I think that as long as you're clear in your blog that they were sent to you for free and that your review is unbiased then take the freebies

Aye well that's the rub do they want an unbiased review? I guess if they're lobbing them out in blog land they're needing promotion but happy if its unbiased.



Hope your last day was painless? Was thinking of you. Do you have owt to go to or are fervently looking like moi?

Ooh, demo stuff at the interview! Excellent! And good for you for living the lifestyle, clearing up the communal area at TRG's.

As for the free gift of teabag growing system - serious answer, what Moomin said, make it clear its a freebie, and give genuine feedback (which you would, of course, no question!). Pippi type answer: the teabags want you, they tried to jump into your arms! Go for it :D:D

The tea bags want me.

I've honestly spitting my coffee out at that one.


brilliance.

TRG's communal area is a bit of a dumping ground tbh - its a bit sad but at least a bit tidier.

None of the bins are being used properly - but I've tidied them up that's really all I can do.

Email from local green organisation about heating boilers/insulation etc and a free home visit.

I'm taking it that the 'Brick Tax' is cunningly unveiled today by those at MSE towers and an announcement at 12pm means its a 'fool' type thing??

So in much excitement.

Whilst we didn't make it sub 3k on the cc's by the end of the month. We are now.

:j

-3488.04 - total debts
-2938.04 - total CC debts

I've paid a bit to them having been paid but need to reassess this over the month as money lands.

This months rent has gone straight to the cards though. Best gone before I spend it on flowers eh?

Two months until moving, its heading in the right direction.

Already a fair bit out on expenses this month due to trip 'sooth' - might do a mid month claim.

Learning factory hours are only 13 for this month passed, they'll land mid month.

Need to keep the grub spends down where I can too and see what else we can fathom.

:T

All in all March gets a big tick VG.

I would imagine so - the best ones I've seen so far are that Scotland will drive on the right cometh independence and that there's a new Mini Cooper T which is powered by tea

Pip's I'm gonna hold me hand up...... I thought you were playing a 'fool'.......But now that I know that it is a real opportunity, then WHOOOPDEDOOP :j:j:T:T After all, if mini's can be powered by tea...........:D:rotfl:

A somewhat befuddled Greying............. :rotfl:

Moomin I've just read it - brilliant!

Greying no sorry the whole 1st April thing went over me heid it was a genuine attempt by large retailer to reduce waste

But mini's powered by tea - that's just the biscuit.

Just finishing the 'rhubarb' thingmy. I may unleash it on blog land later. But I'll wait until after mid day lest folks think I jest when I say its not a fruit!

Our local council posted pictures of the castle this morning with its famous leaning tower "gone"! Apparently it collapsed in the night! Unfortunately it was the worst photoshop I have seen and it was "called" straight away.

I agree with the others re blog. Say it was free and give an honest opinion.

Yay to sorting out communal garden x
