Phew! Have just finished reading all 21 pages. :T

Well done on your progress LondonGirl. I haven't worked in London since pre kids but it seems the temptation to go for lunch or after work drinks never changes!

A coupleof tips from me, I drink lime and soda if I'm not drinking or vodka, lime and soda if I am. No one can tell the difference . Knock the j20s on the head, you wouldn't believe the number of calories in them.

Do you pick up the Evening Standad? If so, look out for the set meal for £10/£15 offers they do every so often.

If you manage to build up a decent amount of Tesco vouchers then look out for their theatre ticket offers. The shows available change all of the time but we've seen Legally Blonde, Billy Elliot and Jersey Boys over the past year. Chuck in a Pizza Express voucher and an night out that would usually come to around £90 only costs the amount of our train fare in actual cash!

Have subscribed to keep up with your DF story.

Good luck with your exam as well.

Hello and well done on being so organised with your study. I always found it really difficult to be motivated doing mine! When is the exam?

That sounds like a very good deal with the Quidco. I joined it ages ago but then never bothered to see how it works etc and don't use it. I really should! In fact, I am going to have a look right now, thank you.

Enjoy your ride tomorrow - I'm sure it will be all the more enjoyable having got ahead with study first!

Quidco is good if you remember to use it, but it does seem to take AGES to pay.

Hi Lizzie, thanks for reading! It's getting quite long now so appreciate it!!

Oh the temptation never ends! I'm just learning to manage it better, I must come across as permanently ill or busy Good tip on the vodka and soda, are J2O's really that bad? Oops will avoid!

I do get both, so will look out for them! That's great deals with tesco, I have started points collecting properly as I had lost my clubcard but making up for it now

Thank you!!

Thanks turbo.jet. I think what originally put me off is that I couldn't find what I was looking for (because it was mainly horsey related stuff) but I am setting up my first home shortly so I think it might come in very handy - providing they do pay up eventually!

Hey HH,

Thanks, exam is on Tuesday afternoon, 1:40 - 5pm!!! TJ is right, its great if you remember to use it, I have £11.24 confirmed and ready to pay and £50 waiting to be confirmed, gonna wait for that to be confirmed then get it all transferred in one lump to lob at the credit card

Another 3 chapters down, one more to go!! Breaking for a spot of lunch and housework. Is it bad I'm still not dressed? I have moved from bed to sofa and am wrapped in my blanket

Hoping for NSD 5 today to take me halfway! I'm going for these drinks this evening at my flatmates work, they're free put on my her company so no reason to spend money unless she suggests carrying on elsewhere! However, I'm thinking if I leave my purse at home that's a wonderful excuse to suggest coming home PLUS I have to stress to her I can't be hungover tomorrow as going riding and setting myself a mock exam. If I'm hungover I'll ride then go straight back to bed which will be such a waste of time! Luckily she is very understanding of my study as she has seen how much work and stress it causes first hand She is a gem!

Haha! You're like me! I bought a pelham bit from ebay the other week for £2.50 and got 60p cash back from that

At least you don't have too many more days left studying now.

Well done on the NSDs.

Can you use Quidco on ebay purchases then too?!
