Morning all

Its really dark and wet here this morning, typical as I have to go out today. Got to pop to ExMil's with her present and card. Also I realised last night that I hadnt got a present for my Niece's two step children. I dont really know them that well, only seen them a couple of times but better get them something, some sweets will do. The others all have mugs with their names on filled with choc coins.

I am just off to check C and get another review on there. I havent got any new surveys to do this morning, I am quite glad actually as I was late getting up and need to get myself sorted out quicker this morning. Be back later xx

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUNBUN XX

Legend - Lol. At first I thought it was him, and then like you say, the lips didn't move when the sound did. (ifyswim). Bless - He's a superstar!!!

Mission accomplished - I was at Boots at 8.29 and the opened the door at half past. Four people in front of me, and nearly all of them bought four of the S&G sets each. I got one for my sister's birthday, and DD's one which she gave me the money to buy. Chuffed now. Just need to get some bits and pieces and fresh stuff later in the week.

Chow is at £53 - and I know I should write more reviews but I'm flagging now - can someone give me a kick up the bum please?

Chel - yep pm me your email addy. It's for everyone but I don't know how to link it to the first post of the new thread, so I'll have to email it everyone. You'll just have it early that's all. You can start filling it in.

Nope - not bought anything else. The soap and glory set is for my sisters birthday in June. I'm always really organised. She's done now - it's her 40th.

Just an hour's worth of wrapping to do now - and yes I'm so excited. I'm worse than the kids.

Hi all,

Elysia I have pm for the speadsheet cheers hun.

I am totally flagging now, managing 2 reviews per day at the minute but would like to have a really good push on my next days off and get the most from this - already up to £56 so doing well just want as much as I can before it goes quiet after xmas.

Am not managing to get any surveys done and little lady is full of cold and teething to boot so we are not having much fun with her.

I have one present to wrap, have to post a couple of cards and have 3 hampers still to do but am hoping to get that done tomoro after work as my eldest is staying at her grandads. Fell a bit down cause I dropped her at school this morning but i'm working tonight so won't see her tonight, have to drop her at her aunties at crack of dawn tomoro for me to go to work so will get the ten min journey with her and then probably won't see her again til monday - hate not being with my children.

We have had 2 minutes of snow here - followed by a load of rain and now the sun is trying to get out.

Hope everyone is doing well, Elysia get some more reviews written we only have 8 days for the double rates!!!

elysia2003

We've had about five snowflakes so far. Yippee - it can snow all it likes now, I'm not going anywhere.

Thanks Emma - that was just what I needed. Just added another review. Trying to do another one now before DD comes home - she's at her friends for a couple of hours.

Does anyone else want the new spreadsheet - if you do, can you pm me your email addy please? Don't worry -I'll delete them asap, I'm funny about security like that.
