You've given me a "Reputation" - LONG- SORRY

Awhhhh - thanks Eels100. THat really means a lot to me. As a single Mum in my 30's I wish I could claim to be super organised, but I just lurch from one day to the next like everybody else.

Goodness knows what would have happened if he'd called around when I was in cleaning mode armed with my vinegar, bicarb and stardrops. He probably would have me down as some strange witch about the brew up a spell - LOL

I am so pleased for you.:j

Iam a stay at home mum but still nearly inspired a riot when DH told the pub about pea and ham soup done in the slow cooker with a ham shank.

Just about every guy there went home and asked OH "Why don't you cook soup?"

Well done from me too :beer:

I'd hate to be his wife though!

*flutterby*

I just got goosebumps all over my body reading your story... keep up the excelent work... Just goeds to show nice things do happen to nice people!

brilliant. That's cheered me up no end. Can't wait til I get the OS vibe in full swing at uni and I end up as the one with the frugal "reputation"! I wait with baited breath!

You know what.... You ARE superwoman! I'm ruddy useless personally - so no-one would nominate ME as "Post of the Month", (Justin would say "Pest of the Month").

WELL DONE!!!!

Well done, I really enjoyed reading your post, it has inspired me to dust off the breadmaker and delight my children with a raisin loaf tomorrow.
Good luck with the business.

What an absolutely wonderful story. It's had an impact on me that I've a good feeling will stay with me for quite some time. I think there's a message in there that deserves the widest audience, and I hope a link to it ends up in Martin's newsletter.

Thanks for making my day

I loved your post so much I've nominated you for Post of the Month. If I didn't know what methodical madness goes on in here I wouldn't have believed it, but I've learned that it's totally possible to have a great, happy, healthy life without spending money you don't have. Keep up the good work, and you deserve every success with the business.

Me too. This post actually bought tears to my eyes, it brightened up what has started off as a s***e kind of day. GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!
