Morning all
Its a beautiful morning here, no wind, no clouds in the sky and its supposed to be 15.c here
:rotfl:Although I have to go to work :mad::( until 1pm. Then I think we will be heading down to the allotment to get a bit more digging done before the rotorvator tomorrow.
Not much else on, need to also get up into the loft and do some tidying but that will be this evenings job once its dark and the sun isn't tempting me outside!
Hope everyone else has a good day planned

20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month

Youngest cat has left a dead rat on the utility room roof (clear plastic) but it's just out of reach with me standing on a ladder with a broom....don't really want to watch it slowly decay up there....ruddy animal!"Start every day off with a smile and get it over with" - W. C. Field.0 -

Morning everyone! Feeling better this morning, but I'm still going to take it easy, so I'll take my books back to the library and pick up my script from the doc's, but no going to the gym or pushing myself too hard....And it's a gorgeous day here....Still feeling sick, so I think it's time to find out if I can eat...** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **

Morning all, sun is out here too. :j
Had a nasty shock last night though. I managed to lock both my internet & phone banking in March and took me a while to sort out, got my statement yesterday, £72 in charges :eek::( . Apparently I went £5 over my overdraft, which i never do, and they have charged me £5 a day for 11 days! Plus the usual overdraft fees and the monthly charge, I will pay £84.50 for my account in April
So angry at myself.0 -
Lovely day here.
Got a staff meeting at head office this morning so need to set off in a bit - I'm way too early.
Will pop into Tesco on the way back for something for dinner and then I need to catch up on sone Guiding paperwork tonight.
Hope it's nice on Sunday so that I can unpack my new lawnmower.0 -

Can you tape something onto the end of the broom to give you a bit extra reach?But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -

Yeah it is HBOS. I wouldn't mind, but I managed to make some extra money yesterday and felt really hopeful about sorting our situation out, and now I feel down again.0
