    Well a successsful day the mum signed up with me her little boy starts the day we get back from holiday :eek: I'm so relieved still have a few days available so will advertise them and see if they suit anyone if not I'll be ok :cool:

    Spent £16 on toiletries for Abbie as she's away to army camp the day we arrive back from Florida :eek: poor girl will be shattered

    Nipped to lidl to get a few bits to tide us over the next few days spent £20 in there

    Managed to get rid of two more avon orders :T only two to go but it's my neighbours so I've to deliver them tomorrow morning :T

    Had a cracker of a migraine today it's not shifting hoping a early night will help xx

    Still to print my travel insurance off in fact I'll do this after I've been on means another thing off my tick list xx

    Hope everyone is well xx
