    Ok so its 2.15 and still have done very little. So I think I am going to write a massive weekend to do list to get me motivated:

    - All washing and ironing to be up to date and put away.
    - two 30 min sessions on the treadmill
    - complete 6 dooyoo reviews
    - complete my assignment
    - try to fix washer motor on car - possible fuse gone
    - tidy playroom
    - check online banking and update spreadsheet
    - sort insurance claim for car seats ready for posting
    - list at list 30 bits on Ebay
    - sort and photograph two more crates of stock from garage
    - take rubbish bags to tip
    - small food shop - with list and within budget
    - check online for gas/electric and water bills.

    That's a mighty list there Doodle - why does everyone always seem to aim to list 30 items on eBay? What's wrong with 10? :D

    I am having a somewhat pants day, as my Paypal account was hacked and someone's tried to pay themselves £850 I don't have :(

    Haven't had any reply from them yet - apparently it takes them 24-72 hours just to respond to an email and the report I've raised could take up to 10 days to be completed.. They don't publish contact numbers on their site - very unprofessional.
