    We had a lovely time down the beach, I managed to get burnt :o:o but other than that it was great :D Spends today = €3.07 on water and a magazine and €1.50 on an ice-cream for ds :D

    We've both had our baths and ds will be off to bed fairly soon as he's knackered. I might try and get a few bits on ebay tonight :rolleyes:

    I've just been checking all my finances as they'd all got a bit messed up because I didn't have my bank card. Now I dont need to withdraw chunks of cash anymore so I can track where its all going a bit better again :rolleyes: :D Anyway, I have basically got €210 left this month, but I need to buy my sisters birthday present too. I shouldnt need any more petrol as I filled up yesterday, and I only need bread and milk etc as I went food shopping yesterday too so shouldnt need much till next week.

    I'm still umming and aahing over whether to get wii fit :o:o the sensible part of me sys I wont use it that much, the rest of me wants to see if it will help me in my fitness quest that is still severely lacking :o:o I'm waiting for them to come back into stock at john lewis as i have €50 vouchers which i can use online and earn quidco too ;):D

    Hi BenBen
    I alway religiously read your thread and was wondering do you have another date lined up with that mystery date you met last week ? Also what beach do you live near ?

    I haven't got anything lined up yet, but I will be with the friend who set us up tomorrow so I am waiting to see what the feedback from him was ;):D I live a few miles from Bournemouth but I have a beach a couple of roads away :D I am incredibly lucky, I can walk to the beach but also have the New Forest on the doorstep too :D I can't imagine ever wanting to move from here :D

    Thanks for that it is just that you talk about the beach and just wondered where you were. I live near the Sea but it is really naff and dirty so dont ever venture there. Yes you are lucky to be able to spend so much time there.

    Benben, I'm jealous too. I'd love to live near the sea :p
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Evening all, I've just completed an online focus group which earned me €20 :beer: It was really good fun, it was like chatting on msn but getting paid for it :j :j

    Other than that I have had a good day; have been msn'ing and texting cutie online guy who came round to do my broadband today, he's met someone and it all went wrong but now its all sorted again and he's all loved up, I'm dead happy for him, and hopefully we're gonna meet up again in a couple of weeks :D:D

    I've spent €1.27 on postage for ebay today and €2 on milk, padded envelope and choccy :o No feedback from my friend yet but I may text the guy and see if he wants to go to the cinema on saturday ... not too sure, I quite liked him I think but dont want him to think I'm too keen in case I decide I don't after all :o:o
