    1600 points off a U Gov £50 payout - have been zealous this time and done every blinkin survey - payout it coming round a lot quicker this time ;) And £4.65 off a £20 payout from Your S8y P*ys :) - piddling amounts for each survey but there are quite a few. So maybe have a payout end of October/ November on both?? Here's hoping :)

    New Wm arriving today - OH did try to fix old one but beyond repair - well we weighed up the time and parts costs and just thought lets get a new one - it had been repaired by OH a couple of time before, has been a bit of a work horse, so owes us nothing :) OH has stripped it off all 'useful bits' :mad: but as long as they have been stored in his workshop I really dont care !

    BT CC shuffling morning - why cant I get my N*xt store card transferred - need a card number like on a CC - really annoyed:mad::mad: I have let the balance creep up so I thought I would BT it then cut up.

    Want to get rid of this debt much quicker than I am at the moment - just need to find £500/month and it would be gone in a jiffy........................uuuurgh.....proving difficult:(

    Had quite a productive day - on my own so I can crack on with things without feeling the need to stop and chat, make a cup of tea - OH is a big 'tea break' fan which usually takes about 30 mins each time :eek: or just generally distracted by another human being :D garden is definitely slipping into Autumn - lawns getting a covering of leaves mainly due o strong winds yesterday, fairy rings everywhere, windfalls and a general feeling of closing down for the winter. Picked the last of the damsons but left the apples - we just pick them as we need them and I have planted out some winter salads - might just turn into slug food. Sorted green house and cut back a huge sage which has taken over - going to grow one in a pot as it is far too vigorous.

    Had a revisit to the sheds that contain saleable 'stuff' just to remind me what is in there - cleared out and sorted over the summer. Is all boxed and labelled ready to go - FB Eb*y or local NCT NNS - hoping it will contribute to that £500/month I want :eek:

    3 more bin liners gone to CS this weekend and some books CDs and DVDs scoped out fora Z!ffit or Z*pper hit and a whole load of paper stuff recycled or ready to go on log burner - which we may well light tonight in time for Poldark :D

    Some programs on our new WM are over 3 hrs long.........how is that efficient on a triple A rated top of the energy rating appliance?? Similar program on our old WM was about 1hr 50 - very odd!

    £1.25 away from a £20 pay out from Your S*y P*ys. :j You watch the surveys will dry up now or I will be kicked out as dont meet the criteria! You G*v surveys have slowed down a bit too now I am getting closer to the £50 :mad:
