    No definite plans for this year, just continue with the mortgage overpayments etc.

    Will try to do more surveys, and keep doing the bingo (now have a little stack of ID stuff I can send them)
    May look at doing some comps too.

    I have started OK, have spent the morning sorting out emails. Creating folders etc. and a couple of throw away email addresses. Off to buy a little notebook to keep track of things in.

    I wonder about comps, I've often done the odd one - they're fun, and people are very kind on here. Can't guarantee winning tho!
