    Bun,
    It's a great time to be buying a car if you can be mercinary. The car scrappage scheme is coming/ has come to an end. It looks like there's going to be another dip for car retailers. Ideally go in with OH as they give their best bargains to couples and don't like to give them to women at all and towards the end of the month when they have to meet their sales targets (I'm probably telling you what you already know!) :D

    I have two jobs to apply for. Going to do a bit of prep today and fill in tomorrow / Monday. They both have a closing date of next Friday and I'll be working on DIY SOS on Wednesday and Thursday.

    Welcome Sunnylooloo and Dewdrop. Newbies are always welcome, particularly with biscuits :j

    Morning guys and girls,

    'grats to the windfall peep.

    DH is outside mowing lawn as he and a friend plan to spend the afternoon in the garden making crafty projects. I had a lazy shower etc then realised I had an RM survey posting to do so sent him dashing out with it as I was still wet!

    I plan to spend the day in the house discovering the house :D

    Hope you had the girls have a great time Beanie :)
