    Now then Singlies. I have been invited by Consumerpulse to invite 3 friends to participate. All that is needed is name, age, address and email address (all must live at different addresses).

    It is a site to enter details of your shopping (not food) or if you haven't bought anything visit the site each week and click that you haven't bought anything and you get 500pts anyway. You get 500pts for entering shopping too. Plus you get points on your birthday and for participating in a few surveys. You can get vouchers for all kinds of places and 10,000 points equals a £10 voucher. I have been doing consumerpulse for a while now and one year I managed to save up enough to be able to spend £100 on books:eek: since then I have received about £100 in B&Q and Homebase vouchers which have been used to buy paint for my home.

    So which 3 of you would like to participate? If you want to participate please PM me your details: full name, age, address and email address.

    Thanks

    Good morning everyone

    I know I'm a bit like the scarlet pimpernel at the moment :o but I'm around this weekend - yay :j

    Aside from the fact I've been away the last few weekends, one of the other reasons I have been so busy is that I have been helping to organize a charity quiz. This is on top of my normal work stuff which already takes over my life. Well the quiz was this week and was a great success...despite a few hiccups (but nothing we couldn't deal with) and we managed to raise pretty much £1000 :T I'm waiting to see if the company I work for will match it too (fingers crossed). The money is going to a local childrens hospice

    So things should be a little less frantic now it's over :cool:

    I have a lot of chores to do today to catch up and want to get them done so I can enjoy 'Singlie Day' tomorrow :D

    Hugs to all

    BW :)

    Well done BW.

    I am being a bit sloth like after all - I didn't manage at 6am start but dragged my weary body out of bed at 9am. Nipped to SW at 9.30 and found that I had lost a lb. Came home and headed straight out again to take some books back to the library and to borrow some more. Collected the remainder of my prescription, went to Mr T's and used some money off vouchers and got a few bits (fruit mainly) but I did treat myself to a large bag of maltesers.

    In sloth mode, I have checked my virtual regatta which is the Volvo ocean yacht race and was surprised to see that I had made up quite a few miles overnight. It is fab doing all this racing (no need to spend cash - although some do, plus I don't need to get wet).

    Should be doing housework but cannot be arrised.

    Happy sloth day peeps.

    Morning

    I'm already enjoying my [STRIKE]lazy [/STRIKE] chilled ;) day. :coffee: and a browse on MSE - what could be better? :D

    Mum2one - hope you are enjoying your weekend away
  • Morning,

    Happy Singlies Day :beer:

    I've had a lie in :j, and am just pottering with a cuppa myself...will start preparing my veges for the roast later, have brekkie, get dressed, check the girls and then....hmmm....maybe drive to an NT place (but can't really be bothered with driving) or come home/watch a dvd/read/sleep some more...

    It's likely to be the latter, tbh, a very lazy day. Next weekend can be the NT place :rotfl:

    Enjoy YOUR day, Singlies of MSE.

    LB xx

    P.S. "Someone" opened the tub of Xmas Qu4lity Street sweets yesterday...dreadful, eh?

    :rotfl:

    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

  • Happy Singlies Day everyone!

    I'm going to join in as I think we deserve a day of our own. Apart from raking up yet more leaves off the lawn, I have nothing planned. So, a bit of a lie in, breakfast nearly finished, new (to me) CD playing for the first time (it arrived on Thursday but I put it aside for today). New book on the kindle, ski jumping later on the tv (with a cup of tea and a mince pie and cream). Roast planned for supper.

    Hope everyone has a good day.
