Hi all, just back from London and halfway through catching up but have to dash .. just wanted to say:

BIRDIE add me to the dooyoo challenge! I need motivation to save up for kettle and toaster!! I'm on 17,395 at the minute, need about 70,000 for the ones I like! Will catch up tomorrow when I'm back at work

Those people must be really sad if they haven't got anything better to do then grammar check peoples reviews, Lulu! Stuff 'em

Good luck cleaning the room tonight Birdie! The paper-fair-thingy sounds fun too, fingers crossed you stick to your budget. I know how hard it is to at places like that!

Tum-te-tum. Sat about at work waiting to be taken home! Bored, so playing E4 games Trying to think of something to do tonight!

Welcome back Tete, how was your trip?

Thanks for the rates Cinny, you're a star!

Lara, im just going with a dinner and a cake or something i can make myself. Cant afford prezzies

Birdie, i wouldnt be able to stick to a budget, all the prettiest things cost the most! Hence why i could never afford to scrapbook :rotfl:

My Mum's birthday was in Feb so she got a combined present since she'd asked for John Lewis vouchers. I'll be making her a card too. We're at a Christening on Sunday though so I'll not be able to see her!

Tete, I'll add you to the challenge, good luck getting to 70,000 miles!

I really struggle to stick to a budget at fairs too... but I'm going to try my hardest! My downfall is pretty paper; I buy it, I look at it, I think about cutting it up, I decide I can't ruin it and put it back in the box!

Hi all,

Lulu and Tink the extra money on Ciao is the premium fund which they share out amongst all the best reviews I think. Is what makes Ciao worth sticking on. Just checked mine and am ableto withdraw a fiver woo hehe.

I am making my Mum cupcakes and also taking her for lunch on Saturday with my sister.

I did yoga at lunch at work today, starting to feel the pain already.

I am off to Bournemouth tomorrow to do a presentation for my old course on my company and try and encourage people to apply.Am really nervous.If anyone gets a job though I get £250 for each one so need to do a good job.

Good luck for tomorrow Wendz, i'm sure you'll do great! Is that like a refer a friend type thingy? We had that at our work too. How great would that be! Even if you only got one or two people interested, it would be a result!

Have written another review, but pretty sure its rubbish, but the best i can come up with! 3 product suggestions have been approved, so no excuses now!

Hi everyone,

Not been around for a couple of days - just been so busy!

OH got taken to hospital early yesterday morning with breathing difficulties, his chest infection has got even worse and he now has some sort of viral infection. Doctor was horrified at how much he has had to be working while hes had a chest infection. Hes been signed off work for a week - so whats the first thing he did when he got discharged? Went to work!! He only went in for a couple of hours to sort out cover and do his paperwork - but still!!
Anyway hes under strict instructions not to go back, although i know hes been on the phone to them, hes such a workaholic. Lets just see if he actually stays off for the full week.

Not much else to report here other than that!

Hope everyone is ok!

wendz86

Oh no hope he is OK Flower. Make sure he rests lots!

Im trying but OH doesnt really 'do' resting. When i went on my lunchbreak at work today i had three text messages off him all saying the same thing "im bored".
:rotfl:

I hope your OH feels OK soon Flower! Poor thing, I had a feeling he's overwork himself, nobody should be working that much when they're not well!

Good luck for the presentation Wendz and I've got my fingers crossed for lots of people signing up to the course... lots of lovely £££s for you!

After talking about my scrapbook yesterday I remembered that I had some photos of a few pages on my computer, want to see? I made some headway with the spare room last night, I'm regaining my craft space! Now I just need to find the bits I want to get started again... it's all spread out between a set of plastic drawer thingies, a bookcase, 2 big storage baskets, a desk drawer and 3 more boxes! Argh... too much to organise!
