  • Hi everyone
    Glad it's Friday :D and a NSD :T
    All back to normal apart from my sleeping but reading the leaflet for my antibiotics it says lack of sleep is a side effect :mad:
    Did my Gran's shopping tonight but mum and dad are taking it to her over the weekend. Just mum and me for tea tonight so we had a chippy! :D

    Only money that has left my account today was towards my VSP :D
    Have a great weekend everyone

  • Oh forgot to say,
    I got my Road tax letter today for my car - When I got it last year I was told it would be £35 a year, The letter today stated £30 :j:j
    That's £5 saved and better in my pocket than the DVLA's :D
