Right, I really should get off the sofa and have a shower :rolleyes:
First though I'm going to write a list of bits I need to get done this week ....

• Buy dads present
• Send ex-mil birthday card (belated)
• post ebay stuff
• post other bits
• return library books
• call tax credits
• pay in bags of 1ps / 2ps / 5ps at the bank
• pay council tax
• pay next bill
• pay minimum payment on cc
• list more stuff on ebay
• sit down and work out how to do matched betting
• post ms receipts
• do electricity meter reading and submit online
• speak to landlord re buildings insurance
• visit my grandparents
• clean the car

I know I've got loads more bits to add to the list but I can't think at the moment. It does look like quite a lot but most of the things are small easy btis to do, I just need to get on with them :rolleyes:

Just sold something on a buy-it-now for £6.99 :beer: It was a top that I bought about a year ago for £7 and its sat in my wardrobe for a year, so at least I got my money back on it

I've also managed to get the home phone working again, its had no dialling tone for about a week. I finally went through tonnes of paperwork and found the instruction manual, went through all the trouleshooting things, got very annoyed with it all, then noticed the adaptor thingy wasn't plugged in properly All fixed now though

The £6.99 and the £16 from ebay yesterday will go towards the next account which is currently £180 :eek: I have other bits to get on ebay today and also have one more item on there as a buy-it-now at £17 which hopefully will sell :rolleyes:

Hi BB

Isn't there interest on you rnext account? Would it be better to pay it off with your mortgage overpayments money then build that back up so that you don't pay interest on that Next account? Or has the mortgage money aready been paid off?

Morning bbam . Lovely day here. Sorry to read about your friend. Good that you can keep an eye on her as you are off this week. Just wondered if you have stopped doing Aqua (sp!) because I've not seen you mention it lately ?
Have a good day. X El

KM ... you're right about the interest on it, I have some more money in my savings account for emergencies, I think I will pay it off with that and then pay it back into my savings

Elidee ... I haven't done much aqa'ing for a bit, I really will try and do some this week I just find it so much more interesting reading threads and catching up with stuff on mse in the evenings, eather than having to think about aqa

I've just got back, we've been round to visit my friend again and we went for a walk down the beach. She's been told she should start walking but if she feels dizzy etc she needs to stop. Well we walked through a wooded bit to get to the beach and told ds we were going gruffalo hunting which he loved

Unfortunately we didn't find any gruffalos today :rolleyes: so we sat on the beach for a bit then went to the cafe for lunch (£9 :eek:) then headed back. Ds is now playing happily with his trains as all the walking has worn him out and I am planning on a lazy sunday afternoon I am going to have half an hour on here then alternate with half hour bursts of activity
