Not in my house they don't - we eat them before they reach puberty
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

Having another lazy day today. Have only been at work for one day this week, but do have to do tomorrow... But the weather isnt condusive to a ride so am having a lazy day...again!
Got a parcel to post for ebay on the way to the yard later... Have 3 days of poo picking to do Will probably be frisked all the way round as I have pockets full of treats Its all fine until someone (Gifford) knocks over the barrow when its full and thinks its hilarious :eek:
Have transferred £50 to the spends account today so will use this for any diesl and food requirements. Current account looks OK despite the fact the someone had used my old maestro card fraudently this week.... Got the money back though, but worrying.
Have been thinking about the 11 in 2011 that TPA started....
Home / Simplify :
Do a little housework everyday so shouldnt need a big blitz once a week.
Keep freezer and cupboard inventories so no need to spend nilly nilly.
Declutter the loft and ebay/carboot/charity everything.
Yard / Horses:
Keep my tack/feed room tidy and floor swept!
Try and make horse treats rather than buy them
Clean my tack at least once a month
Get Danny fitted for a new saddle this spring
Money:
Try to make my OP target on the mortgage challenge
Work out a grocery challenge budget and stick to it.
Persuade DansDad we dont need the full HD Sky packagae and can get it cheaper with cable (and get cashback too!)
Increase my ISA as much as possible and transfer it to a better rate
In general be a nicer person as I find myself getting increasingly waspy...
And lay off the baileys...MFW 2011 No. 161 £946.54/£2000 TargetApril 9/15 March 14/15 Feb NSD 15/14
