We did have a nice lunch.... tree, cards and decs now down and I feel like we are properly ready to start the new year now:D 5p away from payout on o!epoll though and despite checking around once an hour nothing is appearing - grr!

elantan

did you manage not to kill him?

my decorations are still up ... will try and get them down soon how do you find one poll? i did you gov but found ti keot crashing on me so gave up

skint_spice

Just, he was very sulky when he thought he'd lost his money...ah joy!

I usually take them down before new year but have been lazy this year it's ok, can take ages to reach pay out but if you check a few times a day it's not too bad.

Payout on on!poll today - hooray:j:j!

I am shattered, need to get back into some sort of routine again, can't do late nights:o:(.

Just checked mortgage balance - now in the 46Ks:j:j happy day.

Have had a big day out with DS ending in a lovely meal out and I'm now on sofa thinking about studying...hopefully I may pick up a book soon:o but George Clark is on a lovely island...

Sofa day today - studying and mooching while DS plays footie with his pals online, why they can't just go out and kick a ball about I don't know... jeez I'm old

Bought cleanser and toner using advantage points, have stopped going into Boots these days as superd!ug is much cheaper but they sent me a mail thing telling me I have about £14 worth of points to use

Apart from that bought a card and on the way to post it picked up a penny, this obviously is a sign from above that some huge episode of good luck is heading my way and not that kids just chuck them away as they can't be bothered faffing with them

Good for you El! DS has found another tenner in one of his bags so we're back to the bank tomorrow as he's desperate to get his savings up - my little money saver

Good for him! How old is he, SS?

Anyway, a belated welcome to MFW from me. Nice to have another single parent joining the party. :wave:

Hi Lois_E:wave:, thanks for the welcome. DS is 13 going on 20! He is sweet 80% of the time then 20% stroppy teenager but obviously he knows EVERYTHING!

Washing is currently hanging outside and I can see some blue sky but every now and then it's clouding over and I keep running to the window to check it's not raining, it's not even windy either so this could have been a complete wasted effort:o:o
