    Hey Helen - doing great! Just back from the school run - it is absolutely baking on the streets of London! Really - think it is the hottest day so far. No breeze at all! Hope you are drinking plenty of fluids??

    Don't worry hun, I AM drinking plenty of fluids...especially as I can't open my Window while I'm working because my Window overlooks the Communal Gardens and sometimes there are children in there and i obviously don't want them to be hearing what I'm doing....so I keep my Window shut....

    If you don't mind me asking (and please feel free not to answer) but whereabouts in London are you hun? It IS ridiculous hot right now....and I've got the Fan directly on me but it's STILL hot!!

    I'm nearly up to £20...another 2 and a half hours to go...Then once I come back at 8pm the Pay Rate goes up a little and then up again at 2am...so I can't complain....

    I took a short 10 minute break so I could Call my Grandma....The Party was yesterday but her Birthday was actually today....so I wanted to Chat to her and see if she has had a good day....

    I'm thinking of making Bolegnase for my Evening Meal....I really fancy something spicy and I like making it spicy....But we'll see, I'm not sure I fancy cooking in this Weather....I'll see how I feel....

    Still keeping going....

    my mummy wants to go out for dinner. I just want to curl up and sleep.....

    I'm not that hungry either so i might try something new. That way, if i don't like it it doesn't really matter lol.

    Did you Grandma enjoy her meal and birthday? You should tell her we all wish her Happy Birthday lol

    Aww hun.....Can't you reschedule with your Mum for another Evening? I hope you manage to get some sleep soon....

    Yes, my Grandma really enjoyed the Meal and has had a good Birthday today....And I might well tell her you all wish her a Happy Birthday....not sure what she would make of that :D

    I'm now Aspiring to get to £30 before 7pm....I've got to nearly £21 now....so £30 should be achievable...I hope!! But the main thing is that I've stayed the distance....stayed on the Phones all afternoon...and I'm still going....:T

    Hi Helen, no problem asking where I live. We are in Kew, South West London. A really nice area actually with lots of green space but still pretty close to the centre.

    You are doing fab. So, that would be £92 so far it you make your 7pm target (OK, I know, I shouldn't talk about money just hours worked.....slap on wrist).

    Poor you having to work with windows closed - although of course, I quite understand!!

    Oh Kew is a beautiful part of London.....I actually went to University near there....I went to Roehampton....but that was loooooooooooooong time ago!! :o

    I'm actually aiming right now for £95 before cut-off and I'm currently at £87 in total since Midnight....I would love to think I could get to £100 but that would only happen if someone stays on for the next hour and a half continuously...and that's unlikely...although possible!!

    I think it's okay to talk about Money but knowing that I have no real control over who Calls me so I can't always meet those Targets....but they give me something to think about....

    Yeah, it's annoying not to be able to open the Window....but never mind....I've got the fan going...and I'm nekkid...LoL :rotfl:

    Just hope it cools down tonight....I can't take much more of this!!

    Starting to feel a little tired....but hopefully I'll get refreshed when I have something to eat....Don't worry - I'm still going to carry on no matter how tired I get!!

    So it's been a good Afternoon.....I've earned £30.....Not quite £95 but nearly....and I might get a good Call in the next 20 minutes....so we'll see....

    And then I think I'm going to make Bolegnase....it IS a bit hot for it but I'm really really hungry and I fancy it....So that's what I'm going to make....

    So I'll say Adios for now so I can turn my Computer off so it's got a chance to cool down...and I'll be back Logged In at 8pm for the Night Shift....Just hope it cools down soon!!

    See you all at 8pm xXx
