    Wow- that is great going. Well done!
    Unfortunately the person I hoped would do our photos a bit cheaper is going in for a hip replacement so we've ended up paying full price! We'll hopefully get decent photos as we're a fairly camera shy unphotogenic bunch!

    It's annoying about the price of a photograoher, but I guess we have to think about the memories it'll give us. I would pay any price to have some lovely ones of me, kids, parents and of course OH.

    That is really great with the wedding money. Bet that takes a lot of the stress away!

    Yes it really helps, I can now get some emergency savings sorted and proper budgets going again.

    I managed a review yesterday Michelle, but went back to read and it had crashed again.

    Grrr so it is. Very frustrating.

    This morning I have started to attempt to declutter the dining room. It really does act as the junk room. I have cleared the sideboard (top of) which makes it look a lot better and filled the recycling bin outside. I've also listed one of DD2's dolls houses in the free paper. She has too many toys and it's Christmas in two weeks :eek:
    Also listed a CD on amazon. Don't think much more will go on Ebay before xmas as I'm worried about the posting especially with all this bad weather. Some amazon items dispatched last week still haven't reached me yet.

    Having a break then back to the tidying.

    I've managed to sort a few bits out today, bought one more xmas pressie, wrapped a few. My amazon ones finally arrived this morning. DD2 keeps playing with the tree we put up this morning and has been annoying me lol.

    Money news,- NSD today apart from the budgeted xmas pressie bought. I also managed to pick up a Self emplyed job so I'm now £36.31 into my savings (on paper) rather than trying to pay everything off! :j:j:j

    Well done on the savings and the decluttering too!
    You must feel great to be making such good progress. You're an inspiration!

    Thanks Jellie. I don't think I'm an inspiration though, just spend far too much time here and spot some of the quick responses to earn some cash sometimes that's all

    It takes more motivation than I generally have though- that is the inspiration!

    Small amazon sale overnight - £4.24 to come my way and rounded down bank acc for 40p.

    Had my hair done this morning, and off to see DD2 in her xmas concert shortly.

    Enjoy the concert. So many have been cancelled with the weather.
