Pigpen - it's fab isn't it. I got 6 boxes of chocolates that should have been £10 but were reduced to a fiver each and my free hamper.....i'm very happy! Lol. Don't forget quidco. It says it might not track but worth a try at 10% cash back!

ETA - it's tracked but who knows if it will pay out. If it does then that'll be the postage covered! £85 of chocolate for £30!!!

mudbath - thanks. I'm sure that's some more prezzies I can cross off...will do it at work tomorrow - it's good to have something other than work to do at lunchtime! I spoke to DH at lunchtime today and said 'I'm not getting as much done as I'd hoped' and he said 'well get on with it then instead of ordering wine on the internet!'.

I'd like to point out that I do work bl**dy hard and rarely take a proper lunch break!

greenbee - you and I have the same procrastination over expenses!! Mine are easier these days as I only get a few (and work are getting me an oyster to use at work so will be even easier then), but it used to be a nightmare!

I've been quite good about expenses so far - but then my flights and hotels all go on my corporate credit card, so if I don't submit them on time I get late payment charges which I'm liable for. The good news is that they don't appear to wait for receipts before processing them, so I just need to do the stuff that hadn't come through on the credit card when I did the expenses, and had over the receipts to my admin assistant so she can make sure that they are copied/filed/processed...

Supper stuff cleared up. Cake abandoned as I'd forgotten that I needed to take unsalted butter out to soften (it needs buttercreaming before I can ice it). So I think I'll take the laundry and paperwork upstairs, and then have a bath... I haven't had time for one for AGES!!!

The hoovering will just have to wait...

:j:j:j:j I've told my mum about it but she doesn't like ordering online! She'd rather go to the shop for the things she needs. I guess that's why she's in debt!!! I can't wait for mine to arrive....i've got my eye on the continentals!

I'm just going to declutter the dogs bowels (that's the flying bit) then it's bedtime for me!

I have a fantastic black eye already! Great, it'll look soooooo professional for work!

Night all xx
