  • Well I survived the weekend and made it to work, don't think I've been very productive today, to many complex things for me to get my head around. :D.

    Unfortunately my holding pot took a hammering this weekend with me being sick, just ordered takeaways for dinner both nights. I know not very MSE but needs must. :eek:

    My OH wanted to help me out with the food shop because I wasn't very well, I have 6p left out of my food budget and no blooming food. :mad:. He's sacked.

    My fleabay sales went well £67.99 in total, but paypal messed up and the payments are stuck in the ether somewhere, only 2 bidders have answered my emails to cancel their payments and repay with new invoices.:mad:. This was so not my weekend.

    I managed to pot £13odds this week (the remains of my holding pot). :mad:. I'll add the fleabay money if it ever arrives.

    Early to bed for me, don't feel like taking part today, I must need wine!!!

    10p from littlies lunch change, also found £5 in the washing machine. Pocketed it and it will be potted as soon as I find the safe spot that I stashed my pot.

    Really debating just potting the £10 note. Hmmm.

    PLEASE NOTE everyone: It's time to check your new numbers as they're all done now and need changing. You'll see that there are LOADS less names and numbers now, but it's useless having folk and numbers there that no longer save with us. However, if old members return then you can still have your name added and be given a new number. Please change numbers ASAP folks. :)

    If you've already updated your No, please could you kindly do it again as I made a dreadful muck up!

    Very many thanks indeed.
    Sue x
