    Virtual Sealed Pot - there's a challenge thread about it but I didn't join it this year. For example when I get paid I shave off the oddment and put it in a separate savings account and when I got a pay rise the extra goes into here instead of blowing it. Like a savings jar for loose change but virtual.

    BHS have got a 70% off clearance on summer stuff Beanie. Might be worth a rummage. Hate how the shops are full of autumn/winter stuff when some of us haven't been away yet! Where are you going?

    More or less packed and ready to go. Mr SA is asleep and hasn't even decided what he's taking. Just had to go out and buy sun lotion as he led me to believe he had some in his case - he hadn't! I've got my own sensitive skin sun cream he uses a dry oil spray one. Just doing a clean/tidy up then taking the dog out before relaxing in the bath. Had a manicure and pedicure this morning so I'm ready if no one else is. Dog and cats are moping about, I'm sure they can sense we're leaving them in DD's hands for a week. Can't say I blame them, I'd mope about too if I thought DD was looking after me for a week! They won't be getting fed at 6am that's for sure! Can't believe this time tomorrow we'll be there :)
