will have done the bulk of it. If you don't have the option really of phoning in the morning you haven't got much choice!

sammy115

thanks Sal - feel a bit like a headless chicken now...

Morning everyone, looks like today will be a total no day as OH is really suffering with his back and apart from that we are as skint as.

Boys Birthdays this week DS2 is 14 tomorrow and DS1 is 16 on Saturday, where do the years go?:(

Feeling really low these last couple of days no reason at all for it so I am a bit cross with myself for being such an ungrateful cow as I really have nothing to moan about.

I might attempt to make a cake for DS2:eek::rotfl:
