There is only one BoP , Dr C ! We can't be unfaithful to him However I think Mcculloch jnr is far better looking than Dr.C Plus I have had enough of men in white coats :rotfl:

Let's all do the BoP, yeah! Because the credit is running low, I may not be able to conjure the Yellow thing out again this week, so make the moist of it. And SPARRA, follow Kitikins lead and get your washing dolly on and your bloomers swaying in the wind.

No pleasures as away from Ms Thwack. The sun caught her out this day and she is toasted again.

I'm new on this forum and have searched everywhere for where I feel right posting, so I hope! I've found the right little corner for this. I love the debt free section of the site and their ideas and moneymaking/saving but feel an imposter as a saver, I also don't feel quite right in the saving area as it doesn't seem to have that buzz! So, hope this is the right area for me

My pleasure today was my partner meeting me at the park on the way home and surprising me with a little picnic for dinner. Cheaper then going out and very sweet.

I decided last week to make my own homemade filofax rather then buy one. I'm sewing it together tonight, and just realised the added bonus of being able to make my own designed inserts goes to make a saving chart and colour in squares as I go along.

I'm only a week or so into saving and already over splurged buying some shoes on a whim. I've decided to return them though and pretty proud of that.

Welcome Silver Lining.

Hello Silverlining - I love the sound of that romantic picnic dinner, and congratulations on deciding to return the new shoes, sad though you may be to say goodbye to them.....you sensible thing you!

1. Sunshine

2. Fab fun at Rainbows - and a lovely mum has willingly stepped up to train and take my place as a leader, hoorah! I feel better knowing that my lovely co-leaders will have a new chum

3. Lovely co-Rainbow leader was back with us, on two feet, after breaking her ankle a little while back, so lovely to see her but I hope she didn't overdo things...

4. My Uni offer has just been updated as confirmed, unconditional, DEFINITE etc etc Hoorah!

5. My sheets, no, not my drawers BoP, tsk, tsk! were nice and dry on the line tonight, and yet more washing has gone in. I don't understand how one adult and one child can generate so much!!

6. I'm working through my to-do list quite nicely, although I do keep on finding more and more to put on it!

7. A lovely text from a chum that chirped me up when I was feeling a bit bleugh earlier.

8. DD is in my bed - cuddles ahoy!

9. Work was busy, busy, busy but still fun.

10. My lovely boss told me that DD has a beautiful smile (they met at the school fete on Saturday). I agree, she has!

CCP - yep I'm a meat eater so thanks for that, another recipe to play hide the courgettes! Next on the hit list will be spinach and broad beans!
Mcculloch - I shall look in aldi, thanks for the tip x
HiHo Silver Lining (ok so you have to be of a certain age to get that! Last song at the local disco when I was a lass!) I too have a problem with shoes:p I managed to not buy a lovely cream pair on sunday(I live on a farm they would be silly but sooo pretty!)
1. Load of washing dry thanks to BOP letting out the yellow thing!
2. Potting sage after nine at night listening to the nightingale? I don't know what they sound like but somethings singing its heart out!
3. I saw a woodpecker:D
4. Sold lovely new potatoes..pennies in the pot:D and orders coming in( I do grow good potato:o
5. Cup of tea with bestest buddy and his friend:)
I scoured the forums for veggie recipes, copied all that look hopeful (OH doesn't like spicy!) so I'm off to cooks.com for some more:D
6.:TI LOVE this time of year...its so good to eat what I've grown..warm fuzzy feelings.
Hugs and courgettes to all those who want them x
Who likes plums? Don't spose you're near norfolk as I think I may have a few later in the year!

Frith

Busy day today. I am now 38!

Here are my pleasures:

1) Bigger son had made some bunting and put it up in the living room. Both sons had made me a card.

2) My present came in the post (to myself). I now have a waterproof cover for the ipod so I can take underwater pictures and sons can do their stop motion filming in the swimming pool!

3) Went to Ludlow and had a look round the charity shops. Got a good book for sons and had lunch at the Olive Branch. Got talking to possibly the poshest lady in Britain who was very pleasant but I kept smiling at her accent!

4) Watched Wimbledon but didn't see mum and brother. Enjoyed the Laura Robson match.

5) Went to dad's for tea (and my sister too) and we all had an Indian takeaway then birthday cake.

6) My school friend came round and hasn't long gone. Had some lovely present today including some solar lanterns (already in the garden), a garlic crusher and my brother has made a trellis that he will put up for me some time this week (he's still on the train home from London as I type).

7) We now all have the same cold so I am in bed and might watch Holby City.

Frith

If I remember correctly, happy birthday to CCP tomorrow!

VJsmum - Glad the Procurement thing went well. It's nice to step outside your comfort zone sometimes.

Dundee and Skintos - I hope that you are both ok ?
