    Hello all ... I've had a lovely day, I met my friend and we went for a lovely walk down through the woods and down by the quay which took about an hour and a half and then we went back to hers for a scrummy roast dinner :D:D

    Ds came home about an hour ago and his father and I managed a civil amicable conversation for about 10 minutes which is almost unheard of for us :T :T It was partly because his g/f wasn't with him, he's always better towards me when she's not around :rolleyes: He also gave me a mothers day present and card from ds which again was very unexpected from him :D

    Today I've spent £4.00 on bits in tesco for packed lunches and £2.00 on drinks when we went for a walk. I haven't made anything towards the feb challenge yet today though and no other ebay bits have gone yet :rolleyes:

    Back home, we survived the first day back :D I've posted the parcel and rung up about the buildings insurance and they said it may be a mix-up and I may not owe the money :T :T That could save me having to find an extra £140 :D:D


    I have had an email from someone whos parcel I posted last week to say she hasn't received it yet :confused: hoping it turns up as it was £16 :mad:
