    Morning lovelies :wave: -5 degrees outside and Jack Frost has left a beautiful design on my kitchen window. Yup, winter's here! I love autumn and winter...such spectacular seasons...sigh...

    Ahem...sorry - ah yes, PADding yesterday was lower than we've recently seen due to various members hibernating. We managed £92.89 thanks to the last minute nut gatherers :rotfl: Agree with Sunshine about popping in to say hi - always nice to hear/see you xx

    £22.20 for me today. Great to see you back LMD - did you have a great time? IKWYM about post-holiday blues though :(

    I woke up early to the sad news that my brother's FIL passed away last night after a courageous battle with kidney cancer. RIP Paul x

    Hi everyone!

    I've been missing for a few days thanks to a trip to pontins (cheap as chips sun holiday for a friends big birthday, was fab :))

    Carried on PAD-ing though, just couldn't post!

    My totalled PADS since Friday (which was also payday, thank goodness!) is

    £363.76 I'm now officially under £10k on my natwest loan :j
    Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭

    Morning all...rubbish night with Tiny awake feeling grotty after his jabs yesterday. DH slept like the dead after getting a new nozzle from the sleep apnoea specialist, so he's far too perky this morning...honestly, it's like sleeping with Gonzo from the Muppets...

    Tuesday saw some hibernating bears return to PAD making a total of £463.62. Fantastic PAD Kirsty and congratulations on getting under £10K on your loan :beer:

    Welcome back Sashanut - hope holibobs were good :)Erme - sending hugs and hoping today is better for you xxx

    Clearing out the bank account in advance of DH's payday, so a biggie from me today £798.80. See you all later x

    All these people on holibobs, it's just not fair :D hope you get some rest today Dizzy, it was OH's turn to have our Tiny so I slept OK, well until the bigger one had a random cry at 5am!

    OnePoll is on £39, £1 to go to cash out and there are no surveys... ARGH!

    £4.50 to the Barclaycard today... going to aim to have paid 20% by the end of the year (so £74.95 to go!). £248.36 would mean I've paid 25%, I'd love to reach that target but not sure I can... maybe if I do some strict meal planning and think of other ideas.. I'll write it here anyway to keep it in mind, must get ebaying xx
