Still not put my stuff back on amazon after the break I had last month. However, after various bits - mystery shopping, change jar, found from ages ago (uh, being used as a bookmark!), and no taxi after work on Friday night, gives a subtotal of £57.02 (I think) and a new running total of £451.05! Off to update the sig.2023: the year I get to buy a car0

I did 28 hours in total over three days and I'm going to get paid in OH's wages next week so I shall add that to my total next week
