    Worked all day from home with a little trip out to a country park with the boys this afternoon for a couple of hours. Lovely outside, sunny and warm but with some clouds to keep it comfortable.

    Sadly we had to spend £3 parking as there was no where close by to illegally park. We brought them home for their ice creams though rather than having them there!

    Should be going to Body Pump tonight, but I hurt too much from yesterdays class. So, having a night off.

    Had a little look at the FD Internet banking - looks great, especially for those with accounts in different institutions.

    Since we have everything with nationwide, I'm not going to bother as I can see everything in one place anyway.....

    Very quiet on here at the moment, either everyone is very busy or away spending!

    It is very quiet!

    Can I ask what the FD thing is? It links up other banks?!

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Regarding my finances, I have found my coin purse tool to be most effective. I open it up every day to check that I still have no money. Then close it again.
    If anyone would like further information regarding my coin purse tool, please send me a PM.

    I open my coin purse (no, no, no, my Fossil purse) and find it full of 1p coins - roadkill! Should start doing TTs so that I can beat Tilly in no time.
