Hi everyone
Can I join in please? I have been reading this thread from the start although I have only got about halfway through so far but promise I will catch up
I love reading all your input and I am really keen to have thrifty Christmas so you are really helping - I have signed up to a few of the survey sites although the points are not coming in as quickly as Id like, but Im optomistic that I will get there soon
Thanks, Clare

I've given up on T now, I havent got through to a survey for over 3 weeks now. Had another one on ipsos (soooo closeeee to redeem!) and I got stuck half way through, not able to get to the next question no matter what I selected doh.

Just been for my blood test, I'm thinking strong iron vibes...although I KNOW it will still be really low, oh well. But it was the first time anyone has managed to get blood straight away, I was amazed! although when I said that the man looked at me like I was the biggest freak in the world.

Going to do my comps for the day then go through some surveys, hopefully get through a few!

Nickybo - thats pretty much what the nurse said today, just have paracetemol if I feel really bad. Luckily I feel a bit better today, jut really blocked up! typical I get a cold in this lovely weather, might sit out the garden (well in the shade, I burn in about 5 minutes haha) later and carry on with some knitting. Started the first blanket for the baby (Opart from knitty.com ,found it on ravelry - if anyone is on ravelry on here my name is the same as here if you want to add me!)

Hi Claros - You're most welcome to join in. You're doing really well already, having joined up to some sites. I think the first couple of posts are mostly to up to date, so don't bother with the rest of the thread, it's mostly just us chattering. If you just join in from now, you'll pick it up as you go along.

You might not be able to cover Christmas this year - but next year, you'll definately do it, and every penny you earn is always a help.

Fingers crossed your blood tests come back ok Pablos - those iron tablets are foul

Elysia - I Know! I'm on 3 a day, I'm going to turn into an iron tablet if they make me take more!

Redeemed on Mysurvey this morning! So ticking along nicely! Connor still has cough but he IS going to school today as I am pulling my hair out! Plus its such a lovely day here, finely, that he should be ok! I need to do Sony so if someone could remind me later or tomorrow! I always leave it to last minute and then have to spend ages doing it!!! Got to do a shop in T's today as low on food staples as been too busy looking for toy bargains! lol

Elyssia - I'm having the same problem as Pablo as well - I haven't been able to do a T survey for weeks.

Pinky - Please pm me your email, but I'm not sure if the spreadsheet is still on my comp.

I've had terrible trouble and lost lots of my stuff off my computer. If I can find it, I'll gladly email it you. If I can't, I'll get DD to make a new one, but it might take a few days as she's back at Uni now.

How's bump doing?

I'm trying to get the hang of logging on a bit more regularly but with a full time job and being a lazy pregnant lady I'm being a bit rubbish :rotfl:

I will pm you my email Elysia (I think I know how to do it!) please don't worry if you can't find it though and don't go to any special trouble.

Bump is good thanks, we had our 25 week check at the start of the week and all is good so fc it stays that way

Welcome Claro, I'm new too and really need to get myself organised with all these different sites, surveys etc.

oooo does anyone have a referral link for Chacha, was just about to sign up but if I can help someone out with a referral send it my way....

Pablos - There is no referal for chacha - so just go ahead and sign up. I signed up but need quiet time to do the tests. I think I may wait until next week now.
