    What, when you see someone talking to their car :D.

    2 mystery shops completed. Well, done the shops, just need to find the energy to write up :o.

    I totally had a car patting moment on Friday after a near-miss (lorry driver distracted/momentary snooze)... she handled beautifully and avoided us getting squashed between the central reservation barrier and a 20 foot container lorry.

    It's the singing along to music that cracks me up when I see other drivers really getting into it!

    I am trying to ride my bike more often to stay fit and save money but I find I keep saying to it "oh COME ON car" even though it's not my car :(

    MRN :eek: scary. Glad you're ok.

    Cathy :rotfl:.

    £5 OP Monday from petrol voucher, £32 mystery shopping today. Yup, I'm rocking these OP's :rotfl:.

    Feeling a bit meh at the mo, dk why really, lots of little things, but lovely dinner with MSE chum last night cheered me up :kisses3:.

    Up at stupid o'clock this morning, but Eco 7 put to good use, including tumble drier (with internal light :smileyhea) obviously :).
    Off to be a wifi bandit on the train later and I've free frothy coffee due off my loyalty card :T.

    Happy hump day everyone :j.

    Yep it definitely is a hump day. :D


    Can't wait until once I've finished saving for wedding, so I can start really putting little OPs into Mortgage rather than Wedding fund.

    Have you made a decision yet on your options?

    I have a very, very, very large spot brewing in the middle of my forehead. I won't be around for a while, too ashamed to be seen :o.
