glad you had a nice day. I hope you remembered the wine

I have bottles and bottles of homemade plum, elderflower, peach and rhubarb wine just now. DS's mates Nan makes it an dhe brings a bottle every time he visits. Its delish but I rarely drin as I have a liver problem . I'm going to get my friends up some night and treat them to a freebie boozy evening as it has a major punch to it

cheers lovelys,

I have a washer at the other house so have managed to sort washing out and will do so til end of the month.

It has snowed heavens hard here today, its laid on the garden but fortunately not on the roads, praise be.

Had my psych assessment and I am not a lunatic but I do need some help.

Am currently listing ebay and will be doing some surveys while drinking some wine, am going to pop see my mam and dad tomorrow and try and catch up on my ironing. Have been a little remiss of late and I like to make sure its done.

Wish I had someone bringing me bottles of wine. Sounds fabulous!
Shame about your liver me love.

Yes it was a fabulous day and we will be having many more this week.

Kids are monsters when you want to work I find, they create a general madness til you do what they want instead!

however, I have discovered my husband is worryingly good at building things with duplo / lego. he takes requests on what to build next! Ive asked for a ferrari

Sounds like you have had a lvoely few days SKint.

Mr Pinot is very very compeititve on the Lego front, it has to be built to absolute perfection and once built no amount of persuasion will make him pull it apart ! I have to wait until he goes away before going on a mammoth Lego crushing frenzy, its very therapeutic though I must say ! :rotfl:

Haha mine is the same. Boys and their toys.
Another fabulous day, despite going to Aldi. The snow melted and a gorgeous cold but windy and amazingly blue skied day happened.
We cleaned out the garden box and ate some home made scones and flapjack while being rosy cheeked and a bit muddy.

Was lovely. Visited my parents which was nice as always and I am currently listing ebay while nursing a bottle of wine. A further 2.69 repaid to Amex. Not the mad rush of cash repaid I had anticipated but I am spending over 40 pounds a week on prescriptions at the moment, so am hindered a little.

Also need to bear in mind no more tax credits as of next week. So have had to pop a little to one side.

Got a nice big log fire in. Last week I was in a vest top and shorts! Madness!

:eek: @ prescription costs. We dont need to pay for them up here . Before that though I used to buy a prepaid ticket, could you not do that and save some cash?

Skint_but_Optimistic

Its only short term as far as I know. I could be off them next week and out of pocket, dont know what to do for the best. Might be to buy a crystal ball.

Lovely sunny day today, so am going to sort my compost heap out.
Classy bird me.
