My regular saver has paid its annual interest today (£81), added to the holiday fund :beer:

Been to the tip with a load of bits and pieces that have been sat around in the garden, the side bit where the bins / recycling lives is now tidy and organised, possibly for the first time since I moved here :T :T

I've also cleared all the rubbish out of the car, I've decided to take the car to the local valeting place, it's about £15 but they do a fab job, their hoovers are so much stronger than mine and make it look like a proper job has been done rather than me just trying with my hoover. That will come out of the car maintanence fund

The rain has arrived here so not really worth venturing too far, I might spend some time trying to find some events to sell my cars at over the next couple of months. Last couple of days to take advantage of the current offer (5 free cards for Customer Club members) if anyone is interested

I have a friend coming round at about 3 to give me a quote for re-plastering the back wall of the house - might be costly as it is difficult to get to because of the conservatory.

Mr S is coming round about 5 too, he was here yesterday but didn't stay as he didn't have his work stuff with him.

Hmm well I haven't managed to do any of my cards stuff yet - instead I have coloured my hair, done my eyebrows and painted my nails

A nice chilled evening with Mr S last night, today I'm off out for the day with my bestie - no idea where or what we're going to do yet, but we need a day out

£3 profit from a small bet this morning

So I dropped ds at work, popped into town, finally changed the address on ds bank account (been meaning to do it for 2 years :eek:), paid in 2 cheques, then went to Tescos to do the food shop. I'm pootling round, filling the trolley, and I get a text message .... from the CSA to say I've got a payment of £500 on it's way to my account :eek: :eek: OMG!!! I couldn't concentrate, so I've ended up buying all sorts of random stuff and have no doubt forgotten other needed items, but never mind, I'm *finally* going to get some of the money I'm owed :j :j :j This afternoon will be spent deciding what to do with it, although I'm already 99% sure it will be going straight in the holiday fund. This would mean I have less than £1,000 left to find

Great news on the money~~ At last.

The payment is showing as pending in my banking app so should hopefully be in my account tomorrow. I've decided it is all going in the holiday fund, that will mean I only need £800ish to reach the total which will be a huge pressure off :T :T

£15 cashed out from Checkoutsmart :beer:

Today I'm meeting a friend this morning then Mr S is coming over after work. I have cleaned the hall, downstairs loo and the conservatory so far, I need to do the bathroom and then hoover through once ds has woken up. It's binmen day too so need to put them out.

£804 to find to tick off the holiday fund, hmm, where can I find some pennies :cool:
