    KC - I've just seen on F-F's diary that Tolunas now 80,000 to get a voucher. I've only get a few thousand so far as not had a chance to do much on there yet.

    thanks Pippajo - I checked on the toluna thread, and a kind soul came on there to tell me :cool: at least I wasn't going crazy when I couldn't order the voucher :rotfl:

    Have you been getting any lightspeed surveys recently..I haven't had any for a few weeks.

    Lightspeed have been fairly good recently, apart from a tendency to tell me I abandoned a survey part way through and can't go back to it - when I never even started it :eek:

    Hypno, great about the beds - I confess, I had a nap myself today, it was lovely :j very relaxing, for a change.

    Well, Hypno, your son can cook and your daughter can do DIY - what a family! Send them round to my place when you've finished with them!

    Lol......I will just get their diaries out and check quidco for cheap trains.....

    Seriously, though, they are excellent children. I am very proud of them :T:T DS has just cooked us a lovely dinner too :)

    Do DS & DD have ideas on what they want to do yet?

    DD has no idea, she has chosen her A levels but beyond that she doesn't really know.

    DS wants to ski.....and cook.....so I quite see him going for a gap year to run a chalet.......and staying there until he realises he is 28 and needs to get a "proper job" :cool: He is hoping to do hospitality at college......we have a very good hotel school at our local college, and he had a taster day there yesterday which was excellent!

    I had wondered about DS and the chalet idea when I heard about the cooking. Wonder if he'll like the cleaning aspect though, you could give him the opportunity to try some beforehand ;) OK don't look a gift horse in the mouth, you're doing well with the cooking :)

    It's good that there's a good hotel school near, also a possibility of seasonal holiday jobs while at college etc if he's on the course.

    We tried to keep our two's options open as long as possible, and they currently seem happy with their choices and decisions.
