Well stepmum what are you like! You left Bingo without picking a pal! Doh! CM was like hello stepmum? and you just left! You do make me giggle!

Legend what does "picking a pal" mean? Didn't see you on bingo tonight, which room were you in?

Had a couple of nice wins tonight, a line and a fh which gained me some nice points and also a £5 voucher for another bingo site which I will use and leave once spent (if no win of course!) Was in Cinder's Palace.

Think I have ruffled a few feathers on the sun holiday's thread. There is a list going for the online reference numbers to enable you to book online rather than collect the vouchers and someone had posted that they had a spare code - rather than contacting the person at number 1, someone else had PM'd them and taken their name off the list further down. I think that is downright wrong and impolite! And I made it known :mad:

Managed to buy OH birthday presents today, had already got a golf jumper from TK before Christmas and he wanted some new golf shoes which I have really struggled to get, but found some on ebay. Have saved about £50 on the rrp of them so am quite happy, and they should be here in good time too!
Also sold another couple of items today, so my £50 is creeping up - have already spent it tho, but at least am money neutral!

Back at work tomorrow, got to collect my bonus ball winnings for 2 separate weeks, another £20 going in the pot!:T

zangels - the sun tokens come out saturday, the daily mail started yesterday. Also if you pop into mcdonalds, sainsburys or other coffee shop, they`ll let you have the tokens out of their newspapers for free. Once you go on one holiday they send you offers to go next time, with a couple of tokens to get you started and you`ll be able to book on website:D.

esmer - hope you get well soon:o

clarelulu - thank you for your kind comments:)

mum2one - sign up for travelzoos newsletter, they send you 20 best travel deals every week and prague usually on at least one a month for £99. I used them a few times for various destinations.

elysia - i`m ok , was just sounding off, i get annoyed at accidents, you be pleased to know I had my 3rd, OH was putting xmas decorations in roof space in garage and of all the boxes he dropped, he dropped the china one...it contained all the xmas ornaments and plates, dishes. I shouldnt be pleased I know but it gives me an excuse to get some more and perhaps the giraffe wont look so bad, because he doesnt know its coming.......mmm perhaps i could do with another one...

I`m putting an idiots guide to vista if anyone wants one. Its a step by step guide to getting the best deals, its lengthy but worth it....just PM me;)

Iv looked at sun paper and cant find any mention of the tokens is it sat 8 they start? Looked on web site aswell but cant see a start date?

Hi All,
First hope u feel better soon Esmer,,its a horrible virus, feel the same but a little better today.

I have been very drained/ill/busy since sat/ My neice (20) was hard work,she went home at lunchtime today,she is feeling much better and I am glad to have her back washing/ eating/happier with the world and motivated but left me drained of all energy! She did nothing whilst here so I suggested she wash up this morning as I left for work.!!She was still in bed when I returned at lunchtime,but got up and washed up then.

My youngest was up from 12.45 till 5 am this morning, he had a raging temp and felt really ill, I woke dh at 5 as I couldnt keep my eyes open anymore! had an hour and half kip then got up and took dd to school.
Went to work for bit this morning so am really tired now. My youngest is fine now! hmm
I just gotta do tea and then go to slimming world then am doing nothing else tonight!!
This will be the first nite we havent had a relation staying since 21 dec. Glad to be back to normal with work and school. My eldest doesnt go back to school till mon 10th!

I have managed to list items on ebay turbo lister ready to put onto ebay,,may stick some more on there if have any energy later!
Had my first shop in sains yesterday and saved £2.38 in discounts, love this idea and will put it into my building society acct that has £1 in so far !!
Bought some cards and tags in sains,29p for 8 tags & 89p for 15 cards plus a box of 30 for 74p,,also bought a 'shoot' football sticker book for youngest, for £1.50 will keep it for his bday in feb.

Opened and counted my old sealed pot. Split coins and made a new pot just for this challenge. I put all 20p's & 10p's and above into my other pot on different challenge and kept 5p's 2p's & 1p's for this challenge ;-) I have £15 in 5p's 2p's an 1ps so am really pleased with a bit of a head start.
Once I have had a decent sleep and normal routine I will feel better and be able to get back to bp and surveys.
Thanks to all who post and moderate, this is a lovely friendly thread.

Welldone kirsty on managing to get organised even with neice and ill people around:T
