    Happy Birthday to Miss Lily!! :bdaycake: Love the cake BTW jakes-mum. :)

    Sue, I bought new things for DD from 'the big man'. So the stuff I had, which came too late in the delayed suitcase, is going to be used as her birthday present. :D

    Worked out the credit card debt.... :eek: what a plonker!! :mad: Oh well, I will be pushing to get it down and gone as soon as poss!! ;)

    I have been good and potting away. I had 2 x £2 coins the other day in change. I gave one to DD as spending money because she is going on the Big Brownie Holiday at Butlins this weekend and I potted the other one! :D

    After reading a book on holiday called Run Fat B**** Run lol, I have done two walks this week. I've mapped out a 3 1/2 mile walk which over time, will eventually become a running route! :T My boss (who lives round the corner from me) came with me last night. It was really good fun. :T

    Have a great Friday and weekend peeps! :D
    Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!
