    Anyone doing Maximiles vids? Have you done the Dragon for Mac?

    I was sitting watching it, and suddenly I thought "I know that building!" the one just as he is crossing the road, and the piano drops on him.

    That is the business next to my old workplace! I know it well! And just checked googlemaps and yep, definitely it! What a tiny, tiny world!

    Up early, so thought I would make a start:

    1. Signed up on 3 more survey sites
    2. Made oatcakes instead of buying them - ingredients all in - and healthy!
    3. Made a list of all outgoings

    Will add during the day and hopefully get to 5!

    Hi everyone

    I hope you have all had a good day and enjoyed the sunshine :) (if you have it in your part of the world).

    So, my 10 for the day are:
    1. Did an offer on Quidco for £1 cashback
    2. Got a 10 point click-through and completed a 75 point offer on Pigsback
    3. Got 10 points on McCain Spud Shillings
    4. Applied for a free box of chocolates
    5. Played on Woohoo - up to 35 gold stars now
    6. Had an NSD
    7. Did some quick polls on To Luna for 165 points
    8. Applied for a L'Oreal Elvive free sample
    9. Got a coupon for a free packet of Walkers crisps
    10. Applied for a Herbal Essences free sample

    Had to rely on the freebies board for some of mine today. The surveys are always thinner on the ground over the weekend.

    Right, off to get ready for the X Factor. See you all tomorrow.

    Emz xx
