    I don't know really - it may be all the talk of us getting married (benn engaged since Xmas, but I told him I will not borrow money for our wedding. I think he might have realised that I am serious, and he just came out with it this morning. I asked him again this afternoon if he was serious about it and he said yes - aliens have landed and abducted my OH:D

    No, not yet, unless it comes in todays post.... They said 10 days but I can't remember if it was working days or calendar days.... 10 calendar days is today, so I'll have to wait for the post.

    Did make £135 (before postage/fees) yesterday tho, so once I've worked out my profit, I'll put that in my sig too..... oh and got £8.19 from Amazon today :D

    Thanks for posting in my diary, I keep forgetting cuz I'm so busy reading everyone elses and doing the challenges!

    It's here...... my beautiful (if a little soggy!) cheque for £451and some pence from the Elec company. May need to use some of it to live on, as I got flat SMP this month, plus no OT from OH means our budget is ducks @r$£ tight this month.... can't wait to add it to my sig!!!! Will have to do that later tho, gotta go to Sainsburys and 'borrow' some more bubble wrap!
