Hi everyone :wave:

Milly - your smilies are looking good today!

Today my list looks like this:

- HM lunch @ work
- post mobile (finally - was meant to do this last week) so will hopefully get piggypoints in a few weeks.
- put some coins in the jar
- super quick shower (ok, was mainly cos I was running late for work but still counts!)
- print inserts for wedding invites at home using paper my sister had left over from her wedding 5 years ago! Result. See what you can find when you raid your mother's loft!

Will catch up later when I'm not at work...

Today I have

Bought two bags of fruit from market 50p each
Elastic to make necklaces at rainbows only 15p/mtr and its a pretty blue (not my money but very mse)
Crisps from poundland
and sausages from m&s (gluten free and good price)

DS tutor has suggested he has a longer lesson; this will shorten the time he takes to complete the course but it will be another £16 per week, I will have to go away and tweak the budget:o

Dinner from freezer shepherds pie (those who were reading will say what two nights running, but we had stir fry rice yesterday from freezer again)

Need to laminate Rainbows posters and go early to bind feathers together :cool:
Washing to go out on line for afternoon (only thin bits so should dry)

Enjoy the sunshine - well those of you who have it:T

hi all.. running in to say a quick hi,.,., wil l be working overtime late tonight so will be late before i post but missed yesterday so thought i'd have a quick catch up.
Got paid yesterday and my mileage came through - yey - an extra 400 pounds so very happy.
Vey gutted at SW though as was super good all week and only lost 1llb! I got slimmer of the week which was nice but I was hoping for 2.5 to make half a stone! nevermind.
Going to go to the bank and pay big chunk off loan.. Hoping to clear it by June and doing quite well - especially with allt he overtime i'm putting in..

Sunny here - Doglets have broken trhough my fence again ( i blocked up the other hole with wheeley bin) and pooed on next doors garden - the neighbours are soo nice but need to fix it asap!! Either that or chop off the doglets legs !!

See you all later - keep up the good work!!

Fay - I will try to send you some new pics of pup, took some gorgeous ones of him at Xmas. He's a year old next month - can't quite believe it!

Irishmist - how horrible! :mad: Glad you have the computer sorted out now - I'd be lost if I didn't have one for a whole week! A reminder to us all to be careful of meanie viruses!

I-need-to-make-£ - I don't know if the company will change your voucher - but if you don't ask you don't get! Write a letter explaining your circumstances and plead nicely! Good luck

Hi to everyone else! :wave:

Cancelled my AA renewal today. They want £50 this year and I only paid £27 last year (and got £20 cashback).

They put me through to cancellations who immediately said they could do it for £28. I hate companies who send out renewal quotes stating 'if you want to renew, you need not do anything,' but if you want to cancel, you have to ring this premium rate number, go on hold got 5+ mins then justify why you want to cancel!

Still, £50 saved and will join again, or RAC as a new customer and get the cashback again

Apart from that, surveys, clicks, scratchies and food from leftovers today

:dance: No new tyre for me, just a free puncture repair...phew!

:jMy interview went really well, very positive, very relaxed, manager said that my one to one was fine, he is more than happy and thinks I am the right person....now got to wait for the computer to decide if my aptitude test passes! He said he will get back to me shortly and at it coming down to a computer!

Cheery_Daff

Oooh, congratulations Cleosmum! Hope the computer says yes (or at least that the nice manager is wise enough to ignore the computer!)

((((((((Struggling people)))))))))))) Seems to be a few folk having bad days - hope the sunshine made them more bearable.

Haven't popped in for a few days despite promising myself I'd come here every day! Oops. Still, onwards and upwards. Today I have...

* ate tasty breakfast, lunch and tea at home
* had BOGOF hot cross bun from freezer (friend donated, so didn't even buy the first one, lol)
* walked to work and back
* had cup of tea instead of pot in cafe - 25p saved there, woo hoo!
* checked online bank
* transfered £10 diesel money from one account to other
* emailed re potential bit of work which could be £200-£300
* emailed about another potential bit of work which could be £200-£400!
* packed lunch for work tomorrow

And I'm now off to have an early night, which is MSE because, er, um, I'll be well rested in the morning and so will have time for nice shower and proper breakfast and to walk into town rather than getting the bus, and to be cheery and not stressed and therefore not buy unnecessary comfort food and ruin SW eating and therefore have to pay for longer and longer and be grumpy about it.

Does that count as a decent excuse to go to bed??

Night all!
