    That's on my "to do" list as well. Find some easy & quick recipes that can be made at a moments notice, or when I get the notion of having my cake and eating it :rotfl: Yummy.

    Great "free" money with the cards - you do know it comes in 3's :D Just remember your friends, if its a big win ;)

    And Well Done :T on the o/p this morning. Can I ask, how you came to that odd figure :eek:
    Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:

    I have a special file of 'go to' recipes. :)

    Don't, worry, if/when I get a big win I will remember my friends. :)

    I came about the odd figure because I looked at my mortgage balance and just paid off the large oddment. It will be odd again today though as interest will have been added.

    I had a lay in today... Didn't get my lazy backside out of bed until after 10-this is rare for me.
    I have sorted animals out and hung the washing out.
    I need to write out my 'to do' list.

    Today I have finally made a start with listing. :) aiming to have half a dozen items up by the end of the day.
    I still have another £195 to raise if I am to meet my end of month target.

    Go you! Now I'm kicking myself for being lazy, though I blame Mrs SJ (not in ear shot obviously). Mrs SJ takes the pictures and I then do the listings, and as no pictures where taken..........

    Not feeling well today. Went back to bed after work for a few hours.
    The good news is that my car passed its MOT today, the bad news is that I'm now £35 lighter.
