Been to drama and been on various buses for about 5 hours :eek:
I bought 2 scratchards and won a fiver, so £3 profit from that will be going into the mortgage pot. I took £20 cash out this morning and its all gone already, £5.60 on bus tickets, then various bits and pieces, birthday cards, snacks and suddenly its disappeared :cool:

Back home in the warm now, staying put for the rest of the day

I'm sorry but it's far tooooo collllddddd to be on the buses for that length of time. You are an exceptionally good mum.

Luckily lots of it was on a very new warm bus, and we got the front seats at the top so went the whole route and back The bus driver was most amused, I slept lots of it and ds had a whale of a time

Been scouting round the flat for bits to ebay and so far have only come up with 5 bits and they certainly won't earn me my fortune Need to think a bit harder on this one, am running out of things to sell ....

i have to find some ebay bits too going to go scouting myself later when little one is in bed

Morning all, well not much was achieved yesterday afternoon I'm afraid, just lots of chilling out. Todays plan doesn't involve a huge amount of stuff, but will make a list anyway so I know what must be done;

• Baths
• Order food shopping online
• Ds homework
• Deliver friends birthday present
• Go to mum / dads
• 10 items on ebay
• Ironing (only got about 10 items to do)

Thats about it, having half an hour or so in bed with the laptop first though No snow here today which is disappointing but at least means we can get out and about to do stuff.

Food shopping order is done and all surveys from my inbox are done, hot water is on for baths, time to get up

Forgot, I still need to take stuff back to Next today too. I need petrol but will only put a tenner in today as I should get a 10p off per litre voucher with my shopping tomorrow

Hmm, not so successful; we went to the shops to return the stuff, I thought it was 28 days but it actually says on the delivery note that its now 8 days to return stuff :cool: So we turned round and came back, put £10 of petrol in the car and popped round to friends house with her present, I checked yesterday if she'd be in and she said she'd be there all day today, but she wasn't in. So all in all a complete waste of time and petrol

So the return items are going on ebay instead, they were all sale items so hopefully can get at least what they cost me, then that will be used to pay off my Next account. At least I've now got enough bits to get on ebay :cool:
