    Morning all,

    Flying visit, am banning myself from puter today until some work has been done!

    Welcome Twiglet! Hope you can find your nieche. Investigated toys myself a while ago, if thats what you are after, then I can dig out all the old links for you.

    Mambury - if the outlet is like the one on EBay, then it will be for bricks and mortar shops only. Will investigate though, ta!

    NLID - you did make me giggle with your list, Jo said 510 minute activities! lol, you sound just like my OH.

    Elly - have fun at work, fingers crossed you come home to a few more boxes unpacked, curtesy of OH. :D

    My main 5 min reward, I am sad to say, is 5 mins in the kitchen with a cuppa and a cig, while Peppa Pig entertains DDs. Its about all the reward I can squeeze in atm :( Although, I have managed to fit in watching the season finale of Desperate housewives this morning, about the only perk of being up at 6!

    I'm a wiggly worm, I'm a wiggly worm, how do you do, I love you, I'm wiggly worm!

    MandP challenge you to think up at least 2 more things you can do with less than 5 mins. They don't have to be a reward as such but something to change your energy/ relax you. you could even think of ones you can do with the kids. for example switch some music on and do 5 mins bum wiggling. bet you can think of a few more.
    Saucy good luck at the docs today. are you still in touch with the advocacy service?

  • M&P - 1,2 and 5 can be done in 10 minutes (Some women may say 3 can as well!)

    And I have assumed you meant 5 10 minute activities lol!

    Otherwise all 5 can be done in 510 minutes (8 1/2 hours)

    Yesterday was amazing.
    A 45 minute theatre performance/Bus journey/Singing and dancing.
    It was all done on my friends dads old bus froms the 50's/60's

    Went to sleep quite early again, went at 10:30, I'm hoping it stays this way and I don't start sleeping in the day again. Its my friends performance today she is dancing continuously for 19 hours at the train station, there are also a few others there as well. Not doing uni work today. The stuff that I was meant to be doing today was recording voices, but the voices that I want (the interesting ones) are doing performances.

    sounds fantastic green pixie. my DH would love to live on an old bus except he'd need about 5 for all his stuff!!!
    NLID lol about no 3. Maybe not 5 but 10 mins should just about cover it. hahaha

    Oh and I've decided to treat myself to a new dress. Haven't actually spent money on clothes in ages (well apart from easter and that was to buy two of the cheapest tops I could find for work!)

    Figured its time to treat myself , now having a look around on Dotty P's. Don't even know what size I am on there! Its been so long since I bought clothes from here

    Also new week new moneymaking, have to see what I can do today!

    Edit : Why do i sometimes have to put the page break coding in and sometimes not? Its very strange
