    :wave: doing good so far! Have got my mitts on the full freebie from football pools, I was lucky that the first card that came up on TT contained a sure thing according to the list on here, plus I'm finishing off the English accounts, very little to do now.

    Hungry tho! Might have to have an early lunch, since I got up so early.

    Hi Bob! I'm a bit worried for you, looking at the timestamp of that post. Off to find your thread, I know you've been going through it.

    To actually reply to your post: I *will*, I *will* - I took it v easy yesterday, there's a bit of adding up left, a bit of sorting and printing of French stuff, but basically its done! I have to watch it now, because its at this kind of stage that I leave it and then rush at the end, so I repeat, I *will* finish it this week.

    The other thing is the trading - yes, I have to make two trades in the next two days to get that tradefair money. But also, the recession is really biting - all these job losses in the last few days, *I'd* forgotten what a recession is like. I don't think I'll get through the recession in one piece unless I get another regular stream of income, the one I've got now is not going to cut it.

    I don't feel nearly as gloomy as that sounds. The universe has given me a plentiful source, and I just need to reach out and take it. So thats the plan this morning.

    Thanks! I actually fell prey to my usual set of beliefs - "oh, it won't work this time/for me". And as happens 4 times out of 5, it did happen the way my system said it would! 40/46/76 points (cumulative pounds sterling) there for the taking, except I didn't take them :( What I have to do, to be honest, is talk out loud *all* the time. It sounds a bit mad, but at least there's no one in the house to hear me slowly going crackers. And you know I'm crackers anyway, so thats all right.

    I have another window of opportunity this afternoon, and another one this morning (for the tradefair money). And if I don't do the qualifying trades on my system, I'll just do them anyway, and lose maybe 50% of the money. But I made money on the Natwest offer, there's no reason I can't make money on this one.

    I'm exhausted now! Off to boil the kettle, then check out threads.

    Morning Karmacat,

    how are the head aches ? I'm lucky enough not to suffer often but I usually find that some lavender oil massaged into the temples helps.

    They could be as a result of all that very complicated sounding betting etc that you do, I just cant seem to get me brain around it :o .

    Have a good day & remember to take regular breaks from hovering in front of the screen ;)

    Hi Lula

    Thanks - yes, no headache this morning, hadn't thought of lavender oil, I must say, that could be a good one.

    The betting stuff - nope, I hadn't even been looking for longer than ten minutes over the past few days, just been looking *fairly* intently now, and no headache, tho a lot of frustration, and a resolve to talk to myself out loud in future"

    I know some of the stuff I talk about sounds a bit out there, but I don't seem to be able to do my thing any other way :confused: the matched betting took me long enough to get my head around, and the basics of that are sort of straightforward compared to the trading stuff. Tho the more advanced matched betting is completely beyond me, waaaayyyy off in the distance.

    I'm going to stop hovering over the screen tho, you're right about that! I keep blathering on about a cup of tea, well, here I come :p .

    Thanks for posting - see you later.

    Hiya Bob - its a while later, admittedly .... :) hope you're okay. I'm good - I managed to go to bed at 11pm last night, and slept solidly until almost 7am, which is unheard of for me - I still don't feel "bouncy", but much, much better, I must have really needed it, as they say.

    Won't be on here much today, have got some early work to do and then off to London all day. You have a good one, if you can - other people on here too.
