    Dinah - hope Grace slept Ok last night.

    Birdie - definitely just rest and enjoy the peace. I am sure you will have people descending on you once baby is born anyway!

    Cinny - the house sounds like it is coming along well.

    Went out for a glass of wine last night at the indoor ski slope up my road randomly with a friend.

    Ruby, that hotel sounds lovely :) Can't wait to see the links when it's all done.

    Cinny, the house sounds like its coming on brilliantly, your moving date is so soon. I bet you are so excited :j

    Well I'm kicking off the money making February challenge with 4 dates for babysitting. It's not much, but it's not temping either! :j

    I got lots of MSE bargains in Mr Ts last night, all the oils were on reduced to clear so got lots of litres for cheap, and a half price pork joint which I cooked overnight in the slow cooker. Mmm pulled pork adventures :)

    Also managed a pair of converse suede basketball boots for £35 delivered as the last pair split. And some half price unused reusable nappies, hurrah.

    Good going on the MSE bargains! I can't wait until we've moved and I live a minute walk from Mr A. Perfect excuse to be there on time for sticker-o-clock ;)

    Did you get the cheap converse from the Office sale? I was eyeing up some pairs on there then remembered I don't actually wear converse.. but lots of swirly Martins for you Lara!! :money::money::money:

    Did you have a good time out Wendz? :)

    Spent this morning at work looking for new survey sites. I've found two that look decent, one with a handy app but a high payout to Paypal ($50 - but you can do things like video views etc to earn extra) the other has a lower one of £15.10 to Paypal. Also found a browser add on that pays you for searching with no limit for cashout. So even if you've just earnt 10p you can transfer it to Paypal. If anyones interested let me know and I'll PM you links (none referrals)

    No I got these ones from Soletrader - not somewhere I've shopped before. I've also been making good use of my student discount before I officially expire :)

    I'm on a roll today - Natbeast bank compensated us £20 for giving us the runaround trying to open an additional account. It did take 5 phonecalls, 1 branch visit and a still-to-be-posted letter but much better than a poke in the eye!

    Would love it if you'd PM me Cinny, refer away if it's at all possible.

    Cool trainers Lara! :cool: I'm not tempted... I'm *not* tempted! :p

    Feeling a bit bored and restless today. Can't go anywhere though as feel like I've been kicked in the pelvis so driving won't be fun and walking's a disaster! Ah well... will find something to do! :o

    Dinah, laughed a lot at your update on FB yesterday about Gracie licking the dishwasher! What a funny little girl you have! :)

    How long till babies due date Birdie?

    That made me laugh about Grace too, she is too cute!

    Poppy made OH and I laugh yesterday as I was talking to OH about his hospital appointment and she was sat on my lap and she just looked at me and said 'mummy talk to me'. Think she was getting jealous of my lack of attention hehe.
