When I asked for luck I didn't mean the bad variety!!!

Hope you got back to sleep. That boat tragedy is just so awful it doesn't bear thinking about. Scary for you that you've been on that boat! There for the grace of God.....

Hope you and your family have a fab day today - woke up to beautiful sunshine where I am hope it's like this where you are.

Morning SA!

It's beautiful here too :j:j:j. Think we are going to make the best of it and combine it with our new National Trust membership for a lovely free day out . Unfortunately it wont be a NSD as I need fresh bread for sandwiches etc, but a picnic will be cheaper than eating at any facilities they provide. I doubt I'll be allowed to pass the ice cream stand either which they will undoubtedly have :cool:.

I hope you have a fab day too Xx

:j sounds like a fantastic day out Plmbl

you take care of yourself if you can juggle the budget for anyone else to have what they need then maybe doing it this once for yourself will be the lift you need, a new hair do and a few new threads make all the difference at times.

As for making a few more ££ have alot at nielsen mobile rewards I make about £60 just by letting them tack my phone data and that gets paid in vouchers which i specifically get in Dotty P or Evans so they are spent on me! I also use isops surveys/ valued opinions and again get paid in amazon vouchers to cover bits for the house/birthday pressies..... it all helps. Maybe I'm trying to teach a old dog new tricks and you uses these already?! in which case any tips :rotfl::rotfl::D

I have a few angel babies and as time passes it does get easier and dates become less painful but each and everyone of them is with me and I did something to mark them.

Talking sense as always Mrs Hinge!

We've had a lovely day at Gibside. The sun shone and the kids ran wild . It turned out to be a NSD after all thanks to some bread discovered in the freezer and MIL paying for coffees etc while we were there . Really must go food shopping tomorrow though, very little left in the house!!

I do shop & scan with nielsen which I usually cash out as cinema vouchers, but don't do the mobile app. Will definitely look in to it thank you. £60 at Dotty P's sounds fab!! I also do valued opinions, Toluna and swagbucks.

Off to do Beavers now - no rest for the wicked! Back later Xx

Nielsen never want me i've tried upteen times to get onto their panel!

Enjoy beavers!

please-let-me-be-lucky

Only one beaver turned up!!! So had to cancel. I will never offer to do it on a Bank Hol again!! I wouldn't care but I'd canvassed opinion and more than half said they'd still be coming. No one even bothered to text me any excuses or apologies. :mad::mad::mad:

Sounds like you had a great day apart from beavers. How annoying!

Beautiful day here :j:j:j Got a load of washing on the line and another in the machine. DS2 and I have been doing chalk drawings on the patio in the sunshine I could so get used to this!!

Been mentally tidying up the back garden, just got to start physically doing it :rotfl:. We have a very old wooden bench which I may have just killed with my fat a$$ . That needs to go to the tip along with some other bits and pieces and we have a few empty pots to refill as what was in them didn't make it through the winter. Will make sure at least one of them is planted with something special for angel baby.

DS1 went to school in shorts this morning. Searching for his school shorts highlighted how few shorts in general he has that still fit. Will have to buy him some more. DH then decided to check his wardrobe and it appears he only has 2 pairs that fit also. Knew that when I decided to spend some money on getting myself some new clothes they would need something instead!!
