    well I did almost 3 hours studying :j but sometimes I feel like I am not taking it all in!!

    I also did another 123 comps so my total at the moment is 303/1000

    have a to do list for tomorrow but am kid free after 3pm and am going bingo in the evening :)

    have a swing and slide to put on freecycle but not sure whether to dismantle them first or they wont get them out lol or get them to do it if they want them!
    I need to go tip and get rid of so much carp from the garden!

    I know this is money making so sorry for being off topic :o My studying is sort of money making as I am hoping for a better career!

    Pammy, I would definitely get them to dismantle the them, as if they really want them they would be happy to do it, so likely to put off the time wasters that are so common on freecycle!! :O) xx

    Def agree about getting them to dismantle it, esp as they've got to put it back up at their end xx

    Dooyoo voucher came yesterday, bit quicker this time, also had £25 from Student Money Back. Claimed £20 from Mutual Points, they took an age last time to pay though. Did one review yesterday. Joined Woohoo bingo but didnt win anything yet. Havent done any more comps so far just the one day, may be have better chance to get on with some tomorrow when I am not so busy.

    Have a nice weekend xxx

    Well done on your redeems Rufus.

    And well done Pammy on your work in the garden, I've done a bit too, got rid of all the rubbish, I need to get some concrete to fill the gaps in the yard, will do that when the kids are back in school or will have them writing messages in it lol:rotfl: The Sun is shining here again today so might get the kids out doing some jobs when they get back from grandmas this morning make them work before Doctor Who is on tonight;).

    Not had any surveys to do, done a few daily clicks but nothing mounting up yet.

    Take care and have a nice day all
    :D:D:D:D:D

    I'm doing bookkeeping, I did level 1 two years ago but then couldnt carry on with level 2 at the time, they now tell me that I need to do level 1 again which is fine as its at home anyway and I know the basics but its other things that arent sticking in my head!!I will then go on to computerised accounts.

    Never thought about them having to get the swings home, of course they will have to dismantle it!!

    what a lovely week we are having which is great with the kids off for a change! I bet the people that have gone away are loving it.

    It's fine, you just mix it till it's like thick yoghurt. I've done it loads. I'm DIY queen in our house.

    Have had tonnes of surveys the past day or two from Toluna, but nothing added to my balance yet. Still on 27,000.

    Have had a go on the national - £20 cashback on quidco, so If we don't win, at least we've made some - that's if they pay out.
