    What happened with the tax credits sar? That's a hell of a reduction.
    Our tax credits are actually £102... but we break it down into £50 for food, £10 for petrol, £10 for Ste's lunches/spending and the last £32 is put in debt savings... :)

    Oh so that's who it was :rotfl: just kidding, yes I did thanks for thinking of us.

    We had a lovely day, the sun shone all day and it was perfect. Of couse I ended up working half of the day organising the event but there you go. The band rocked, we had 10 complaints about the noise within the first tune oops. I played a bit, so did fran. And I was as drunk as a skunk.

    I don't have any photos yet. My photographer is setting up a website for us. I'll post the link when it's done. She must have taken 1000 photos, it just went on and on. Now I know how people feel with the damned paparazi following them around:D but I can't wait to see them.

    So, it looks like we all had a fab weekend. I was thinking about you all and wish I'd been able to take your call but the band was playing around then so I stood no chance of hearing you.
    Aww I'm glad you had a good time.. sounds like loads of fun!! Can't wait to see the pics!!! :)

    I loved seeing your Blackpool photos, it looks like you all had a great time! I didn't notice the thong either until you pointed it out:rotfl:

    I'm sure you'll look back on this day and think of it as money well spent.

  • Evening.. hope everyone's days have been good.. I was so knackered earlier. We nipped into town this morning so Ste could trade in a game and we could get Ash some nappies. When we got in about 11.30 I felt so lethargic I just went to lie down and didn't get up til about 2.30.. guess the motorway driving must've taken it out of me.. My back is aching and I was getting travel sickness when Ste was driving us into and from town!! Mad! Ah well. Ste's letting me have a lie in in the morning.. well as much of a lie in as possible as they're coming to fit our new front doors tomorrow.. :D Can't wait!!

    Which nappies do you use SAr, I just ask cos I have always used pampers, cos I usually have coupons. I went to Tesco at the weekend and got some nappies from there for £3.89 and they took my voucher off to.

    I just wondered which nappies you find best value?

    PS Motorway driving really takes it out of you, especially that damned boring M6!

    Sorry, I meant to say before and didn't - but if you really feel like you don't want to work at the moment then dont! You obviously love being at home with the kids (correct me if I am wrong) and i think you could probably earn just as much at home doing things like daily clicks and matched betting etc....

    When you work you cut corners on everything, food etc...and you really do seem to be managing at the minute.

    I am different, staying at home drives me absolutely bonkers, but I admire anyone who can do what you are doing and be so upbeat about it all the time....

    Be kind to yourself!
