Am back and have had a good day.
Took 2 of my sons with me...we went to the car part place and they didn't have the part....then went and looked around the shops in that area..had a lovely breakfast ..all locally produced produce was used..onto the ice cream farm...where we had coffee and ice cream and looked at all the animals and bought stuff from the farm shop..they don't charge to look at all the animals and they also have a play barn and the cost is only £4 per child.....JJ will love it....
Then onto another farm shop.....and then back here..went to paint sprayer place to get a price and got a very reasonable one....and then onto main dealers to buy the rear set of lights...the whole repair bill will be under £150..so happy with that...
Then onto bank and have just paid £160 off BMI card and am now under £25k and am nearing £10k on CCs so all positive stuff.

Sounds like you had a great day Taxi. I bet it feels sooooo good seeing those debts getting smaller. I have to get a grip with my overdraft but reading everyone else's journeys is inspiring

It does feel good that they are getting smaller.I'll be glad when they've all gone though.

It's just about 30 mins up the road from here.The play barn is just like planet kaos....and the ice cream is made on the farm with their own organic milk so all good....the juice they sell in the cafe is organic as well..so good for the kids...it was very yummy ..

They both asked if they could come with me and both enjoyed it.
Forgot to add we all had a walk along the nature trail as well.
