    It is remarkably quiet on here!

    Well I finally took the plunge and re-activated my doyoo and ciao accounts. I also actually wrote a review. I'm not going to complete the challenge on these but will try and get at least 4 reviews a week on there.

    Not much else as everything seems to have slowed down.

    Good luck thrifters.:beer:

    Shouldn't laugh - hope the title doesn't get the post banned!

    My Uncles bday today, couldn't go down, so dad took mum + Miss Hoodie, the step into his house is slightly high and narrow, its flimsy to the extent that if Miss Hoodie puts her foot on it wobbles.

    --
    Mum tried to get her leg over missed, fell backwards, so apparently dad and my uncle tried to grab a arm each to stop her falling... to late, she fell into the rosebushes, dad on top of her, then my uncle on top of him.

    Apparently my Aunt was laughing so much she had to do the 100 yard dash to the loo!. xx
    xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx

    Nicky - well done on your redeem xx

    Jediteacher - good you managed to get the accounts up and working again, looking forward to reading and rating your reviews xx

    Mum2one - how on earth did they all get up afterwards lol. I doubt I would have been able to get back up again and I would have needed the toilet too like your Aunt. Hope the rose bushes didn't scratch them. Probs a good thing it was winter and not summer when they might have had less clothing on.

    Just managed a survey on viva. Have done lots of rating today so going to give it all a miss tonight and watch some tele for a bit.

    Evening all, recieved my £10 asda voucher from mm today and have redeem for £10 am on vo so should get that pretty quickly.

    Is there someone on here who is a childminder?? Thinking of looking into it but not sure if it would work and if the initial costs would be too much - any advice welcome.

    Off work for 5 days now so want to get loads done in the house with the kids and with moneymaking bet I don't fit everything in!! Main thing is I have 10 reviews left to write for my challenge so I want to get those written before I go back to work.

    Hope everyone is ok seems very quiet on here.

    Emma - I have replied on fb

    mum2one - I would have laughed so much!!!!! Hope all were ok though.

    It is very quiet on here at the moment, hope that means you all are making lots. Got my rewards through from sb and sp that was quicker than I expected and a nice surprise.

    Hope you all have a great weekend. x

    think it was the poor rose book that took the most damage, shouldn't laugh, luckly shes ok, the jacket took the thorns of the roses, as least she is well padded.

    Good news haven't got to court next week, the solicitor said its a directions hearing as what whey they need to go, with being poorly not worth me going as Id be sat there staying stum!! (no comment).

    miss Hoodie is very happy re her ballon flight, that was till i told her she has to be there at 6am when her + dad go!!

    Me I've cashed out £80 in Amazon vouchers got £20 going throu on points, so reckon 10 days get that, then I'm treating myself to a kindle, wanted one for ages, this way feel less quilty. xx
