Ooohhh sounds exciting pennywise, might have to have a nosey .

Im waiting for my clubcard vouchers too to book that Lakes wildlife park for a day out. I think ive only got £9 though, so it I convert £5 that will give me £15 towards which is better than nothing.

I love the Lakes animal park, sometimes see vouchers for kids free with paying adult, if i see any of the leaflets i could grab a couple and post them too you if you like.

I'm thinking camelot theme park, but hubbies not keen and wants to go to Lightwater valley, but Tesco don't do vouchers for there so will have to have a look at the Tesco site and see what others there are, don't really want to trail down south as that means paying for a hotel as after doing a day a theme park you are always too cream crackered to drive a long way home.

Right off to finish tea, Rst pork tonight yum yum.

Hello, the weather here is pants and all ideas of spending the afternoon at the seaside have gone out of the window:mad:, so we are spending another day at home at least its free.

Quidco money hit bank account this morning all £1.79 of it, so that has been forwarded on to !!!!!! card.

Nipped to post office to post an ebay parcel at least that got us out of the house.

Nothing today from postie:(, i want my Hovel in the Hills book and matterbox.

All meals today are from stores, was going to treat us to ice creams at the seaside but as we are home we will have a free one from the freezer this afternoon, making pork curry from the left over rst pork for tea tonight having it with rice and naan breads, not sure what pud will be probably fruit.

Washing mountain is increasing again with this wet weather, so i'm not washing until the sun comes out i refuse to use the dryer, whilst i'm off work and able to peg out.

Have a good day PWPS.

Good morning.

Well its not even lunch time and i've managed to spend a fortune, DD is at pony camp for the day so thats just cost me £45, but she loves it and its cheaper than a pony.
Went and picked up DD bike from the bike shop in the local town, she had managed to break the gears:mad:, so that cost me £22.
Put £10 of petrol in car as light came on and petrol station is right next to bike shop.
Bought DS a new school bag off ebay,cost £7 this neutral money though as it was money in paypal from an ebay sale.

Also i've just cleaned car and found £1.25:D.

DW and WM are on and hoping to get washing hung outside it was bright sunshine but is now clouding over:(.

Right off to clean the bathroom:o.

Got my matterbox today...think I'll be taking it on holiday with me and playing after a few drinks.

Hope the weather stays good for you, it was glorious here in the evil south yesterday bit more overcast today which is actually a relief as it's not quite as hot.

HI scuba, my matterbox has also arrived was a little disappointed, they could have thrown a bar of dairymilk in to eat whilst playing game.

Hovel in the Hills has arrived have put it to one side for now and may start it this evening.

Checked ebay and bids are pants 2 bids totalling £1.98 and hardly any watchers ha ho.

Weather has come out nice again off to hang out more washing.

Gas and electric DD has been reduced by £2 a month, suppose its better than nothing.

Have also dug out my Tightwad gazette and started rereading it, thought it might motivate me to rein in again.

Hello from a wet and miserible north west.

Well the day started off good, made leek and potato soup first thing this morning,got lots of surveys done, withdrew a £5 amazon voucher, Tidied kitchen, DW on WM on, then i went to put wet towels in the TD and it died on me, drum isn't turning and quite a smell of burning, it is 10 years old and has never gone wrong and has been used alot, so i have made a decision to try and manage without it i may end up giving in about NOV time when the weather is awful and go and buy another but at the minute i am going to hang thing on airers or on the line when the weather is nice, see how we get on.


So far today has been a NSD and i want to keep it that way.

Have a good day.
