:j good news, Tcb has just confirmed £65 for a life ins policy which had previously tracked at £0. I was not even 100% who the policy was with, but its tracked with confused.com. I think the policy itself was only £15pm so not a bad bit of extra cash, now I will be checking 100 times a day to see of its ready to pay out.

Lunch with friend and her kids was nice, I bought lollies/drinks/pizzas from mr I.,the boys played in the pool.

DH has been paid £30 more than I expected this week as well, not sure if I worked out the bank hol paydays right or not.I'm claiming it as extra though anyway.
I'm not going to op it now though until I've decided whats happening hol wise fro next year.

when you go away for the week can I be the first to offer to house sit
I looked at CP but it is extremely out of my budget :eek:

My AA insurance confirmed on TCB and that was after I had to change it over to new car, thought it wouldnt go through but it did :j I dont imagine it will be paid for a few months though.

Course you can house sit pammy, but don't get your hopes up as its nothing to get excited about here

Glad the tooth is sorted and hope you are feeling a bit better tonight.

Today I have spent a load of money at the diy store, floor tile grout, wood etc. about £80 worth. I though dh was paying but when we got to the till I had to. :eek: So I'm not too happy, I think I may have been a bit keen to op the leftover log cabin/bathroom money as there's still bits and bobs to get. I've also had to put £25 in the car to get us to my aunts on sunday, which is a good hour away, plus chlorine and test strips for the hot tub. (£24.50)


I feel like I'm going in reverse at the moment, I can't make any op's until june now due to buying the bathroom which was not planned.The log cabin is coming on, it looks good, but I can't help feeling like its a bit of a joke, my aunt popped in this morning to look and made a comment (in jest) about it looking like gypsies had moved in

We do live in quite a posh area, and I have a feeling we might be "lowering the tone" 3 kids/2 cats/ a dog/ a hot tub/log cabin. Hmm maybe we are :rotfl:

Oh well, not much I can do about it. We are certainly not going to be moving anytime soon.

hi Newgirly,

We've just got summerhouse and to start with it stuck out like a sore thumb. Now DH has vanished it which has toned down the wood, and the plants have started to grow back around, it has blended in and looks great! Give a few more weeks and it will look like its always been there!

£1400 on tiles alone :eek: were they made of gold??

I would so love to live in a posh part of town in a lovely house where the kids all play lovely outside in the sunshine etc and I can watch the sun setting from my lovely huge conservatory overlooking my lovely big garden that backs onto a field One day people one day

Ooh. I like those tiles.

Pammy - we have the nice garden backing onto a field with horses, and neighbours nextdoor but one getting drunk playing guitar and singing along badly every chance they get spoiling the peace. The dream hopefully includes some peace.

newgirly

Oh, they look lovely !

My tiles were a £9.50 box , for dh to tile the bar (:o and double :o) in the log cabin.
