    I've only qualified for one survey this morning and it was a really long one on survey network and I only got 55p. 10p on OP so far.

    DY still playing up.

    But, fantastic news here, I just logged onto chow and i won the current issue competition, so i get a £10 for that. Fab news. I spent ages writing a review for the new issue too which has had good feedback, and a few reviews I added over the weekend went on this morning, so a few E ratings added there too.

    Big smile. It is not quite as good a feeling as getting a crown, but it is pretty good. Strange that, I thought it would feel better seems though i get more money for it, but i guess i like the prestige too. :rotfl:

    Hi all, have been reading but not posting, so will try harder to keep up. I am still doing surveys and s&s and sold on ebay but have now spent all I made on ps2 and games for us all oops. Will make effort to more on this month for the challenge.

    Will go and join SB later :)

    Where are you supposed to put codes on SB? I am being a numpty I think lol.

    Did a couple of surveys this afternoon after I listed some more bits in Turbolister for EB. Had some more LV's from PC, will be saving them up while YD is away so when she comes home I wont have to keep dipping into my money every time she wants to go to McD's.

    There is a white box to copy them into on the top right hand side of the page under your user info.

    You aren't a numpty, a few have said they couldn't spot it. It says near it enter your code here.

    New code for 10 SB's - FourthOfJuly1pOr9o

    Afternoon all - I've been out with OH and DD1 today. It's OH week off. Had to spend more money than saving though, we went under a motorway bridge, and the windscreen got hit by a flying pebble. £10 excess to repair it. GRrrr

    Oh dear Elysia that is a bit bit rubbish.

    Had a quiet day on surveys since this morning. Managed to get a review up on dy inbetween it not working properly. Done some rates on C too.

    B!!!!r it! Just realised I didnt log on to that K site yesterday Elysia so that me out of a reward for this month! Went to the local fire station open day yesterday! Had great fun and caught a lovely bit of sun so all good. I may well be absent over the next week as DS is 3 next Monday and the Pirate Party is on Sunday! So preparations need to get going! Also just been watching the weather and they reckon rain from tomorrow onwards! EEEK!

    Legend - I don't think I signed in either, so you're not alone. I did remember, but it was as I was cooking dinner. Oh well.

    If you don't have time to pop back in, I'll say Happy Birthday to Connor now. Give him a big kiss and hug from us, and have a wonderful party. I'll be hoping the sun shines for you. :)

    Michelle - sorry I posted and ran again - Well done on your reviews hun. You are doing so well. I think when DD is off school, I'm going to have to get in the habit of writing one a day, or something. I need to do better!

    Autoglass/Aviva car ins were fab - I rang about the chip at 3, and it was all mended by half past. Brilliant service.

    legend happy birthday to your little one. I guess like me you will get some time to yourself in September when he goes to nursery. My youngest was 3 in May. I bet he loves his party.

    Elysia thanks, writing is one of my strong points. I can be really disciplined with it when i want to be. One a day is not a lot really. It's all the reading and rating that takes the time. I've copied one from chow to dy today while it was up, and i am planning on having a day with no posting tomorrow on chow as i posted 2 last night, and then 3 suggestions were added this morning too, so it looks like I was churning. Never mind. I thought they might be added at different times like on dy.

    sorry about the chip, that was great service though fixing it that quickly for you. Better than risking needing a whole new window. I chipped mine once on the motorway when something metal fell of a lorry. It was scary as i could see it coming to me, but nothing i could do at speed to avoid it.

    I love the reviewing side - I could happily be a guide and read reviews all day long. That doesn't earn any money though. :(

    Not a lot of surveys out there today, are there? I did a couple for prize draw entries and a £1 NV one. That's my lot. :(
