    Just picked up a 3* one for dealing with debt - now that I should be able to write about! :D

    Wish we were 4* - there are 23 shopping ones on there at the moment.

    Well done, you must be nearing your 5 articles by now?

    I'll see if I can pick another one up before the end of the day. I could always do the Russian one if I'm desperate :rotfl:

    This will be my 4th one. Wanting to get to the 5 so i can have them rated but heard they block your account till they have which will be annoying, especially as the amount of articles coming through seems to have picked up.

    Would love to see you do the Russian one :rotfl: I expect that will be there for a while.

    Hope they don't take long to grade you then. I'm going to try and get to 5 articles by the end of the week.

    Not sure that OH will survive. I keep getting texts every 5 minutes saying 'I have man flu'. I've just sent one back saying 'I have cystic fibrosis' and it seems to have stopped him moaning for now!! :rotfl:

    Yay, just got another article :). I was beginning to think I wouldn't get one before the day was out. It's only a 2 star, but every little helps. I'll write it tomorrow.

    OH has gone to bed now (thank God!!). I'm sleeping in the front room on the air bed as he is snoring like a tractor and I don't want my cold getting any worse.
