    Have done clicks for tonight, no tarot and naughty me had sausages from the chippy on the way home (must think of the waist and the cost!) it did cheer me up though and now all I can smell is vinegar! :p

    Was sorting out OH's packed lunch whilst he made dinner (he's feeling REALLY bad about saturday), and what I'd bought SS had scoffed the lot and then put the wrappers in the bin outside, meaning he KNEW he shouldn't have had them and thought if he put the wrappers in the bin outside he wouldn't get caught. ....Nope, OH is going to have a word with him in the morning when he sees him.

    OH also got a fright watching Superscrimpers (no, not the lady in the orange hat), about the cost of running a car. He's now realising how lucky he is I run him to work and have to make a special journey for it.

    I'm still trying to use up all my excess toiletries and am working my way through some of my freebies (anyone like teal nail varnish? i have 4..... not sure why 4 but there you go, maybe they're breeding....lol :rotfl:). Have car insurance coming out in a few days, once thats paid I will see what I have left.

    Work :(, I may have to work this weekend, yes it means I'll get paid for it .....BUT....it means I nor my Mum or Gran can go to the craft fair (they wouldn't go without me).... I'm really hoping that we can get everything finished before the weekend as even though the money would be good I am really looking forward to the craft fair with my Mum and Gran.

    Morning All, was listening to radio on way into work and they were talking about ghost stories. What a subject for first thing in the morning!

    £1.93 just paid to 'Tax'. Totals updated.

    hi uni, the concert was great, lots of tidly poms performing as well as the 'professional' ones.

    hope you don't have to work at the weekend even if it was paid. If you have to can you not negotiate on the actual day you work or the times so that you can still go to the craft fair?

    unfortunately the craft fair is in one direction and work the other LT. I would have to choose :(, well its not really a choice if people need to work I have to work I get no choice about it.

    On a brighter note, am going to resurrect my hamper blog and upload all my photos.

    I need to get my blog in order Keiss, put a post on their earlier on how to do easter eggs for people that can't or won't eat chocolate. I hate book-keeping too!

    that's a shame that you have to work at the weekend, it officially sucks.

    i'm just going to say quietly i like book keeping - probably a good thing given my profession. if i lived closer then i'd offer to help you both.

    wish you did live closer LT. Meant to say guess what I saw that I thought you'd love? Red mugs (well a cross between a mug and a cup, and had saucers with them but guess you could use them without), but chunky art deco styling, plain colour. They were really nice.
