    Hey hon, 60% profit is better than no profit!!! :D did you do the £100 WillHill offer? :confused:
    Fab news on amazon, :T my stuff is going like hotcakes at the mo and niche stuff is usually pretty well required i'd rather buy there than brand new at extortionate prices...;) oooh speaking of which i wonder if my study books i want are on amazon... :rolleyes:
    I'm with you on the admin hon, will get my butt kicked by work if i don't get some of it done soon... guess what my task for the day is...:o

    Hi Pania
    Yes, WH is my shorthand for willhill:o I'm pleased with the 60%, it was only my 2nd bookie, and now that I understand at a gut level what people mean when they talk about doing the WR rather than trying to bust out, that will go well. 60% is loads more money than I thought I'd have a few months ago, so its good.

    So, you too on the admin, huh? I've just done a non-admin email to a cousin (oops) will now have *another* coffee, and get going. I'll check up on you too, okay? Deal. :rotfl: :A

    :rotfl: Okay! Now that my light's back on, I see yours is out - well done you! How dare you tell me to shoo off my own diary :D:D:D (still giggling at that, been too serious for the last few hours, boring....).

    I was working hard [strike]mucking about[/strike] on my emails with Stargate on in the background, and one of my fave exchanges of all time came on:
    "Don't you ever give up, Doctor Jackson?"
    "Not until I'm dead - and sometimes not even then...."

    brilliant Karma!!! Have managed to get a bit done but fax playing up grrr. and people sending me more work just to make my life hard, like a typed letter head just because i put two l's in a name instead of 1. grrr
    Hungry now so may get changed into something respectable, shoot into town for fud and then back to more boredom.... Can't trust myself with TV on, nothing gets done!!!!
    How much more you got to do? soory for telling you to shoo! :-)

    Shooing... :kisses3:

    Nice to get a break, hope it was good in town. Just got an hour's down time now, but *have* to clean the pans so I can cook immediately I finish this evening, got an extra hour's work, and then 2 phone calls I have to make. Its all going on right now (and thats good, I'm happy, a lot of it is paid work!).

    You keep going too - :mad: about the "ll" and "l", give them a mental :p

    Just thought I'd say hello! I've been in hiding for most of the past few weeks as there's just been so much going on - I get on here, answer the PMs about bingo, get as far as the Feb challenge and realise an hour has passed and I've got other things to do! So I've just caught up with you, and haven't you been busy?!

    You're doing fab to declutter so much stuff - that's my priority as soon as I move (which we've just found out may be within the week) as I'm just not physically able to do much right now, so going to be moving tons of junk with me to sort out later. All tips appreciated!

    Anyway, take care!

    Panda! Hi!!! :wave: I've been wondering where you were! But there's no way I'm going to be bugging a heavily pregnant lady to write to me/on my diary - 20 days now? And you're moving within the week? :eek: Keep your feet up, just move around enough so that your circulation isn't threatened! :o

    Yes, the forum is getting bigger and bigger, isn't it? I've started to keep regular watch on user totals, and they're definitely heading upwards, good in one way, and not in another....

    Anyway - yes, I have been busy! It always feels like I'm not working hard enough (its all those computer games, the ones I don't mention....). Since you posted, what have I done, for instance?
    - played through one bingo site, didn't get anything.
    - checked my first m.b. at willhill, it was dicky matching at bf, if I win at bf I think this first little one will only just above breakeven - lesson 47, go for amounts that are *way* above what you need.
    - checked online banking at my normal bank and my m.b. bank.
    - cancelled two subs I did for the cashback.
    - just soaked and cooked some dried peas (I can get into the habit of buying dried stuff- vegetarian here- and not using it, so this is DFW on several counts - babysteps!).
    - did a survey last night, after all my wittering about surveys, but it was a lightspeed one, which I'd said I'd still do, I'm nearly up to £15 amazon vouchers on there, so thats good.

    However, I may have to just focus on willhill over the coming week - the cost of my dfw focus is that I live in a complete slum, and I have a friend coming to stay next week - and although she lives in Brixton, her place is gorgeous, really lovely, and she's an artist as well. I can't do anything about the naff central heating etc, but I can give the place a clean. And my admin is still way behind what it should be.

    Take care - I'll watch for your diary, about the move and the baby - lots of positive vibes to you.

    KC I bet you don't live in a complete slum at all, and even if you did, your friend is coming to see you, not examine your house! :)

    Well done on getting things done...I find I have days when I'm really productive, and days where I do nothing at all.

    With you on the soaking though, I never remember to do it, and then I end up having to make something completely different.

    erm yep... 3rd doing nothing at all day coming up for me....

    the bad thing is if i got my head down to it i could finish my work in 3 hours and then have the rest of the day, procrastinating really is a bad thing....

    don't worry about your house karma, your friend wouldn't be a friend if she judged you on that....xxx
