    Ooooooooh a BBQ!!!! Sounds like fun.....I could just eat a Burger right now....LoL....

    I spoke to my Brother tonight who has 5 children ranging from aged 13 to aged 2....and he said it's going to be difficult because they all want to do things and that's going to be expensive....

    How many children do you have hun? What do you plan on doing with them over the Holidays?

    My Regular is still on, bless him.....He's on a roll....chatting away....and hopefully will be on for a long long time....

    I'm starting to wake up....which is great....

    :coffee::coffee: There you go hun, a nice cup of hot chocolate :D

    Now where was i ? Oh yes, i chased the dog back out as she was carrying a baby rabbit, so thats saved a tin of winalot tonight !

    Had dinner and coffee in the garden, so warm and calm here tonight. Took some photos to remind us that it does get sunny here ! My brother just phoned at 10 to see if i wanted to go fishing, am very tempted, but kinda tired, so will save that or another evening. Need to sleep tonight as off to a wedding dance tomorrow night.

    Are you on facebook ? You could see some of my photos on there if you want, i could pm you my link if you want to be friends. Quite understand if you want to preserve your anonymity tho :)
    Its just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:

    Hi Helen, I have two children, both boys. I have booked them in for swimming lessons/football coaching and a bit of sports camp. We are also visiting family who live away (and they will also visit us) and we are off on holiday at the end of August for two weeks. So quite a packed holiday really. I am really looking forward to it though, as this will be the first summer that we have been able to do these things as before I was working solid through the summer.

    It is going to be lovely just to relax and spend time with the family! Cannot wait....

    Aww that's very sweet hun....and I wouldn't mind except that I don't use Facebook...I DO have a Facebook Account but I've never really used it and don't have a clue how to use it either...But I would have loved to see some Photo's...Can you post them on this Thread? I don't know if that's possible...

    So you're surrounded by boys then? Aww bless.....Sounds like they will have a fun Summer Holiday....

    And thank you too....As I said, I DO feel really proud....I've turned it around....Just need to keep at it now....But I WILL keep at it because this feeling is amazing....knowing that I CAN pay for whatever I need to pay for....AND in the next few Weeks I shall try to start saving up for LITTLE treats for the future....which will be lovely....but ONLY once I'm paying for EVERYTHING EVERY WEEK....

    My Regular is still here....We are having a good old natter and putting the world to rights....He is sooooooo lovely....

    I think I'm going to see how this Evening goes....Once my Regular goes to bed I shall see how tired I am and see if the Lines are busy...If they are not busy then I'll do what I did in the early hours of this morning and go to bed for a few hours and start again....but we'll just wait and see....

    My main goal for tonight is to get past £345 (which is what I earned last week)....If I can do that tonight I shall be ecstatic... :D
