    Went to the supermarket today and I am sure that Seaxwyn is doing her stuff again.........super fab chocolate is on BOGOF!!!!!

    But I resisted :T It was SO difficult, but resist I did.......and put some more money in my jar when I got home instead :j

    On the old DFW front today, OH did bike insurance through quidco, so £20 to come in due course and DD had a birthday today so has now got enough clothes to last her for the rest of the year, and cash to buy the shoes she wants!

    Tomorrow I think we will have an ebay-loading and matched betting day. OH is on hol from work this week so I have a list of stuff a mile long that he never ordinarily seems to have time for! I reckon he will suddenly invent an emergency at work that needs him back pronto - it will make his life much easier :rolleyes:

    Hiya hypno, how did your afternoon go? good i hope. Fab news re the chocolate thats excellent! did the vanilla essence help?
    now i have a question. Have managed to pop the massive sum of £26 into a (previously empty) savings acc. do i try out MBing on it for the first time ever and possibly risk loosing the lot? or do i keep it nice and safe and tucked up warm in said account? HELP!!!
    LOL to the suggestion of DH legging it back to work!! Think maybe using his motorbike security lock to tie him to the radiator may be effective!

    Hope DD had a really lovely birthday.
    Kind wishes

    Believe it or not, he is currently at work on an "urgent call out".

    I kid you not...........Am I really that difficult to live with/be married to :confused:

    P, I would wait until you have about £60 to start the matched betting, reason being you will have the bug so quick after starting that you will just want to continue, and not wait for cash to be sent back to your bank!!! If you do sporting odds or sporting bet, they are good ones for newbies on a slightly smaller starting budget I think.

    You won't lose it, I am sure. The newbies thread on the gambling loopholes board is fab, and they will check everything through before you go if you like. Honest, they helped me no end when I started, and there always seems to be someone there!

    DD had a great birthday. Fast asleep now, thankfully!

    Hi James and thanks for popping by. Hope things are going ok for you.

    P, OH didn't get home from "urgent call out" until after midnight and has already gone back in to work to finish the job off! Some people will do anything to avoid ebaying.....:rolleyes:

    Today I am hoping to catch up with some matched betting - I want a real "push" to try and get under the £40,000 mark - otherwise Seaxwyn will win this race hands down :o

    Thanks P. I am around on Monday afternoon if you want to do the matched betting thing together. Don't mind driving out to you if that is easier (and the internet connection is reliable :rotfl: ).

    enjoy the run - at least it is fairly dry at the min. Make the most of it!
