NickyBo thats so wierd! I had an ice craving when I was pregnant! Obsessed with anything really cold! All drinks had to have ice in or be very very cold and I went through tonnes of ice lollies! Funnily enough DS loves ice lollies now and can eat loads in a day no matter what the weather is! He even asks for them first thing and would happily eat them at 6am!

Aww Nicky I remember the cravings lol such funny ones, dd is 2 next week so this time last year in a heatwave I was 9 months pregnant, having to sleep with icepacks to cool me down and I remember the ice lolly craving so well, in fact I could tell you which supermarket sold the best roxcket lollies, suprisingly yes there was a big difference, I think we decided asda had the right colour ombination. I also had a weird craving for apple in the last few months, I couldn't eat enough of them. I remember once we went shopping and I smelt something I wanted to eat in the fruit aisle but had no idea what it was, I must have looked crazy sniffing around trying to find my craving - it turned out to be hubby's lynx spray which was some fruity concoction lol.

No harm in eating frozen fruit unless it's a fruit that must be cooked like cooking apples, frozen peas are ok though lol.

Oh I havent downloaded the VO app, is it any good? Do u do surveys through it?

Yes, it is good. You get the odd 25p survey through it - they usually come in batches about once a month. You can track your pending totals on it too.

Well done Elysia on your £50, I've been ignoring my cup of tea (naughty me!). I'll go have a look now I think

Pink - I only filled out that survey because you mentioned it when we had the last survey through. I was telling you to go for it, but I hadn't filled out that survey myself. Thank goodness I did. I've done my survey this morning - I think it only had three questions on.

Nicky - Frozen blackberries should be fine - I love frozen grapes and banana (not at the same time though). With DD1 it was gherkins for about two months and then went onto icecream. During winter it was hard to find, as I bought out all the local shops stock too. What a nightmare. With DD2 I knew I shouldn't eat nuts, but that was my craving, and couldn't help myself. I ate them everyday from about 4 weeks pregnant, until a week before she was due.

Just thought I would let you guys know I heard back about the person who copied. While they are similar, she hasn't directly copied, so not a breach of rules, but they are watching out for other breaches. Boo sucks. I can see the point, but I still think she should get worse.

Anyway, behind me now. I am having a pottering day but had WH b1ng0 playing most of the day and just won 5 gold uns. I've had 11 today, and now at 109 from joining on the 14th of last month, which doesn't seem too bad to me. Alright for just clicking and playing in the background anyway.

Been paid for the PC I did yesterday, so I can claim them out of paypal.

DH is working away till later this evening so I will get some more time later for a bit of pottering.

Well done on the £50 Elysia!

I'm glad you've heard back Michelle, not the greatest news, but hopefully one day she will get caught copying.

I didn't have an cravings whilst pregnant! But I do love a good frozen grape nowadays.

Just redeem £10 from Mys, and almost finished writing a review so that'll be 3/28

Thanks Cornish - Did you see the post where you were chosen to come up with a money making scheme for the next challenge? Anything you like - and don't worry, you've got until Sept to think!

Michelle chose you because, you're a relative newbie, who might have different ideas to the rest of us. We might be stuck in the same old rut.

cornish.chick

Oh no I didn't! I will stick my thinking cap on

Evening all

I had loads of surveys in my inbox this evening but I am so tired I cant remember how many I managed to do lol. I was decorating all day and it was so hot, its done me in. I know I did a few on T tonight from doing the quick polls.

There were quite a few surveys on onepoll but all except one were just for entry into a draw and I didnt qualify for the one that wasnt.

I put the bags on my shop this morning (pics on my blog), was going to have a go at finishing off the other ones I am doing but I was too tired to do them. Waiting for YD to get in from her BF's then I can get to bed.
