    Evening everyone
    Hunt Down £100 - £30 to add to my total please = £38! Transferred the money from my Paypal account that I was going to spend on who knows what. Now it's safely in my savings account thanks to this mini challenge. Woohoo! If I can get Ikea to take these blinds back on Saturday, I may actually reach my £100 goal.

    I've even considered taking a couple of mystery shopping jobs on again this week to help the mini challenge, but not taken the plunge yet. Did lots and lots before I went on holiday last May to help my spending money fund, and got thoroughly sick of doing them, so not sure I want to start it again. But I suppose money is money!!

    Ooh lemon meringues are calling me from the kitchen. "Joooooooo, come and eat meeeee". I can't resist. <MUST EAT MERINGUES>

    Back soon ;)

    I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy.

    Thanks again Toots. Went to find that link, then got up, couldn't remember what I was doing but knew I was looking for something and tripped over the computer chair. Got a sore head now, lol.

    Hi Nixi :)
    Em, I'm currently on a course to become a forensic psychologist, but I've been offered a place on a veterinary course in Spain. I haven't decided yet...books would be good, though. PM me prices? Thank you :)

    No problem Saucy. How long was your course and have you nearly finished it? Was that the one you were going to do distance on? Would be a pity not to finish what you've started. A friend of mine did forensic psychology in Belgium, found it difficult to get the job she wanted afterwards though unfortunately. Have you looked in to the vet course in Spain? I ask only because I presume it would be in Spanish??? :eek:

    I tend to leave a bit of money in my Paypal account to cover any bits and pieces I buy from ebay, but as I'm trying not to spend money on worthless things, I decided to use it for the challenge.

    Sorry, the meringues wouldn't let me leave them alone in the fridge, so I just HAD to eat them. Yummy!

    Hope DD had a great time at Alton Towers Toots, despite her reservations!

    I'm off to bed with my very full tummy now. Night all

    Oh, before I go, just thought I'd mention that Pinecone are asking for people to do surveys again - I have an email that I can send to any Dribblers who want to join, unless you all joined already :p

    Off to docs in a min with DS - nothing too serious but not happy to leave him all night without checking him out. prob just a throat infection but finding it har even to swallow saliva and can only open mouth a cm or so without gagging and starts to retch if he talks due to the pain. also making kind of chewy swallowy noises in one side of his mouth all the time and says he feels like its not phlegm but part of his body.
    not really hapy to leave him all night when he is struggling to swallow his own spit.
    however he is not as hot as the previous 2 days. bizarre!
    will update later.
    hope picking up DD goes ok Toots.
