Hi


Made another £60 payment to my car payment and an extra £50 to my 0% credit card
I love seeing the totals come down!


**Also won £20 on a football card at work!**
I would love to do the jumping up and down emoji but I don't know how! lol

OK, that's my little sit-down to rest my back. Time to clean the bathroom - ooooh, the glamour of my life! Think will put a bit of Whitesnake on the kitchen CD player to make wielding the Dyson feel a whole lot more fun........though cavorting around not likely to assist back recovery in any way. Hmmmm. Maybe a re-think.
Cheers all,

Not a huge Whitesnake fan - DD (age 6!) is a huge fan of AC/DC though, and frequently requests "Thunderstruck". For hoovering I prefer "I want to break free" by Queen

Well today has been my first nsd in ages. I'm starting to think about the long school holidays coming up and things I can entertain LO with that will be fun but not too expensive. I made dinner from some YS sausages I bought the other day.

If you post your list of ideas and approximate age of your child/ren we might be able to add some more ideas for your summer fun.

my lo is 4, almost 5. Things we do/plan to do:

Free
picnic at the park
scoot/bike ride county walk/promenade
crabbing
build a bug park
pool in the garden
gardening/planting
craft sessions - my lo loves craft!
local free museum
further afield museums/parks
library

free local events

camping in the garden. S'mores around the fire and stories
star gazing (depends of age and inclination!)

[STRIKE]low cost[/STRIKE]

*arcades with a couple of £s of coppers (we live near to the coast)
* local weekend cinema £1 a pop
* local outdoors swimming pool
* bowling (if offer on)
* we have several memberships to local attractions. Cost for all was a little more than single entrance then go as much as we can for the year

I can't do this here as my garden isn't big enough but I used to set up a tarpaulin on the grass at the bottom of kids slide soak it with water and let the kids skid away to their hearts content

Hi baileysBabe. I'm an EH member so was looking through their website at the activities they have planned and some look fab. My LOs are 5 and 1. I'm also planning zoo visits, cinema trip and I would like to do either a drive-in movie or outdoor movie. I have loads of ideas if anyone needs some ideas. Most r not totally MSE but I like one day out a week during the holidays.

I googled events in my area and loads came up. Some were already fully booked !!!128558;

I've updated today's list. The junk room is turning into a frog, I thought I was keeping it acheiveable by aiming to do only 15 minutes.

All preparation done for tomorrow. Planning a head to save money, no need to buy lunch and snacks on the go.

Loving the ideas for kids days out.....my LO goes to school in September, so I am taking him out of pre-school for the summer so we can spend some time together before he's not my baby any more

Today I have...
-packaged up all my eBay sales from this week - all ready to go to the post office tomorrow
- £100 switching fee from Nationwide has landed in my account
- Managed to get a partial refund of a membership I no longer need for this year
- Store cupboard dinner

Checked banks
