    What a fun day, I have driven everything from a Peugeot 107 to a Nissan pick up truck and four others inbetween, if money were no object I would def. go for the Honda CRV top of the range, only problem is they have a waiting list until October:rotfl: The Mondeo was too big for me though, what a wopper of a car!

    As far as i'm aware SF has not pinched anything today (that could be because he has been home alone for a few hours though:eek:). He will have a fantastic run over the cricket field later to make up for this.:o

    Still not done finaces, too busy trying to earn some more to boost the coffers back up!

    GG how is the weight loss going? Is your kitchen finished yet (bet it is..stamps feet pah!)

    Cooker is finally going to be fitted tonight and the end does indead look like its in sight, Friday is D day:j

    So far I have kept to my word about not accepting any mystery shops this weekend, although I have been tempted by some:o My 2nd job has come to an end for 4 months so I am looking into doing some weekend work (four hours on a emergency bases) to try and make up for the short fall.

    I started to add up the kitchen cost last night, then decisided to leave it until the weekend! Its the stupid things that add up, the things i didn't think to account for like having the cooker fitted, the skips etc...ah well alls well that ends well..hopefully!

    PS is this sad...i'm really looking forward to going to slimming world next week, it seems like the start of a new era for me, new kitchen new body!!

    Yay to cooking & finished kitchens :j

    I'm done bar dishwasher door & internal shelves in 1 cupboard, hanging curtains in dining area tonight :D. Will add all costs up once final bill in but think 7.5k covers it :eek:. Hope yours isn't too scary :o

    Have lost total of 15lbs :T. 32.5 to go :o. Finding it quite easy (currently eating sugar free jelly with rasperries in it, feel like I'm at a birthday party :D). Good luck when you go :j
