    I'm back! :)

    Holiday was great although quite an experience in ways I wasn't expecting!

    It's cold here though and I don't want to be sat at my desk :(

    No money updates for today. All holiday spends were in budget, so just need to log-in over the weekend after I've paid in my pub wages and see if I have anything I can pay off.

    Ha ha, probably made it sound more interesting than it was!

    It was much harder work than I expected - very narrow paths, and sheer cliffs to get up and down. I thought that with a donkey it would have been more like the trails from my riding holiday a couple of years ago, but it was almost mountain climbing.

    My Mum slipped and hurt her arm so she was out after day 3. Just me, a donkey, a map and a 15 mile hike through the mountains each day!

    Was great though - beautiful weather and scenery, didn't see another person all day, got lost, cried but I did it, so was pleased with myself. I miss the donkey so much now though :o

    Had to disappear on Friday afternoon and take my Mum to A&E to get her arm checked out after her fall on holiday - turns out it was broken :eek: Very impressed that she had a broken arm for a week and didn't complain!

    Bless her, I hope she's okay.

    My OH hurt his foot paintballing a few years ago and carried on walking on it for days. Wasn't until it went black that he thought he better get it checked out, and it was broken. Mind you, he did complain a lot!! :rotfl:

    Thanks Emz, she seems to be. I went round yesterday and made some meals for freezing, grated lots of cheese, chopped bits and pieces up etc. She had to break her right arm!

    Sorry had to laugh at your OH :rotfl: Can just imagine after how you've said he handles man flu!

    :rotfl: I know, he was a nightmare for weeks. It was like nobody on earth had ever broken their foot before!! He still mentions it now sometimes when he feels a twinge in his foot.

    I've just finished my 5th article for Textbroker.

    At the moment I can still view open orders so I'm assuming that my account will be blocked for review once the client has accepted the article? Best not accept any others in between in case I get blocked half way through or something.
