I decided that some fresh air would do ds good, so we wrapped up warm and went off to a local country park, it was lovely, a bit chilly but really nice and I'm glad we went. I am going to buy an annual car park pass next time we go, it costs £40 for unlimited usage for the year or £4.50 per visit otherwise. It works out at £3.30ish a month which is very good as there is loads of stuff there, they have a miniature steam railway :rolleyes: , a kiddie walk with loads of activities for them to do on the way round, several other walks of different lengths, cycle trails, bike hire, golf course, lake etc etc ... I reckon it would be a good investment for the summer holidays especially for those days when its not really hot enough for the beach. Its a great place for ds to ride his bike without having to worry about traffic, and he can run and run again without worrying about roads and stuff.

Ooh - where's that?? Moors Valley?

Just back from the hairdressers ... I no longer have long hair :eek: :eek: Its now a bob, I think I like it but I need to get used to it first :rolleyes: Part of the reason for having it done was when it was long i hate washing it, which gave me even more excuse for not doing exercise as then I'd need to wash it again

SS ... we haven't had any snow again today, living near the coast mean we hardly ever get any here

Spud ... i'll have a go but I know almost nothing about Excel , what is it you need?

Tigzem ... yep, Moors Valley! I love it over there, might be a good place for another outing?? Sorry again about the xbox, has he got one yet??

Oh yeah, I emailed John Lewis as only 2 of my 4 items I ordered had been delivered and i was asking when the rest was coming, anyway they replied today saying they are out of stock so have refunded my money ... then when I got home from the hairdressers theres a card saying someones tried to deliver a parcel .... I'm assuming thats what it is, could be something else I suppose ... they're going to redeliver monday (I'm back at work :mad: ) and if not they return to sender :rolleyes:
Right, off to do some more jobs .....

I used to take my oldest two to Moors Valley all the time when they were younger. It's a lovely place on a warm, sunny day when you've got kids that need tiring out.

Have they still got that bridge walk type thingy? Not the most technical of descriptions, I admit, but you know what I mean.:rolleyes:

benbenandme

Yeah they have but I haven't done that bit

Maybe we could arrange a dfw meet-up there for the southeners in this area??

Happy haircut :beer:

I just want to but my bank account balance at the top of a a column, list our expenditure individually underneath, and have excel calculate a running balance in the next column. I have the first 2 bits OK, but have to use a calculator to work out the running balance part.

I did have an Excel for Dummies book, but I've lost it

benbenandme

..... umm ...... err ... I did warn you I'm not much help
I know you need to highlight the bits you need added up and then I think you press the funny backwards-Z like thing, but I'm not sure exactly what to do, sorry , check with IA, I think she uses excel for her spreadsheets

ZTD

use a formula in cell B2 something like"=$A$1 - sum($A$2: A2)" and copy it down cell B3 etc...

Your bank balance goes in A1.

You can pre-copy is and use an "if" to hide it if you haven't filled in an expenditure yet.
