Evening all, feeling quite tired tonight so don't think I will be on very late. Tomoro is my last day of out of 5 just don't know where the time goes. Nearly there on sb again so trying to get there tonight but never seem to get any bonuses for searching recently.

I uderstand about the school and parents not going Cha97michelle, but today was a nice surprise. The class were going to the library just over the road and parents were invited and 7 parents and grandparents turned up. A few years ago I doubt there would have been one.

Had some mystery shopping so the reports need to go in and I really need to get a few reviews for C as I am really behind and dont want to be doing 3 a day over the weekekend.

Really finding SP pointless as I am getting about 10 a day and while it is only spinning it is boring and little comes from it. Still only 10% of the way to redeem.

I have done one of the bingo sites so hope the cashback clears and messed up another one. At least I got a refund but am probably registered now so wont be able to try again and get more cashback.

hope everyone ok, plodding along with the reviewing, seems never ending.

Got Miss Hoodie off school again, sickness bug, so back to the GP. sure we have reserved seats in there!, yet a different doctor, its a viral infection and shes got swollen glands, bless her shes got to have blood + urine tests done to get to the bottom of it. So hopefully get to the route of it. xx

This is one of my bug bears - if schools held events over weekends then more people could attend. I work full time, and cannot attend any school events which take place during working hours. My son and I therefore miss out on going to quite a few school events that he would like to go to

It is hard and I do understand.

However, teachers do work very hard during the week and to be honest the last thing they want to do is then work at the weekend in school. It is not a 9.00am - 3.30pm job as many believe - it is blumin exhausting and a lot of hard work. I myself am a teacher and a mum - my weekends are for my children and not everyone elses. We do do some events at the weekend to balance things out but whatever we do someone will always be unhappy.

I'm sorry I do not mean offence but I do feel that people loose sight that of the fact that we as teachers are not there 24/7.

I do really understand as I myself loose out on seeing my daughter's assemblies and any in-school events as I myself am teaching at the same time!

Anyway, I'll probably be shot down for saying this and I really do not mean any offence.:o

Anyway, nearly at a redeem at both SB and SP. Just really hoping Toluna get their finger out and give us our points.

Morning all. found another review to copy over to C from DY so it should take me over the £50 mark for this month if I can get some rates on it. I am having a sewing day today but can get a bit of rating done for an hour or so then some more this afternoon when I have had enough of the sewing.

Lots of videos on supersonic this morning on SB
