elysia I actually hung my washing out today, if you hadn't mentioned it I would have just stuck it in the tumble drier. it has been out all day and isn't dry but will only have to put it in the drier for a fraction of the time:jsaving for ds2's summer international scout camp - £200

Ignore me - just found info on their FB pageFrom a secret location outside of dooyoo HQ: Helloooo all you lovely dooyooers! Our techies are in fact completely innocent this time. Our internet provider is having a massive service failure, affecting not only us but other big companies, and as such we had no internet all day. We're hoping they can restore service soon, but will keep you posted as/when we learn more0

Thanks Kirsty - that'll be why I can't get on either then.
Bunbun - well done hun on hanging your washing out. Good girl.
I do agree - I use my tumble drier for towels - I do hang them out for a bit to get the worst of the damp out though.
Wow fab totals everyone. They are brilliant - another 8 or nine months to go - imagine the christmas you can have, no having to find money from here and there, no rushing around at the last minute, all organised. We'll be able to sit there and gloat at everyone who's stressed.I :heartpuls M.S.E.Mortgage Free 18/01/10 13 years and 8 months early on a 20 year mortgage!

OOps forgot to say thankyou to Savvy for pointing out the correct link - I put a few extra letters in for luck.
I use Norton and I think it's just my computer slowing up - it's 18 months old now, and used such a lot - I think it's time to start saving for a new one. I didn't get any virus from ebay in the end - like I say I think it's just my comp misbehaving. I did have loads of hacking attempts over the weekend though, but Norton blocked them. It's nice to know it works.I :heartpuls M.S.E.Mortgage Free 18/01/10 13 years and 8 months early on a 20 year mortgage!

Sorry to hear about the Virus esmer, I admit I am paranoid about it too, my computer was scanned and came back clean but there is always that element of doubt isn't there?
Today has been busy, again trying to get these blinking refunds sorted! Disney STILL haven't sorted my refund, NEXT have called to say that they will be refunding me but no refund received yet and ELC are a few sandwiches short of a picnic so given up with them. On the bright side money that was owed from mystery shopping months ago went into my account today, £21.50 upAnd I ordered the Aleksandr Meerkat biography for £1 which arrived today, perfect for younger brother who is mad about meerkats.
5 points short on IPS, argggghhh! Determined to get that redeem this month!
With your fab money making Elysia I'm sure you could afford that new lappy in no time... and afford a brilliant Christmas!
I know what you mean about the crafting Cathy, really fancy getting a sewing machine, I almost have enough in amazon for a decent one, but I think I'm going to have to hold off until we move house, I'm itching to get crafty, must get on and order cupcake making bits so need to searching amazon tommorow I thinkComping wishlist for 2017

Savvy thanks for the correct link, I have signed up to that one as well although not quite sure how its working at the moment lol
Giggles_fairy Sorry to hear your eczema has got worse, I had it head to toe as a baby/child used to be bandaged up every night, its such a horrible thing to have. I first got it on my face a few years ago and find it very hard to manage, there is not a lot the docs can do to be honest, you are not supposed to use the steroid creams on your face but they told me I can use it very sparingly only when it flares up, unfortunately that is every day for me.
These days I have it worst on my face/scalp and hands/arms which is quite annoying really I would rather have it somewhere I can cover up!
Please let me know if you ever find a miracle cure!
I have the asthma and hayfever as well, all 3 come hand and hand apparently
Cakes went well again yesterday I did some lovely pink icing as well this time.
Headache again today so off to bed now, night all x
P.S Just wanted to mention OH received a cheque for 3k for one of his outstanding jobs today although that doesn't solve everything maybe things are going to work out now.Aiming to completely pay off the credit card in 2012!0 -

Hi - just wondered if you'd ever tried 'Dream Cream' from Lush - I've found it excellent for skin conditions such eczema & psoriasis. It's all natural products - very soothing & effective. It's worked very well for a few other people I know also.
The other natural product I've heard is very good for healing is honey - you can use natural or I think there is a medicinal honey available too.0
