Haha the shoe's on the other foot - Birdie telling Dinah off for a change! Both were £5.99 in the Middlesbrough branch, some kind of Mother's Day promo I think.

I'm so tired, lemon cake making was a total farce last night! We'd made it once before and it was amazing, but then of course as soon as you want to make one for a birthday cake it all goes wrong. Or rather the tin we used was too big and it came out a bit flat, so we started all over again, which means we'll be eating the flat one ourselves tonight - yum! Then OH went and tripped on the steps going into work and it's all gone a bit squashed anyway!

Been checking my money, got a fair bit to last me but payday is still two weeks awat so don't want to get complacent. Been doing some sums, ; if I put that £38 worth of change into the bank, and move over the £23 I have in my 'loose change' pot, I'll have £295 in the MOF, can easily make that up to £300, which isn't bad for a month's savings I don't think

Want to try and do two reviews today, and move two over to Ciao. Work is so busy at the moment though

Oh woe. I promised myself I wouldn't keep checking the cottage but I totally have and now it says 'Let Agreed' Bit of a downer for the start of the weekend!

Everything happens for a reason hon. One in the right price range will come along soon.

Sorry to hear about the cottage Tete, but Dinah's right

You've done really well on your MOF! :j

What do you think of the Gordon Pub Food book? I've got it and think it's a bit rubbish. I have a whole list of books I want at the moment.

Hope the flat lemon cake was yum!

Sorry to hear about the cottage. Same thing happened to the one we liked but we have found a couple we are going to view this week.

Hope you had a good weekend.

Sorry to hear about the cottage Tete. It might be for the best and you might find a nicer one for less money

Doesn't feel like it at the mo, there doesn't seem to be much out there. I was feeling OK about not going for a few months but then when moving really soon became a possibility I got excited and now the thought of staying with Dad til June or July makes me want to bang my head off a brick wall until I lose consciousness. I want out!
