    Yes good luck bargainrzl, you've worked so hard you really deserve to get one of the flats.

    Please don't all shout at me at once but I've caved in and bought one of the tents. It probably won't get used this year (we shall see) but at £25 for a four berth tent with separate bedroom and awning it was too good to miss. Even if the kids only use it for playing in the garden it's still cheap :D

    Hi Shez!:hello: Now get and do some work!!:D

    Moggins, I wouldn't dare shout at someone with streaky legs (or have they evened out now :rotfl: ), anyway your arguments are sound, it's cheap enough if the kids use it in the garden and it won't eat anything. You'll be set for next year won't you?:D

    That's a good point! My quitting smoking money has paid for our future holiday accomodation :D Silkquit works out that I have saved £55 since I quit so I'm allowed to splurge a little :D

    And they are still streaky :(

    Having an office day today to catch up from those lovely sunny skive days Ive enjoyed this week (but I dont sleep on the sunbed TM I brainstorm lots of questions and ideas for new businesses I am working with :shhh: :silenced: :whistle: )


    I have to admit I am waiting on a yeah or ney from a big contract I have pitched for which would see me off the sunbed and back in my suit :eek: and at the moment am playing telephone ping pong with the person so its all a bit nerve racking - its nice to be self employed when the suns out but it doesnt half have its scary moments!:o

    anyway back to it I suppose

    Hello Again

    Welcome Overbudget.

    Plans have completely changed today, got caught on a phone call to a friend that I havent spoken to in a while and it was nice to catch up. Therefore by time finished that was too hot to hoover (sun is now fully out). So have put another load in the wm and have come into my office to really make a dent in my outstanding stuff.

    Meal out tonight has been cancelled as a couple of people ill which is disappointing but at least I will have saved a bit of money and will now do my ironing tonight when its a lot cooler in the kitchen.

    Have also changed meal plan as I will now be at home for dinner so we are now having marinated pork kebabs with onion and mushrooms, onion rice and pitta bread. Think will use the chilli up over the weekend.

    Right gonne start on my in pile.

    sounds like everyone is ok and hugest hugs to those who are having a bad time.
    Things are still mega hectic here, were supposed to be having a new kitchen ceiling fitted today, but the workman is ill and now coming on tuesday next week.Trying to decide wether to paint the walls before or after he's finished.
    I'm still just about on the o/s wagon, the wether helps as I refuse to use the tumblie.
    have a curry in the slow cooker for tea tonight ans pretty much all my daily chores are done, might give the windows a going over.
    Baby ben can now stand on his own for nearly a minute and can climb the stairs faster than me:o :rotfl: he is sat on my lap now attacking the keyboared, so excuse any mistakes.
    Went to fairford air tatoo at the weekend, it was really good. our town has a freebie festival this weekend sponsored by all the local business' so will be loads of freebies about:T
    off to buy a new buggy off ebay.
    hugs
