I'd forgot it was Wednesday, so thanks for the viva tip.

Been house cleaning as my old housemate from uni is coming to visit tomorrow, and doing all the washing, while the kids have trashed behind me. Truly exhausting.

I did manage to write a new one for DY today, and it was fairly good, so now at 35/45 and I know what I am going to write about for my short and sweet entry. Hope I can do it in so few words as I am not always conscise.

Best remember to check viva and my emails too as I've done no surveys so far.

I did another review too. 23/25 now. Thanks Bunbun I got £1 off Viva.

Have been out this afternoon and got sunburnt taking DD2 to the park. It was fab at Coventry where I went, but it was cold and cloudy at home. I worked that well. We had a great time and only spent £1.80.

This touchpad thing is doing my head in - did you manage to get one yet Legend?

Another review done, plus it was level 1 so I wrote it for the short and sweet comp. 24/25 done. I was tempted to push for 30, but I'll just do my best, I'm not promising. I have about five reviews to transfer over to Chow still, so I think I need to have a day on there if I can tomorrow. It's OH day off though, and he's given me a list of things we have to do.

Off to bed - see you all tomorrow.

Morning, weather is rubbish here! Won't be going out in that!

Review 16/20 on dy.

You have done really well elysia. And michelle 35 reviews so far how do you do it! I have really enjoyed writing about my hols but you don't get much back for those reviews, still I have enjoyed it

Thanks for the tip off on viva bunbun I managed a pound last night.

Hope everyone has a good day. I have visitors round later. My baby will be 2 on Saturday, how time flys.

Up late again Elysia? You need some sleep hon.

Says me. Up till about midnight, and then I am back at it already this morning.

Similarly managed £1 on viva yesterday, and due a payment from them today.

I also wrote an extra level 1 review yesterday for the short and sweet review, so I have done that now. Elysia don't forget to email them with a link to it to let them know you want to enter.

So that is 36/45 done, and a balance of £37 which is not bad to say I've had time off this month. I have no idea how I force myself to do it Claire. I do get fed up at times, but just keep thinking £££. I am not sure I can do another 9 new ones in the next few days before month end. I have 3 product suggestions added though, and another 5 i thought of doing while away so you never know eh? Just keep putting one foot in front of the other.

:eek: How did you know? :rotfl:Could it be that I posted a review this morning at 3am? Do you know what I did? I was just logging off, and I thought I'd look down the new review list for inpiration on what to write for my final review, and there was a new one added, about Morocco. Like Claire says, they don't pay a lot do they? 10p. :mad: I only wanted to start it, so it was a surprise when I'd finished. I thought I might as well publish it now. :cool:. 3am, and then I couldn't sleep. OH was up at 8 banging around, but I refused to get up until 9.30.

Claire - they grow up too quickly don't they? You have a lovely day with your visitors. See you in a bit.

Legend - did you dream about that Touchpad? I've even got my dad on the lookout for me now.

Viva payment in, and I just claimed $50 from GTM too. That was one on my list to get to payout this month, so I am well pleased with that.

Morning all, been ploughing through the surveys this morning, £4 on viva so far, almost at the 6th redeem of the month on there, not bad for very little effort . A good tip is to check surveys in the morning and at night as they update the surveys during the middle of the day you can catch yesterdays overspill in the mornings too.
