    Happy Birthday CAFCGIRL,
    Do you want dad around to duff up BF.

    Are those shopping bags you're carrying really bags of debt???

    Happy birthday CAFCgirl!!!!!

    Don't let that loser bf get you down.

    I've let the side down and spent £1 on a Mother's Day card. I know I could have made one but I thought about it and decided my mum would actually really prefer a bought one.

    Also spent 55p on the local paper. I'm involved in a campaign to stop the National Trust felling a beautiful avenue of old beech trees so I wanted to see if the paper had covered it. It hadn't - boo hoo. The paper does have a competition to win some beauty products so I'll enter in the hopes of getting something back for my 55p.

    I have just won two tickets to the Ideal Home Show in another comp - should I use them or sell them? Opinions please.

    Happy Birthday CAFCgirl, and well done on getting your deposit back!

    Thanks for all the advice everyone my friend loved her presents, and I charged the kids, they moaned but still paid up. No point in charging DH as all money is joint. (I think I made a profit anyway!!) He, like CAFCgirl's BF is going to St Patrick's night do even though I offered to cook Irish food at home. Apparently he has to go because the Guinness is on offer that night!!
