Morning all

I just need 55p on SN to redeem £20. I didnt have any more on Viva so a long way to go on that one. I checked my TCB and think my payment is due on the last day of the month, nearly £40 to come on there. I dont have anything else outstanding on it though after that payment.

I need to get back into DY again as I have not been able to do any for a few days. I have to go up town this morning so I might wait until I get back to do one.

Bunbun2 that looks amazing - I bet it wont/didnt last long once it was put out - I mean people wanting to eat it!

I have got a bit behind with money making with surveys as well. I keep gettng emails from Viva and SN sometimes a couple of times a day then get told they have nothing for me but I finally got a bit of reviewing and rating done on DU.

Still not heard anything from the scanning site so I assume I am not what they are looking for.

That cake looks delicious bunbun! I tried making a packet mix with dd yesterday of butterfly cakes, they rose and sank so they are wingless butterflies. I think it it's time to replace the cooker, it has a broken element

Been out twice already, once to town and tesco (nothing interesting at tesco)I bought myself a top and cardigan, it's a rarity and used capital bonds to pay for most of it. Been to the post office posting ebay bits and bobs and swaps. I have to say swapping my unwanted items for items I really do need or want has been fantastic so much better than ebaying and have cleared most of my junk and have lots of lovely items. Have £70 of Tesco vouchers coming for items I would have donated to charity which with my other vouchers will pay for the headphones hubby want for Christmas. So he is basically sorted.

Koronher it takes months and months to get on S&S it took me 10 months I think, I had completely forgotten about it when they accepted me.

Hope everyone had a good weekend. We spent it watching the Grand prix.

Still struggling with the money making here. Having a few problems with sleeping I seem to wake in the night and can’t get back to sleep, I’m really restless. Come morning I’m really tired. I can’t blame the boys they are sleeping right through at the mo.

Elysia I added a few product suggestions like you said and managed a new review on chow today. Have you managed any yet?

Savvybunny £190 from viva that is fantastic. :shocked:

Karonher - are you on Surv3y He@d? That's where most of us got our invites from and we joined instantly . May be worth signing up. It pays out in $'s and it takes a while to receive the money when you redeem but there are often surveys worth £3 and £4 on there. You redeem at $25 which works out about £15.50.

Have been out with OH again - not spent too much but bought a load of sweeties for Halloween, and little gifts for the Elf card swap on the Magic Elf thread. I've just sorted out my Bl*g, as Jingles has now got a wife. Bless, I'm so excited.

I recieved a cheque off one of my panels, so that was good. Have done a few surveys but nothing much. I'll be glad when OH goes back to work tomorrow, and I can write some reviews - I have about 7 product suggestions waiting for me on DooU.

It's been quiet on here all day - I hope you're all being successful. Not far to go until Christmas now - I think my Bl*g said 3 months, I week and 6 days. :eek:

Afternoon everyone

I didnt get back on here this afternoon, I went up town to pay my cheque in, got a few more bits for YD's college while I was up there. I was just going to leave the town when I spotted a stall selling knitting wool so I went and had a look and they had some aran I wanted to make YD a cardigan for Xmas (she bought me the pattern for a present lol), so I got the wool then came back and made a start catching up on some tv I had recorded over the weekend. I didnt realise the time and just checked and found its gone 5 lol. I am going to stop and have my dinner then I might do a review before I pick up the needles again.

Rufus - Ooh lovely - clever you doing Aran. I couldn't do that to save my life. I can knit babies stuff, and that's about it.

Anyone else on Cup of Tee? - I hope you were all lucky. I just been told I won two £10 Am vouchers. I really hope you were successful too.

Elysia has your elf got a facebook page? I am trying to do one for mine who still hasnt an outfit but I have finally chosen a name Twinkle Starlight!!! G=Facebook wont accept that as a name though? Can I add your elf when I sort my page out?

elysia2003

Legend - Our Elf has got a bl*g. He's not on facebook because I couldn't get it to accept mine either.
