    So what's this dried fruit as sweetener thing?

    Can't see that going too well in my tea alas.

    Mmm soggy raisins :p

    Sorry to hear you're not feeling great today, hope it clears up soon.

    Sky Bingo is on the Sky betting site, so you might already have an account from the MBing? They've only got one room with free games about 3-4 an hour I think, was on a Mon and Thurs but could be just Mon now, they keep changing things! Only thing on there is you can only buy tickets just before the game so you have to be in front of the pc and keep an eye on it.

    Thanks, squirrel - I see now that I joined last week, but couldn't get on with it at all. If I'm compos mentis on Monday, I'll give it a go - but if I am compos mentis, I'll be working all evening, so I hope they do some daytime ones. It does mean I've missed out on any free bets they do, I suppose, I wasn't thinking when I joined last week, but hey ho. I'm not doing that with paddy power tho, they have some good offers, and I want to do them in euros to do the funding-France thingy.

    The cold has got up and running really quickly, so I think it might go really quickly too. Here's hoping!

    Hmm, yeah I've missed out on a few free bet offers due to joining associated Bingo sites, Paddypower included I think, oops. Not end of the world as I can't quite get my head round MBing - I understand the principles but don't trust myself not to mess up really!! Did log into Betfair yesterday and discovered they'd given me £25 and I'm not entirely sure what for, vague memories of some sort of promotion but didn't think I'd met requirements for it - can't complain anyway!

    :rotfl: thats nice of Betfair! I know what you mean about MBing - I get the principle, and I get enough of the practicalities to make it work for me, but it feels very hit and miss sometimes, like pa rty bets seems downright complicated the way they do things. I'm sure they're not, its just something in the way it appears to me. Ah well. I might zoom off mse and try fulfil some more wagering requirements. With chev and pania talking about New Zealand, I went over to the official immigration site, and they don't want any self employed counsellors. So I can't hide in chev's luggage, unfortunately - tho she'll probably be pleased about that :rotfl:

    Right, I've placed another qualifier at b365.... grumbler won't be happy with me, as its 0.02 match only, but I'm ill, and it needs to get done. I think I might have a cup of tea and go to bed for a while. Gentlemen Prefer Blondes is on this afternoon, I see...

    0.02 match sounds fine to me. Hope you're feeling better soon. A little time back in bed sounds like a good move.

    Still have my cold. :( Getting two on the trot like this - I think its about my change in eating habits. Eating more carbs and fewer veg to help my stomach is fine, but it *felt* like permission to go back to the bad old days of too much cows milk cheese, wheat and SUGAR, loads and loads of sugar, in chocolate and all sorts of things.

    So, from today, back to healthier ways, even tho the balance of carbs and veg has changed. Plus echinacea and vit c and a multivit.

    Debtbusting/decluttering: might see if there's any easy m.b.s to be had, and I'll certainly check where I'm up to with the recent b365 qualifier. Other than that, I think I might be moving my laptop up to my bedroom so I can watch DVDs in bed. And thats about it for today!

    Hope you all have a good one - mizmir, you sound like you're a little whirlwind at the mo, hope its still going great!
