Poddle - nope not on maternity leave yet, another two weeks left! She is on strict instructions to stay in there a few more weeks hehe. Shouldn't be a hard couple of weeks at work though and I am very lucky and have a few leaving lunches with our contractors and also my team which will be lovely and make it a lot more relaxing.

Aww Wendz that is so exciting! I can't believe it has come around so fast. Did you decide on where to give birth?

Dinah and NIM, how wonderful about the bake sale and the Tesco ingredients connection. I bet you'll make loads of money. Well done :T I too can't believe the scale of the unfolding tragedy and the nuclear element is also very worrying. So sad.

Well my good news is that I passed my exam yesterday - wooooo! The examiner was outstanding and gave me so much to think about and loads of references. Once again I feel so glad I went to Lancaster because the people and the environment is so positive and encouraging.

Birdie, I LOLed at those cross-stitch patterns! Especially notorious S.T.I.T.C.H. Which one are you getting??

Well done on the exam Lara that' great news!

I must have missed the announcement it was a little girl Wendz, that's lovely. Little girls get me gooey in a way little boys don't - I think it's because I can instantly see all the mud and monster trucks to come with little boys!

N.I.M

Trust me, you cant

Dinah93

I didn't mean literally! My mind just sees little boys as these lovable but essentially messy and destructive menaces with a glint in their eye. Little girls are made of spcie and puppy dog tails.

N.I.M

I do, and the tails are boys

Dinah93

Ahhh shush trouble.

No real money news here, we're limping towards payday with nothing really left but should be enough for diesel and we don't need food (I'd love some peppers and leeks but they're not essentials). We've paid off over £500 of debt this month, which is great. At least we're going forwards.

I love that one! I really want this one, I wonder if I show it to the MIL she'll make me one like it, no questions asked?!

Well done on passing your exam Lara! :T
Good news about how much you've paid off this month Dinah, you're doing brilliantly! :T

Hope you get some nice free baking ingredients from Tesco too, it'd be great if they donated lots!

£40 off Tesco, topped up by another £50 of our own money. So very grateful for their help!

My mum sold all her box of cakes before 9.30am today and wants to take more tomorrow (which is good as we have about another 200 at home still!), I've sold about 2/3 of mine - but a few people have said they'd have bought some if they'd known as they have no money today - so I'm going to restock the boxes for tomorrow. I'm reasonably confident we'll have made back more than it cost us!

Well done that's amazing Happy Paddy's day everyone!
