    Jakes-mum send them round to me. We don't have tv and they can keep my two monsters occupied. If you send them recorded delivery (just to be on the safe side) on Monday they could be at mine on Tuesday for you to have peace and quiet :rotfl:

    Ok who would like my kids for the next week?? They are driving me loopy . . I WANT TO WATCH THE OLYMPICS!! :D, 2 weeks every 4 years I want the tv and to be left in peace! They can have it and me every other day without protest from me, but PLEASE leave me and my TV alone for those 2 weeks :rotfl:
    Im getting to the point of buying another tv for me bedroom (I did have one but somehow it became DH's second computer monitor . . not sure how :think:) and paying for multiroom just so I can lock meself in the bedroom to watch uninterrupted.

    Anyway, another sparkly £2 coin in the pot with 30p in silver to keep it company


    Good Morning Everyone

    Back from a lovely break. Lots of pennies have gone in my pot.

    I will have Miss Lily and Jake as well with all the kids I have won't notice another two. Think I would need more food in though.

    Welcome to all the newbies. Hope you all enjoy saving on here

    I'm off to Sparkyland for the day you know what they say make hay while the sun shines ! or is it?

    When the cat's away the mice will play? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi all 2p road kill found by my youngest. Havent saved anything in weeks am falling behind my £1 a day target will hopefully catch up:)

    Am really worried about money at the moment as when my boy goes to uni I get no tax credits or child allowence for him which is £260 a month:eek: which is a quater of the money I have coming in, dont know what I'm going to do!! Am very distressed.
    is he going away to uni or staying at home? if he's going away could you maybe get a foriegn student in his room you can have short term or long term in i'm in bristol and the language schools here pay £280 a month if you host a student it could help you out a lot.

    About £4 in this week, but I'm not keeping count as I want a lovely surprise in November!

    It's been a hectic week as I started my new job and have been working early shifts to avoid Olympics traffic.

    Some really really good news though this weekend, our flat should be ready tomorrow rather than later in the month as I thought - we nearly have all of the paperwork sorted and all the money is sorted, I'll just need to go to the office and collect the keys. I am so excited! It just doesn't seem real. We've waited so long to be able to move in together :D I will need to budget very very carefully as things will be incredibly tight this month. And I'd better start reading the threads on other parts of the site to learn how to run a house! Any tips gratefully received :D
