    Holiday funds seem to be ok so far will see how I get on this week :D

    We have 82 days til we go to Salou.......not that I'm counting :rotfl: so if I get £100 saved this week that will be great anything else will be a bonus

    Been a productive day we now have skirting boards in the kitchen :T just waiting for the no more nails to dry and then it's over to me to get them painted which I'm hoping will be tonight :D if not it'll be tomorrow night xx

    My wee Kk is still being sick I'm thinking it's now a reflux thing as he had that as a baby or it's an allergy so will be taking him after playgroup to the doctors as need to get him assessed for his asthma as well xx

    Abba, Just in case you haven't read about this anywhere else - I got a cracking deal with sky but it means holding your nerve:

    If you cancel, they will keep calling and offering 30% off, 40% off then 2 weeks before it runs out they will offer 50% discount. If you can hold off and tell them you still want to cancel, on the day it is cut off, go on the web chat and tell them you've had an offer through for 75% off and account credit (even if you haven't)
    We ended up getting free sky for a year :)

    Hope Kk gets on ok at doctors :)
