Lots of sport today...Moto GP,Grand Prix and Wimbledon......fantastic....have bought ready meal curry ( the big box pack) so won't miss a thing by being in the kitchen.....out for a walk then settling down for a 'Grand Day In'....0 -
thanks CW
got a few little things on that i was sure about postage on
need to be careful with postage on larger bits
was surprise to find 2 things have bids already this morning and some being watched, so fingers crossed
luckily hes not moving that far , just to other end of village but he does need a HUGE clear out. they've started which is good.
being a builder he has all the stuff related to that too to move/store:eek::eek:CouponWoman wrote: »Thanks MT, hope you manage to get some stuff listed on ebay. Don't envy your dad moving, terrible job moving, packing, boxes everywhere, so de-cluttering will really help.
Good luck with your ebay sales.
I am OK thanks, the weather is sunny here so my son is cutting the hedge for me, it was a bit overgrown.:j
Hope everyone is well.

Afternoon all, busy Sunday here we took dd to b&q to do cask ids can do it class and she made a trinket box it really good so we bought a couple paint testers to paint it later lilac and bright pink. Great way to entertain the kids on a rainy Sunday
Trying to resists supermarkets today but really do need bread. If I maybe leave my mocs at home I will buy just bread lol0 -

So glad you have saved sooo much...have you put the money by for something else, or already spent it on other things?
jax
Thanks Jax (and everyone else) I can't admit that I've put the money towards anything tangible as such like one specific thing - in a way I wish I had as that would be a nice holiday, but I have managed to build up a nice stockpile and bought items I wouldn't have otherwise been able to without the additional savings. Fridge, freezer, cupboards and spare room nice and full so i guess that's testament to the savings I've been able to make - lets say I wont be in need of pasta sauce for a long time :rotfl: unfortunatley OH not quite so controlled with finances as I try to be so it's a bit lot like swimming against the tide a [STRIKE]bit[/STRIKE] lot of the time - which can be somewhat demoralising.
oh, that soggy womble by the car yesterday gave me all of 2p - oh well, if it had been 2p on the floor I'd have still picked that up :cool:Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

MT - glad you found a top you like and treated yourself.
BP - shed coming along nicely, albeit a bit slowly. Just needs the glass putting in now, but that will have to wait a couple of weeks
as busy next couple of weekends.
Did leave OH on his own though today, I went raspberry picking, then took mum out for an hour or so, then came home to catch up on housework and made some raspberry jam. :j:j0
