Will catch up with you lovely lot later Just had to pop down where i was up to with everything so i don't lose track :cool:

Do hope you are all well - jwil i'll 'stop by' later to see how far behind i am on the £300 challenge - remaining parcels should be about £8 with the use of a couple of stamps so that'll be £80 profit and then the £10 compo money :T so not too shabby a start.

I'm hoping to get to a couple of carboots this weekend and we have been invited to a few parties over the coming months one of which is this weekend. They will be good fun to go but all will cost money *gulp* as they are meals out, rooms hired type parties. Maybe i should just step away from the cocktails ? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Tried to sort out gifts this morning but will have to do it another time.

Managed to get screened out of all but 1 survey - typical.

Never! *Licks lips*

Enjoy the parties while you can...you have suffered for long enough!

I'm glad your holiday went well, too. Good things come to those who wait, and by now you must be quite the expert in deferred gratification!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Pickle! I know i lurve cocktails and i do go out so rarely that i like to have a nice time and drink and eat what i want when i do now rather than just ordering the cheapest item and drinking water all night
