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

taxi73

Hi Hypno and all....glad to see you're enjoying yourself while off and still being DFW....cinema for a £1 ...bargain....the tax credits when self-employed are harder as your income fluctuates so much...they pay you for the year but you don't do your accounts until after they've paid you..if that makes sense!!!..have a good day and try to rest a little as your neck is still probably healing...

For those DFW's with too-long grass & lots of weeds can I suggest getting a goat?

It will keep your lawn trimmed, eat all your weeds (and anything else too), plus if you get a lady goat that's had a kid you can get fresh milk!

:rotfl:

If I had a bigger garden we would prob have a goat! As it is, we are simply too lazy to get the lawn mower out on a regular basis!!

DD wants chickens too - again, our garden is simply too small. Perhaps one day!

DD brought home change from the cinema, and has had a good time. I have done a mystery shop so just need to enter the details in! I have also put one thing on ebay - not enough to feel proud of, but hopefully it will spur OH to get listing stuff this week while we are off!

Thanks taxi for reminding me to relax while healing......which one of us is the pot and which one the kettle :rotfl: I am off to the physio this afternoon, so another step closer to being better.

A goat! Had my snooze and come back to a goat! With the hills round me, it would probably do really well! Except I don't have enough fences :rotfl: . And when my cats died a few years ago, I swore I'd be free of obligations for a while. My garden is still a really ecological place tho - foxes, hedgehogs, dragonflies, a moth called the hummingbird hawkmoth, stag beetles, grass snakes, all sorts of stuff. Love it. And I name my woodlice:rotfl: :rotfl:

Or for those with a smaller patch, a guinea-pig.

I think the fertilizer is just bigger compared to guinea pigs and goats. I've always liked the idea of alpacas after stroking a baby one at a zoo, I've never felt anything so soft, it looked gorgeous too. Theoretically you could use the wool .

My brother lives in the country fairly near the coast and takes in a seaside donkey every winter. The family love it and they've had the same one now for 3 years. He's got about an acre of land though and I don't know whether the donkey owners stipulate how much space you have to have to be considered for overwintering a donkey.

Karmacat names her woodlice! :rotfl:

That *did* make me smile!

Well the grass didn't get cut....when I finally made my way down to the shed I realised I had a HUGE amount of blackberries to pick instead YUM
Maybe I'll do the grass tomorrow
