    Sorry but...........:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I am sure not many people saw it and I bet you looked fab in it anyway;)

    And just think, it could have been much worse:eek:;)
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Back from tescos, another £35 gone taking the pot down to £47 :o but fridge and cupboards are full again. Plan for the rest of today involves a bath to make me feel semi-human, ironing, ds coming home at 3 :D and maybe seeing the end of the airshow if the cloud clears.

    Afternoon :) We've had a nice morning at a friends house with mates from school. Now we're just having lunch and then ds can have a rest this afternoon as he is soooo tired and grumpy today :(

    Spends so far = £1.89 on a cake to take to friends; but I also have £8 for the pot from a betting offer :)

    Tigz, ignore the earlier comment, just realised of course you're not free on firday, sorry! :o

    We've been out this afternoon and collected ds pencil case that I ordered from Whsmiths, then delivered a birthday present to a friend. Ds is watching the Snowman now :D while I'm trying to get another qualifying bet sorted.

    Only other spends today were 40p for the car park.

    Morning all :D Today is finally looking like a sunny day again so we're going to make the most of it and get out and about. Not sure what the plan is yet, maybe the forest, maybe the beach. I'm also thinking about swimming later on too as we haven't been at all this holidays and I really do need to do some exercise; the diet has well and truly gone out the window and I will focus on that once back at work, but for now it would be good to start stepping up the exercise again to encourage me a bit :o

    Nothing new in the banking, I may call the csa later to see if he did pay the arrears after all yesterday as he said he would do ....

    Spoke to the csa and he hasn't paid as yet, but they said as he only got paid yesterday we have to give him a few days to pay :cool: They also said that I won't get a payment in September but once they know his new income I will get a payment in October which will include Septembers arrears :cool: We'll wait and see ....

    Ds has gone to mums for a couple of hours, I'm going to have a go at cleaning the windows while he's out :eek: :eek:
