Hypno's kick up the backside debt diary....

livinginhope

Hi hypno :hello:

Glad to hear you had a good day out in Yarmouth today,even if it was sort of work related shame about the horrible weather today,but at least it stayed dry for you
I had chips off Yarmouth market yesterday just a kiddie cone with garlic mayo,but it was ......ssshhhhh! 09.00 :eek: I was really hungry and the smell just makes you want them,I couldn't resist,I did point them in true WW style but still felt guilty
What has happened to your neck? been looking back through your diary,but can't find out hope it's not giving you too much 'gip'
and that it gets better soon.
Do you know of any coach companies doing trips to Cadbury world from these here parts? I would love to take the kids,but can't find any trips,don't want to drive as it spoils the day a little

Chips & mayo? Sounds like you'd love a weekend break in the Flanders region of Belgium.......they sell that as a snack everywhere!

Chips, mayo, beer, Belgian chocolate, waffles.....and people say Belgium is boring!

Kettle's on, and hellmans at the ready!!

You have hellmans with a cup of tea? Now that is seriously wierd!!!

The car park at cadbury world was really busy but the site is quite big so I didn't feel it was too busy. If you are going i'd recommend pre-booking tickets for the tour as if you arrive you often have to wait two hours. We booked for 1150am but didn't get there till 1215 so we were taken right to the front of the queue. Very impressive!

Glad your grandpa is more comfortable. Sometimes going over budget just isn't important is it xx

Hi LIH, I have just had a look for coach excursions to Cadbury world but couldn't find any from this area. Looks as though it will be a car trip instead!

I had the 85p cone of chips, but could have done with just the kids cone, because I couldn't eat them all. They were divine though, and I would recommend them to anyone!!

LA, I think a trip to Belgium could be in order too - you have really sold me the whole idea!!

This sounds a great day - I second the mayo and chips, v Belgian, and v yummy. I also confess that the year I graduated, I worked at the Cadburys factory on Merseyside for a summer job. Stuffed myself with chocolate eggs - never got put off chocolate by over-familiarity, I was on the Christmas puddings!

Appalling that your grandpa's cushion was taken away - absolute madness. You *have* to set that right, but like you say, they kind of bank on it. Sorry your family has got caught in that.

Hi Hypno...what a productive day for you....and how awful that you ended up having to pay for the cushion!!!...I know you don't begrudge it him....the thing that gets me is that people like your grandpa worked all their lives and went to wars etc and get cheated like !!!!!!!...while you get people having never worked getting everything....it makes me sick!!!
I hope your neck is starting to get better and that your Aldi stuff worked out ok for you.

Good morning Hypno,

Definitely another recommendation for Belgium here. Bruges was my first experience of mayo and chips

You are doing a brilliant job of advertising mystery shopping, £65, then free petrol for visiting and shopping, and the ultimate a cupboard full of Hellmans


Got to read a printout of the matched betting thread today and catch up with the comping, but it's Friday, so the weekend starts soon, definitely something to smile about

Hope flylady is still going well.

Hope the neck is improving. I can't believe how much you're doing considering that, it can't be helping.

Morning all! The sun is shining and I have a nice easy day today. The children are going to a Fencing (the sport, not the wooden garden sort) class at the local sports centre for an hour, and then they have karate, and DD has a party this evening, but apart from that it will be a quick 27 fling flylady boogies and a bit of R&R I think. I have clients booked in for most of tomorrow, so I am going to have a day off today to make up for it!

The neck is slowly getting better, so that is good. The hands and arms are still hurting but they will get there. The physio is using ultrasound on them so they will heal in their own good time I am sure.

Yesterday I transported my spreadsheet over from the old laptop to my new one and got that updated. Things are tight for August, but not so tight that I am panicking so I am quite content with that. If I can get my bum in gear to do some more matched betting or ebaying, we can get through the month quite nicely, although overpayments will still be hard to come by.

Well, have had a lovely day today, doing almost absolutely nothing!!! A friend brought her two round, all the children went off to the park and out on bikes etc and me and my friend sat in the garden, armed with the sun cream, coffee, and a bottle of wine! An ideal way to recover on a summer Friday afternoon!

As a result, I have so far had a NSD, but I am out of milk and coffee, so do need to go to Tesco when I pick DD up from a party, but generally, a good DFW and very relaxing day :j

Your day sounds lovely Hypno - glad it was restful. I didn't do much - spent an obscene amount in Tesco so careful you don't get more than the millk and coffee
