My friend made a mistake on my passport form so I need to pick up another one tomorrow
. Never mind, she was very apologetic and I let her keep the wine I took :rotfl: (couldn't find flowers). The forms are so fiddly to fill in :mad:.
Hope everyone has had a great eveningFinally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

Get 2 just in case ! Sorry to hear you have to do it again, but it can’t be helped . As I said they are very archaic and not easy to follow and fill in.

Thanks Cumbria
. They are a right pain in the wotsit :mad:.
I've done my walk in a misty and waterlogged park. I've clocked up 5,180 steps, 26 floors and 28 active minutes so far today :j.
I did a PA survey first thing this morning so about £12.50 in there now once they're all approved :T. I need to top up my emergenct fund.
DH is in a meeting with the new enquiry so fingers crossed he makes a sale (or two).
I have work to do, plus laundry and tidying up the mess DH made getting ready for his meeting :eek:.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

DH did really well and the customer bought three months work, to be paid monthly and renewed for another three months if they're pleased with it :T. It will pay the mortgage for three months anyway :T.
Now we need to bring in enough work to pay for the other outgoings. A couple of our other customers are muttering about possible work, so DH just needs to reel them in. It's like fishing :rotfl:.
My steps have gone up to 11,870 now and 37 floors :j.
Plus I did two more PA surveys, I've got £15.50 now once they've been approved :beer: (I added it wrong before).
On the minus side it's been drizzling all day, but overall a very good day.

Today is grocery shopping day and as ever I will attempt to keep it to £74 with a £6 top up shop on Saturday.
The weather sounds awful out there, misty and blowing a gale :eek:.
Have a good Wednesday everyone.
