    Well, it sounds like you got plenty out of the interview, chev, even though you didn't get the job - keep going, and you will find something!

    Friday :j so that is housekeeping day - my weekly system is working well so far. Off to do scratching and banking. Have a good day everyone x

    £4 won on BB this morning......am grateful for anything! Still waiting for my casino money to reach my bank account, but it is shown as confirmed, so just a matter of time - perhaps it will be there during the day.

    Otherwise, nothing to report.....10p scratches, no surprise money going into or out of my bank accounts......normal sort of day I suppose!

    Morning - had to read DS riot act over money - he will get the message eventually - mind you it would help if the TA would pay him the £1k he is owed of course.

    Off to work in a minute, although i still have to put the washing on the line and have breakfast.

    Have a good one everyone

    Hi KC!

    I've just taken advantage of a Tesco points offer from the weekly newsletter - it is on the home page if anyone wants to look. Order one of 5 DVDs/CDs from Tesco Entertainment, and get 500 clubcard points which equate to £20 in deals.

    so, I have ordered DS a DVD for Christmas that cost £10.95, free postage, and will get £20 of deals in return.

    I have decided I am going to have a bit of a "clubcard deals 2010" - I have currently got £67.50 of vouchers which = £270 of deals.......the aim is to have a fab 2010 with trips to theme parks, meals out etc that we wouldn't normally get to do, all courtesy of Mr T :D

    Edit to add a caveat - obviously, don't just buy one of the 5 DVDs to get the extra clubcard points if you don't actually want the DVD in the first place, just in case the points don't come through for some reason!!

    That sounds good. I'm eating brekkie, can't focus on anything too serious in the meantime, this might be just the job....

    surprise surprise, my KJP cashin from last night has been reversed.......with a lovely email from aforementioned "cindy"......:rolleyes:

    I don't know how much I have to play through to continue, but it is hardly surprising that I got the email.

    Ah well, all good things, and all that :rolleyes:
