:eek: Shocking :eek:. Self, self, self. No social responsibility. Another legacy of the Thatcher Years :rotfl:.
When I was a kid, I remember reading about a man who divided his council tax into 260 equal bits (no of working days in a year) and went into the council offices EVERY DAY to pay that day's charge in mixed coin. Cost the council a fortune in admin.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Morning Tilly,
Hope you have a great day today.
I'm running my own group tonight so will probably get a few £2 coins in my money tin. That'll help my cause!
Hope today moves you forward too!

Morning
I set a regular OP for the £13 tax benefit last night. Will go out the same day as the others.
No OP news today although someone is interested in a room. Who knows, maybe this could be the one
I need to sort out washing and ironing tonight, but we will be off for a family walk first - first night all week when we are together all night, (WHOOPS I FORGOT I WAS OUT WITH FRIENDS TONIGHT - PLUS ITS POURING WITH RAIN) so will make sure we get out in the fresh air with the hounds.
Having done so many things to reduce our spends, I need to be more creative about making some money now. OP is consistent but as payout is £40 will take a while - Mr T is just over £15, I'm just over £10.
Will fix another date for the mythical car boot - clearing the garage will be quite motivating. My loo roll mountain has had to be topped up and is already decreasing. Not sure what that says about our cooking :rotfl:
I found more of DSs toys in a spare wardrobe the other day so need to sell or give away. We did sort some of his clothes recently and that made some space in his wardrobe. I would say half the stuff is too small, but he doesn't want to get rid of them all.
Have a great Thursday and I'm so looking forward to Friday. We're off out tonight

Due to tax changes I'm £13 better off - waiting for Mr Ts to understand if we benefit there as well. Although we gain at the bottom, we lose at the top but at least overall we've gained :T

Maybe I should start them!!!:rotfl:
