    Morning everyone.

    Starting on returning rates this morning. Still on 2/20 new reviews. I have been pasting across some old ones to c. Not doing to bad on there for me up to £15 this month so pleased with that.

    As for surveys I don't think they like me! I seem to be getting the odd one and that's it!

    Morning all,

    Am going to do a bit of reading and rating today. Am up to 2/15 now since my pledge. Have been screened out of a few surveys already this morning but hopefully some will come up throughout the day.

    Have a good one :D

    You're doing well Rufus. I did about £2 of surveys yesterday. Here and there. Not one so far today. :(

    Good luck everyone for shiny hat day. I've only written the two reviews on DooU. I'm still waiting for my third to be added (In that case I'm at 3/15, although I've redone about a further five). Will post a few more across later. None fit in with the promotion though, so I'd best get writing a few more. ;)

    Stepmum - It's all good practise for the Childminding. I hope they're paying you. :) Have a good day, and I hope the little one is good for you.

    Damn Damn Damn. Oohhhh I'm cross!!!

    I've just been invited to go on a confectionary tasting thing. It lasts two hours ( loads of chocolate YUM) AND I would have got paid £70. I'm away that day. :mad:

    On the plus side. I got a new shiny hat. :)

    I had the same email elysia, I would have applied but it would be 5-6 hours of my day there and back with travel, not easy with a two year old at home :(

    A year or so ago the did an at home trial for the new version iPhone, i think payment was £150 plus you keep the phone and an extra £60 for attending the focus group after. I applied but wasn't successful lol.

    Morning all, had a fab morning with lil lady opening her presents, she is 2 today, but it was so sweet watching her excitement, and then running to each person to give them a kiss and a hug and a thank you for her gift.

    we also went to pick up a blind i reserved int he argos sale, and by accident ( aherm) I went in the next sale, and picked up a few barginas, that were needed, some boxer shorts, and winter hats, and some tops for my eldest, coudl not resiste £3 from £20.

    Lil lady is napping now, and luckily her cold is not too bad, going to have 10 minutes to myself then start on making the food for her party tea.

    Elysia, you can see pics of the birthday cake on my blog, it is my homepage on my profile, I am so pleased with how it came out

    Savvy - Everyone of those things I get sent, I always get accepted on, so I presume I would have again. It's only five miles up the road from me, so It would have been soooo worth it. ;)

    Well done on the other sale Rufus. I'll pop over and rate it in a bit. Got to pick Elysia up in a sec.

    Knit - I hope everyone is having a lovely day. It's your special day too. :) I can't wait to see how the cake turned out.

    Ohh Rufus - did YD like her cake in the end?

    Chel - we missed you hun. Nothing new happening. Plodding on as usual. I can't remember do you write reviews? We are all writing our own target to aim for review-wise until the end of August. We're all doing really well at the moment. Shall we put your name on the list? How many do you want to do?
