When are you hoping to go? Also, how is your hubby getting on? All the best for getting the right combination - soon!

Have you been borrowing sparky's dog, Decluttering? Or sparky himself maybe! How can anyone not hear a 50p drop, glad you found it though, well done!!!

Morning everyboby
5 shiny £2 coins & 2 50p's for the Poland spending fund. My usual £2 into the sealed pot plus about £1.50 odd in change.

Sue the ASBO has been lifted now I'm working all this overtime, I don't get a chance to stalk the kids dropping their change.

Have a safe day everyone and keep saving

Ahh sue-UU its not me thats hard to please its 'himself' He wants to go all inclusive to Majorca or Menorca, through a travel company rather than me do it all myself (no idea why) flights have to be in the day for me and we have to fly between 11th Aug and 14th Aug!! Oh and the reviews have to be a 4* at least on trip advisor (ok that ones me).
I mean thats not very picky at all!! :rotfl:

This whole not being able to find something suitable is worse on him than if id never mentioned going away, its making him more depressed as he had built up his hopes a bit we would go away somewhere (even though I told him NOT to get excited just incase!)
I shall find something!! I refuse to be beaten by thomson and his unhelpful friends

that is a bit of a list jakes-mum. I really hope you find somewhere though. Bah to not helpful travel companies.

glad the ASBO has been lifted Sparky. I work in a residential street and the kids there are terrible. They just don't care. One already has an ASBO due to harrassing us and shouting abuse etc but he just doesn't care. They are badges of honour. They are lucky in one way that we are not allowed to confront them as most of the staff would love to throttle them
