Well done on the voucher SW :T


By the way, Daniel Craig is an essential in my opinion

Excellent news on the voucher! I have a tendency to get enthusiastic about survey sites for a few weeks and do a flurry of them and then get disheartened at how long it takes to accrue enough points to cashout and ignore them for several months!!

I saw a headline about cash machines starting to charge (I think the one I read said 1/3rd?) but I've not actually read the details as to why it might happen (or is happening). Maybe it's to get us to use the cashback option at the tills in supermarkets and stop us all being antisocial and using the self-service options

hello ladies, I always go to a till as I don't like self service and I think they will lose their jobs if we don't.

All is well here. I woke up late but I have done some laundry, hung lodgers washing out to dry and done some dusting. I still have jobs to do:

• vacuuming
• Mopping
• and cleaning of bathrooms
• ironing.
• loads of marking:eek::eek::eek:
  

I am so happy with the long weekend. Yay. So far the weather looks bright and breezy which is great for drying.

It is looking gorgeous outside but I bet its cold.

I did lots of marking and I have plenty to do tomorrow too but this is my busiest two weeks and then I can take a more relaxed approach. I am so pleased at how much I have done.

This week is going by v quickly. So far I have spent £37 on groceries and £25 on taxi fares including medical visits.

I have just spent £8 on bargain foundation which is usually 4 times that price!

All is well and I am happy it feels as though it is almost summer.

Thank you Dolly, it was too good to resist.

OK confession time I ordered some Tritelia and Anemone purple plants for the garden total cost £8 for the summer.

As penance I have tidied the house from top to bottom and done two loads of washing and line dried them. I have also requested a rug cleaning firm to visit so they can clean the rug in my spare bedroom as the man that fit the cable in there put a muddy footprint on it ages ago. I am hoping I can get it for half price. I will put the cost on here after he visits.

I am going to rest then will have to do some marking.

Well done on all the cleaning and washing. I hope you can get a good deal on the carpet cleaning. I have thought about hiring a carpet cleaner for my living room & hall carpet which gets the most wear and being cream gets the dirtiest ! We bought the carpet before we got the puppy ! Not sure if it would be too hard for me though with my bad back.

It is only a tiny rug and it cost £30 to be scotch guarded and cleaned which I think is a rip off but at least its done. Rubbish bargain that was!

I guess then reducing the cash point payments to operators is a push towards a cashless society, as they are now rolling out the biometric debit/credit cards its only a matter of time.
