Well this is turning out to be a good day and I'm not even out of bed yet ... I've just had a reply from a local kids softplay centre, I enquired about a stall at their funday next week and they said I can have a place and they're not charging for it, they just want a raffle prize :T :TMortgage Total: £49,992/ £75,000

I've got 4 stalls booked in now (and 2 more I'm considering booking). This one is free, I have one next Saturday at a local charity funday that cost £10 (10-4pm), then one in October and one in November, both at craft fayres in a local town (£20 per stall). I think that those last two might be a bit risky as I have no idea how much I might take, but hopefully coming up to Christmas I'll be able to make the money back. I'm also seeing it as a chance to get known a bit locally

Yep, £62 made yesterday, a free booking and a Bournemouth win ... life doesn't get much better than that
So today ds is home from his Dads :j :j I have missed him a lot, it's been lovely having a week to myself and relaxing but I do miss him too. I'm picking him up from the station at lunchtime, before that I need to iron his bedding and remake his bed, close his bedroom window (been open all week and it's freezing in there - but it does smell fresh at last :rotfl:), do some food shopping and that's about it.
Last night I ordered a load of photos online and also made a collage poster of our holiday. It cost me £15 altogether but I usually never print out photos and I want some visible memories of our holiday this time Mortgage Total: £49,992/ £75,000
