    Welldone on the win - i'msure lucinad will be along shortly with a huge list of categories for the win.

    We were out in the Kent storms yesterday! The rain had eased off so thought it would be ok for our weekly group walk - big mistake. An hour later we returned very very wet. Lot's of local road flooding and a small leak through the roof but otherwise we got off lightly. Typical weather for the school hols. Looking at the rain radar it looks like Devon/Cornwall are getting wet today.

    still no wins to report - been rather dire this year

    We had a terrible time, lucky no damage, went to pick up some friends from Gatwick, they were delayed 2 hours. Got on the M23 near the M25 and everything came to a stop. Decided to go on towards Croydon as they live up Detling Hill. Kept moving just ended up then came up M2 flooded so headed back towards M20 got to Detling Hill and road was closed went all around the back roads and eventually got them home after 3+ hours off driving. But we will laugh about after the event, lots of places around here flooded.

    ooh, yesterday definitely not a good day to be driving - saw all the pictures of the flooded M2 and Detling Hill. There were a couple of accidents on the M2 too which didn't help.

    It's quite shocking the weather you have been having darn sarf, we were listening to the news on the radio on the way home from Holy island on Monday and it sounded really bad, we were in t shirts and the weather for the Scottish Borders was very warm.

    Tis usually us oop here who get the naff weather while the Surfeners are in glorious sunshine.

    I hope you are all coping OK ;)

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Not much to report this month. Between the nice weather enticing me outside more, having a little holiday last week and just generally not feeling the urge to comp I seem to have lost my comping-mojo a bit.

    But I did win a bird feeder this month, which has gone towards the 5-part house challenge, and a bundle of wools which I'm sure me mam'll love, so it's not all bad I guess :)

    Here's to a better June!

    Living thriftily ;) most of the time
