    Back from the car boot sale. First time I had been to that one and it was really small. We made £32 which isn't bad considering it was quite quiet and we only really charge small amounts for things.

    That will go into the holiday pot!

    Now just got to put everything away again, even though we have sold stuff, it still looks like the same amount as we took out this morning!

    Back from post office and shopping. We've been invited to see new nephew tomorrow, which would take up studying time and also means I need to make a nappy cake in <12 hours :eek: I have all my "ingredients" put by but didn't want to assemble until we were visiting as I felt it was better to store stuff in packets to keep it cleaner and less in the way.

    Hope everyone else is OK :)

    Butti me too!! Put 50p each way so I think I won a tenner. Waiting for account to update.... and I put a free bet on through betfair too so here's hoping I can cash in the winnings although I''m sure there will be some rule that means I cant.

    Do you understand the rules? My friend put a quid on for me at 10/1 so I know that will be £10, but I also put something down here (thought she might not make it back in time).

    I put it on 0.5 Each way. Put a £1 on Don't push it and a £1 on Comply or die (the theme was things I would say!!!). Don't have any idea what I will get from that.

    I put 50p on which I think means I'll get £10 as the odds were 20-1, if I had put a quid on I would have got £20. Not sure about 'both ways' sorry.

    I just put 50p both ways on comply or die, mon mome, don't push it and my will, and a quid on beat the boys just because it was an outsider.

    Hope that helps a bit? x
