You're right about the boat trips - you've got to do these things while you're there - that was the approach we took to America, as we're unlikely to revisit some of those places.
Brilliant about Elna/Janome - companies who provide that sort of support are fantastic.greent said:Fab service!
I've just done an hour in the garden - got to weed *around* the area I'm going to use, of course, botherand then discovered at the end it was Flying Ant Day round here. Yuck. Relaxing now, and I'll do something later, even just tidying up on the computer, hunting out destination ports.
2023: the year I get to buy a car3 -
Morning all
Juggling a few balls this morning, all doing well:
- all the news channels
- Happy Wheel - balance is currently at £13.23, £5 of which was my seeding money. Carrying on, 24p today, for instance.
- quick convo with sister, and we've bought the tickets for Titanic Belfast, after checking docking and departure times. Timing is very tight at the museum, tickets are for every 10 minutes, and the interesting thing is that before 10am there's a £5 reduction, making them a little bit cheaper than Senior concessions, odd, but we'll take it.
- made the decision not to go any further right now with the sewing machine - the complexity for a non-sewer, with so much going on, just boggles my brain. I *am* going to email Elna/Janome again, asking if silicone oil for double glazing counts as sewing machine oil - a *lot* of stuff on the internet is really misleading.
- later on: dw must get going, then planting (finally!) and destination research, which kind of got abandoned. Much more important to do that than learn the sewing machine.
- possibly, find the sarong I was going to make into a nightie, and see if there's anything I can do.2023: the year I get to buy a car3 -
Finding the sarong is a step in the right direction in any case KC - it's one less barrier to overcome!Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days

You're right, madvix!
I've been doing lots of bitty things: started to collect outer wear (two sets of everything - stuff can blow off in a gale!), getting the recycling into the bin and packaging seen to, cleaning the sink, getting the sarong(and my word, there's a lot of material
) bit of a walk, no one thing, but all in the right direction.

Excellent work there! Happy wheel dosh is building up nicely 😊 Do you just do the one casino or have you got a round of them? Most of them have a free game each day I think if you ever wanted to add a few more once you've built up a bit. I'm happy to suggest some of the ones that are straightforward and less hassle if you ever want to add some.
Enjoy the rest of your day!4 -

Today: a bit of easy weeding in the morning, destination research in the early afternoon, then planting later on. If I don't get it done today or tomorrow, it'll be too late2023: the year I get to buy a car2

Thank you! I don't mind depositing first, I'm just not ready to place bets and lay them, follow the system that you use, my head just won't do it. After the weekend would be wonderful, much appreciated - and I hope yours is lovely, with chickens and friends and the beginnings of your harvest2023: the year I get to buy a car3

Just watch out though KC, if you're planning on proper MBing - if you open accounts with bookies for casino stuff it might invalidate your ability to do the MB offers as most of them involve sign-up bonuses (e.g. I *know* PP has a free to play game every day but it's the big one on Team Profit's MB thing as you can make a lot from it, so I haven't signed up as one day I'll actually get round to doing that sign up (maybe!) and want the free cash from it).Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days
