    Thanks you lot! Have had a busy busy day - took DS to buy his new ski boots, and picked up 4 pairs of skis for the trip, and some few bits and pieces. Had to put it on the credit card so really want to have the money in place to clear it pretty soon.
    DS got £65 for his birthday so put that towards the cost - the cash will be going straight off the card when the bill comes in.

    The in-laws are here at the moment to say happy birthday, and then we are off to take the kids race training......never ending :p

    I hope you all have a good evening x

    Well another day coming to a close. I have sold a dress on ebay for £7.51, received a couple of £ from Amazon and have received £5 for a mystery shop I did a while back. Also, DS got birthday money which has gone into the ski pot, and the In-Laws gave the children £15 pocket money (!!) each, which they immediately handed over to me (well trained or what!) to add to the fund.

    finally, at race training tonight we were paid £50 for a pair of old skis that we sold at the weekend, so all in all a good day, with the total in the sig being increased.

    Tomorrow I am trying acupuncture for the first time, to see if it helps my neck/back so I am bizarrely quite looking forward to it!!

    I have added £140 ish to the total today - DS put his birthday money in, the in-laws gave some pocket money, and we got the money for the sale of some old skis, so a nice increase!!

    £750 by the end of the weekend........the challenge is most definitely on!!

    Morning!! Well 4am was when I woke this morning :mad: no idea why, but just too darned early!!!

    Managed to get back to sleep but when the alarm went off at 6 I just didn't want to wake up!

    Today I have to pack up and post an ebay parcel and get something else listed in its place, go to the bank, and have some acupuncture.

    Other than that, I need to catch up on admin and work stuff so hopefully will be more awake as the day goes on! I am doing another extra shift at the Uni tomorrow so need to catch up today otherwise I will be very much behind.

    Hope you all have a good day xx

    And once again....... wow!:rotfl: :beer:

    Okay, a lot of it is gifts allocated to the fund, but, good heavens, thats great! Okay, no slobbing for me. I'm off to your "what will you do today!" thread, quick-like.
    Have a good day today, hope the acupuncture goes well, I've liked it when I've had it.
