Countdown to Freedom

Wow thanks for that Tilly I never knew you could do that - it will help me get through all these diaries from start to finish a little quicker :j

(You have time for these things when you are not allowed to do anything - its kept me sane! )

Hi Tilly,

Glad to hear you are feeling better.

Can I please ask a stupid question - what is TCB and £co please?

Top cash back - yu earn money for clicking through to shops you want to buy online from

£co - Quidco

If you want me to give you a referral code, I gain, and I think you do too, but would need to check that

What a lovely surprise, how are you doing?

I'm very well thanks - I started a new diary as we are close (I hope!) to selling our house and then I can start again with the overpaying.

And your diary has just shrunk to 200 pages.... Thanks for the tip!

I thought everybody had it on the max setting as I do it automatically so I used to get very confused when people would refer to pages and I could never find what they were talking about!

TCB = topcashback and £co = quidco they're cashback sites - you go via them when you make an online purchase and they give you cashback on the purchase :T

ETA: cross posted Tilly!

Thank you

I assume you get the cash back in return for them obtaining your personal information? I am very tempted to use sites like that. It does concern me though about what they do with your information, who they sell it too, and how many spam emails are generated as a result.

Am I being over the top and overly worried?

Hi, we use a separate email address only for on line purchases, thus both accounts were set up using this.

Plus we only use one credit card (cashback) with TCB and £co purchases.

They earn money due to the traffic they push to the outlets, as well I am sure, the details are useful for market research.

Someone who knows more is likely to pop by 😉

Believe me it is

There is a part of me which is fearful as I've always worked so hard and am well paid but .......... We will be MF next year and I would like to focus on other stuff. CAP efforts, a charity with children, the other two charities we volunteer for, not to jump into more immediately but to give time wisely, where it can be most effective.

Will just have to wait it out and I had a fab plan earlier this year, which didn't work out. If the time is right for me, hopefully things will align.

Best wishes, Tilly x

Definitely frustrated - 1 in 2 of everything I post on MSE crashes whilst typing. Not sure what's going on.

So for the second time.......

We are walking the hounds shortly. Just 45 minutes but will take the camera just in case a delightful 'snap' opportunity arises.

Today will find us chopping back a hedge. We were leaving until next year but have decided it's gone too mad. We have a shredder and will be able to chop, gather, shred and mulch in one session. Let's hope DS is up to helping.

DD is coming home tonight and has put a request in for Mr Ts HM pizza.

She joined the student money site last night and now has two free cinema tickets. I'm referring her to You Gov as well

I've just been pinch punched :eek:

Need to drink my tea then get cracking.

Best wishes Tilly x x

Ha ha :rotfl:. I got Mr GG earlier, even better as he'd remembered while he was in the shower but then forgot :j.

Warning - stay away from my diary - I'm about to post something which will shock you :eek:.
