Morning

Went to Wimbledon yesterday. Had a great day, watched around 7 hours of tennis and my sister paid for everything, so I didn't spend any money :cool:.
Back to work today though. Got loads to catch up on and I'm on auntie duties today and tomorrow.
Cold is slowly going, but the cough remains.
It's my uncle's birthday today, so have put £10 in a card for him.

What cross stitch are you doing?
Thanks Beccie
.
It's a Popcorn cross-stitch kit with a couple of bears and a dog playing in the rain under a rainbow. I'm very embarrassed to say that I got it just after my niece was born, as I wanted her to have something that I made for her that she could keep. She is 5 now, so I have been really bad in getting it done
- hence the goal to make sure I actually do it and get it done eventually (preferably before she's 6!! :rotfl:). I want to do one for my nephew too.

Popcorn stuff is so sweet

I'm the same with cross stitch stuff - love it but always forget how long it takes to finish one!
Might join in with you if that's ok? I've just ordered wool to crochet my Mum a double bed sized blanket for Xmas :eek: I know I need to start now to get it done but I'm rubbish at getting on with stuff so I'll sign up to 20 hours crochet in July if that's ok

Of course it's okay
. I need someone to give me a kick up the backside when I'm not putting in the hours! 
I'm sure your mum will love the blanket
. Sounds like a lovely present.

Morning. I'm tired today
- only got around 6 hours sleep due to coughing.
Put £10 diesel into my car yesterday and spent a couple of quid on some shopping. Did a survey last night for £3 Luncheon vouchers too.
Better get on with some work.

Morning
Still feeling tired, think I got a bit more sleep though.
Woke up at 1.30am and came online for a bit. Won £10.81 on the JPJ free game, so withdrew that. I'll use that to get another goody bag for my phone next week.
Just had the post and my Luncheon Vouchers are here. Also got a letter from a DCA about my Cahoot loan that I hadn't heard about for a while. Turns out I owe a few quid less than I thought on that.
