  • Mr MWC has told me that his employer's share price is at an all time record high and he plans to sell some shares tomorrow :D

    He hasn't told me what he plans to do with the money though... I'll have to get the thumbscrews out :rotfl:

    Mr MWC has just sold 202 shares at approximately $80/share :j

    [He bought the shares for $35-$40 each :cool:]

    What a great start to the weekend MWC!

    Very, very pleased and I haven't mentioned it before, however I am actually very knowledgeable regarding the stock market.

    I would recommend that Mr MWC makes his next financial investment in a little known (but very up and coming) commodity called nattypants.

    I'll send through my bank details so he can make a trouble free transaction:D

  • Funny you should mention that Natty... he is thinking of reinvesting it in the stock market :rotfl:

    What sort of dividend do you pay?

  • Phewee the forum is back - I was getting withdrawal symptoms!

    Spent an absolute fortune in the supermarket yesterday however we will eat yummy meals all week made with high quality ingredients, we won't need to buy any cleaning/laundry products for a while and Mr MWC will be clean shaven for ages :D
    Lots of bonus nectar points earned and 10p/L + 7p/L petrol vouchers :T
    This weekend I will be:

    - gardening

    - baking a cheese & pickle bread (using HM spicy pear pickle) and a chocolate brownie cheesecake with cherries (that I will pick this afternoon) for a neighbour's garden party - cheesecake made, bread in progress

    - refurbing my old ottoman - the paint, foam and fabric have all been delivered this week

    - touching up the painted walls that have already been scuffed :mad: - done

    - applying a wall sticker to the landing wall - done

    - supervising Mr MWC putting up a floating shelf - done - everso slightly skewiff despite using a spirit level :(

    - deciding on which of our holiday photos to print and display in my new photo frames

    - hanging the new photo frames

    - choosing carpet - we've narrowed it down to 2 - 1 wool, 1 man-made - I prefer the wool carpet but Mr MWC is allergic to wool so we are testing a piece out for the weekend.

    - trimming the privet hedge in the front garden (it didn't look too bad but the neighbours both sides did theirs last week and now ours looks terrible!) - not done yet but Mr MWC went shopping unsupervised and has bought himself a cordless hedgetrimmer...

  • On a more cheerful note... my chocolate brownie cherry cheesecake went down a storm (during a thunderstorm :rotfl:) at my neighbours gerden party yesterday evening :D

    Natty - here's a photo just for you!!!
