    Good Morning All!

    It's been far too early a start for me today, especially after a weekend of late nights and early mornings. Yawn!

    But....I had a fantastic weekend! :) And so did my friend. Bad Neuenahr in Germany = Absolutely, stunningly gorgeous!!! The view from our room was spectacular, the weather was great and the stars were lovely, chatty and funny! :)

    I haven't scanned the photo shoot pics onto FB yet, but will do so soon. Ahhhh Misha Collins.....he smiled at me and I turned into a teenager who was only capable of smiling back and quietly saying 'hi' and 'thank you'! hahahahaha. Same with Mark Pellegrino (also Jacob in Lost) at first, but then we did a 'coffee lounge' outside in the sun with him, chatting for half an hour and then I felt more at ease. lol

    Payday today! Whoop! Whoop! Should arrive in bank around 11.30am (I've already checked and it's not there yet). Get my holiday allowance this month so you can expect some bigger PAD's from me before the end of this week EE! :)

    Still waiting for my tax rebate to arrive though, which is annoying.

    And my friend is transferring 200 GBP over to my UK bank account when she gets home for her half of the hotel, petrol and sat nav/extra driver hire.

    And it's my Mum's Birthday, so had a lovely chat with her already this morning. :)

    And.......I drove in Europe for the first time this weekend! Finally found the courage and then drove for 3 and half hours back from Germany to Holland yesterday! Glad I finally did it!

    Also managed to burn my finger and my badly bruise and cut the left side of my butt yesterday! lol. There was an open drawer I hadn't seen and I bent down to pick the washing off the clothes dryer and WHACK, I hit the corner of the drawer! That bought a few tears to my eyes! lol

    Luckily, I've had far too good a weekend to care! Took my friend into Amsterdam yesterday and she treated me to a tour of Madame Tussauds as a thank you for letting her stay (we did go to the tourist office to get €4 off each for the tickets and avoid queueing! Very MSE! And, that office - literally across the road from Madame Tussauds!). How nice is that?! Oh, have more pics of that to upload too! I also showed her the red light district briefly - didn't stay very long as we were met with 2 'hey, sexy ladies' and one 'wanna be in my movie? My porno movie?'! Which would be funny if it wasn't so indimidating! I don't get those comments when I wander around with the OH!

    Anyway, I have rambled on for faaaarrrrr too long! Have a good day all and I'll be back with some PAD's later! :)

    I thought Euro had offered for last month and I was already doing it so someone mentioned this month to her.

    She has not been on for a while but she did have friends/family over and was going to a convention - a very expensive one so maybe she spent her all her money and had nothing to PAD :rotfl:

    I'm back now! I did overspend a little, but don't worry, it was only for essentials - ie food and drink, so I didn't go overboard and will still have plenty to PAD.

    Also happy to be counter for June! :)

    Howdy folks.

    Loan day so £319.28 to that and £16 Barclays = £335.28 please EE. I hate that loan but need to finish the cards for the psychological boost before I attack that one.

    Have a super day everyone.

    I've been paid! Wahooooooo!!!!!!

    Soooo.....I have put €200 into the savings account. Using oanda's rates today (0.86020), that's a PAD of 172.04 GBP.

    Another 1300 has been sent to the UK. Whoop! Whoop! Just have to wait for them to reach the UK and turn into pounds! :)

    More PAD's to come!
