    I switch between the 2 but prefer the fishing one. If I win anything on one of them, I go on Tiki Island and try to get it up to £10.

    My niece's sports day went well. She won the egg and spoon race, and didn't cheat like some of the others did (holding the egg with their thumb :rotfl:). They also did a mum's race. My sister didn't want to run it in case she slipped or fell and harmed the baby. My niece's disappointed face was too much to stand, so old dodgy lungs here ran it with her. It was worth the 5 minute coughing fit to see her face light up when I went over to her :).

    Got another couple of mystery shops, one is on Monday (so 3 on Monday now) and the other is just receiving a brochure and posting it to the MS company.

    Also had a free KFC today, paid for with Luncheon vouchers that my sister and I earned for surveys.

    Going to start cleaning the kitchen at 7pm. Giving myself an hour to do it.

    Thanks Lou.

    Didn't overdo it ;). I took regular breaks. Kitchen all clean now and bathroom floor is also done. I have just finished reading through my mystery shops for tomorrow.

    Plan is to hoover the flat and change the bed tomorrow morning, then go and do one of the MS jobs. Then meet my friend for lunch and do the other 3 afterwards. OH's parents will have to put up with me working in the evening to write them all up.

    One of those days today. Have been feeling mega tired all day. Had to change the bed this morning and hoover the flat. It is all looking pristine now. Stubbed my toe on the hoover which has left a nasty cut on it. Took some time for me to clean that up.

    Then was late to do my MS this morning and couldn't find anywhere to park, so had to leave it and meet my friend for lunch. Then it chucked it down really badly.

    In the end, I got 1 of the 4 MS jobs done. I just couldn't face doing the others today, so did the one that I absolutely had to do as it couldn't be moved back.

    I've now got 5 tomorrow, but will have more time to do them and can do them any time I like (today's was after 2.30pm only). They are all in the same vicinity too.

    I've also got 3 on Monday, including 1 extra that I picked up today. It's for one of the new companies I joined.

    Basket arrived today. It's a bit smaller than I expected, but I guess I don't want it too big, or I will have trouble filling it ;).

    Still tired :(. OH's parents didn't vacate the living room until gone 11pm so I didn't get to sleep until around midnight. Flipping airbed is a nightmare. I woke up so many times during the night. Got 2 more nights of this rubbish :(.

    I miscalculated the mystery shops I had today. I've only got 4, haven't a clue why I thought it was 5. Picked up another one for Monday too.

    Hoping to get them all done this morning so I can write them up this afternoon.

    Tell them they should be sleeping on the airbed, do they know how many vouchers you had to collect for that bed?!

    Hope the mystery shops go ok and that today goes a bit better for you.

    I know, I thought that yesterday when I was changing the sheets on it - a week after I get the bed that I worked so hard for and I am reduced to sleeping on a rubbish airbed :mad:.
