    OK I'm easily encouraged , I'll join in .

    I am rekindling the skill of crochet that I learnt from my gran as a child , I am a scrapbooker so have lots of contacts who would be nterested in crochet flowers , made a couke last night and I need a smaller crochet hook and some brighter wool oh and to work out how to price them . I have a friend who runs a local online craft shop so I'll see if she woud be interested in stocking them .
    I have also seen a pattern for a fabby crocheted bag but i'm not sure if it would sell so might leave that for a later date :)

    I am starting with a budget of £50 (that i will be earning today giving some surrogacy advice to a couple looking into it - the couple don't pay , the organisation I am with pays me)

    out of that I will take the £10 i spent on wool last week , my £10 ebay fees and we'll see how it goes .

    I should have £19 quidco being paid today so thats a start. does anyone know how long you have to stay with a supplier to get the quidco cashback if you switch utilies ?
    I am journeying to a debt-free life.
    Our estimated debt-free date is January 2040. I'm on a mission to bring that date closer!

    Thnaks , and yes it is and your right not to do anything if your family isn;t complete - My last pregnancy was horrible and I have been advised I risk permanant disability if i have another pregnancy so there are no more in the pipeline for me . thank heavens i already have my 4 and am happy with that :)

    Slightly blah post to start the morning but I just thought I should remind anyone who has to complete a PAYE end of year return that EVERYONE now has to do it online. Even employers with less than 50 employee's.

    Just so no one gets any nasty fines for filing on paper!!
