    Great news with the csa, but I guess you'll only be able to celebrate when the money actually arrives though. Fingers crossed!

    Even when the money arrives there's no guarantees as his appeal hasn't gone through yet, (can take months), so it may then mean he's overpaid :rotfl::rotfl: but seeing as currently he owes £1300+ then I'll just be glad to see some of it :D Any money that comes from him goes straight in the holiday fund which will hopefully take the pressure off finding that money.

    So my plans for this weekend have had to change as ds hasn't gone to his Dads as planned - apparently his Dad and family are not well, he text ds yesterday to say, he hasn't bothered to ask me if it's okay if ds stays at home this weekend, lucky I hadn't planned a weekend away :cool:

    So this morning ds and I went to see the cruise ship we went on last year, it returned to the UK early this morning, so that was a nice trip out. Then we did the food shopping and walked the dog. This afternoon will be a very lazy one as I'm really tired this week. There will be some revision and some bets on the cup final.
