    Received those soups to test. I thought they would be little packets, but they are full-sized cans :T. Had one for my lunch and got another 2 still to try.

    Also done another survey and will get sent some stain remover to try :T.

    And the most important thing today? Andy Murray won :beer:.

    Not an NSD today. I topped up my new phone with £5 credit. I didn't even get to Sainsbury's either. Will definitely need to go tomorrow.

    With Vodafone, you get free texts and 100 minutes of calls at the weekend if you top up £5 during the week, so I will wait until the weekend to text everyone my new number to save money.

    No NSD yesterday either. I got some lemonade and frozen pizzas in Sainsbury's which pushed me over the £2.50 that I had on my Nectar card. Never mind. Should be an NSD today.

    Got paid £15.50 from Quidco this morning, which will pay for my mum's phone bill this month. I'm also all set for my hospital appointment on Tuesday, with £7 for parking (hopefully less, but this is the maximum) and £20 for petrol. Hopefully that will be the last appointment for this year.

    It was an NSD yesterday and should be another one today.

    Not done much today. Watched Andy Murray cruise to victory this morning :T.

    Tomorrow night, we are going to see Real Steel :j. Love going to the cinema and love Hugh Jackman :D. I'll report back on it Tuesday morning.

    My eBay items are up to £14.22, but I took one item off, so I'll be happy if I get £20 for the 4 I've left on there. I'm leaving the money in Paypal and using it to buy one of my sister's Christmas presents.

    My eBay items fetched £30 in the end :D. I should be able to get a couple of gifts for my sister with that. I've already found a brand new top to bid on, but it doesn't finish until next week.

    I also received my £50 cheque from New Vista :T.

    Loved going to the cinema last night. I need to make it a more regular thing. The film was actually quite good. A bit like transformers, but with a good plot. And as for Mr Jackman....... *sigh* :iloveyou:.

    So, spent £5 on the cinema and £25 on petrol last night. Will be spending money on the stupid overpriced hospital car park today too (max £7). I'm really dreading going to the hospital. I have a feeling they are a bit needle-happy there and I predict blood tests _pale_.

    Hi Fed up, welcome back :)

    I've got a disabled cinema card, so I can take another person with me for free. It means it only costs us just under £5 each a time (and we go for the VIP seats as my OH is 6ft 4ins tall). I will see if they do cheaper tickets on some days though to see if we can get them even cheaper :D.

    Back from the hospital. Nebulisers are not nice. Inhaling salt water is not nice. Having to do it twice a day for the rest of my life is not nice.

    However, my lungs do feel clearer and if it prolongs my life then it's worth it, so that is the one and only time I will moan about my new nebuliser.

    I will moan about the £4.20 it cost me in the car park, but again that could have been worse.

    Back at the hospital on 25th November to check that there are no side effects to the drugs. Also need to go back in December and January. Slightly annoying, but nothing I can do about it.

    Excuse me for not knowing but what does inhaling salt water do to help?
