    • Told a friend about this lovely forum
    • Checked banking
    • Looked for a bed on gumtree - no luck with the one yest :(
    • 20p on Onepoll… Should be called 'One day' - don't think I'll ever see a payout!
    • Really need to get my TVs listed for sale!!
    • Keeping my fingers and toes crossed that #5 comes out in Lotto tonight! £66 for me if so… I think I need it more than most in this office :(
    • Sorting through more paperwork this eve - keeping missminimalist in mind ;)
    • Leftovers for lunch
    • Updated my linkedin profile with new skills :cool:
    • Bagged 6h of overtime :j
    • Told my boss I should be getting paid more :p
    Told my boss the work I'm doing for a major project…When he realised the work involved he obviously forgot he was talking to me and said that he was worried his resource bill would go 'through the roof' as he will need to be 'paying people a fortune to do this'. I repled "See, you should be paying me a fortune." :rotfl: Just another £7k please and we will be friends :D

    Happy wishing-for-number-5-on-the-lotto day!

    I agree. I won't use OnePoll after I've reached £40.
