I seem to think that a certain Mr Oliver has a suet free dumpling recipe too...I've used it once in the sc and they were delicious. If I find the recipe i'll post it for you.

Afternoon...
... just got up here
... lol
No major plans this weekend. Possibly having lunch out tomorrow with friends. Otherwise, will be pottering at home and relaxing after a busy week.
Money news:
£3 OP made from a PC payment
£5 voucher received this morning in the post from a survey reward
Need to be very well behaved on the spending front this week as pay day not until after the bank holiday :doh:
Have a great weekend.

I'm new here.... and a fellow bookworm, I've really enjoyed reading through your diary. Plus you're proving that small OP all add up and make a dent in the end. This is so helpful because I'm not in a position to make grand dramatic OP but it's good to see that even the small amounts help. Well done so far, you'll be there in no time
Small OPs are better than no OPs

Aww thanks so much for your lovely post Tartan Mum! The little payments really do add up and make a difference. In fact it's quite addictive...
Please stop by anytime you like

whoops...sorry Cath! A perk of having no children I guess...
..... although looking at it another way - think of all you have gotten done in that time
I've worked out which sites I like and that I feel give me the best rewards for my time. It doesn't seem like a chore to do a little each/most days to keep them ticking over. I tend to do them whilst watching tv or listening to music and so I don't feel like it's taking up too much of my precious spare time iyswimYou do so well with a steady stream of extra income from surveys etc, well done.0 -
I think my early starts are the only reason I manage to achieve so much some days. By 9am yesterday I had already run 8 miles! I should be grateful to them really
