I've never been beanielou, but sobbed my way about Belsen in Germany. It's so peaceful and beautiful yet evil does exist. Hubby has been and we do plan to go one day.
Trash nothing a great site tea and you could ask for a little bit of lilly on there. Our local group is good but you seem to get the moon on a stick people. One lady is currently asking for large rattan table and chair garden set, but it must be immaculate! So tempted to reply and say local garden centre have a gorgeous one for 1500:rotfl:Finally Debt Free 24/4/20230 -

Day 28/31, Prolific... you guessed it, still £2 :cool:, Spends 22nd-31st May £27
Went into our local town yesterday and I bought myself a lipstick so a little spend has taken place.
DD heard back from the job - she didn't get it. Not to worry. It was at an Escape Room in town and she would have been in charge of 'The Asylum'. Don't know if anybody has ever been to one, but they're really good fun. We did it as a family a couple of years ago and although we didn't manage to escape we still enjoyed it and had such a laugh. The guy did say her CV stood out which was why she got an interview so that's good to know.
I've been to Asda today with Mum and bought some new pillows for everybody and a new quilt for DD but that will come from the joint account.
Apart from that we're just all chilling out. Everybody is enjoying the later nights and I'm definitely enjoying the later starts in the morning
Hope you all had a lovely Bank Hol weekend. xx0 -
Boo to the job for DD.

Enjoy the new lippie - I'm on the lookout for a new one too, but instead of just buying one after the other and none being right, I'm trying to figure out my colours and put some thought in first.
Shame about DDs job, but nice for her to get some feedback on the old CV. I did an escape room as part of my sister's hen do and it was really fun.Sealed Pot Challenge 075

Morning

Day 29/31, Prolific £0, Spends 22nd-31st May £27
I got a survey through yesterday for £4.20 which cleared within a couple of hours so I was able to cash out. Added bonus was it hit Paypal straight away as well. :T
I've a few bits to do this morning and then we're off to the van for a couple of days. By the time I come home I'll be another year older.
Wednesday is my shopping day so I've stuck to that and will do a small shop when we get there. I've got £12 worth of vouchers to use so it shouldn't be too expensive. I'll be taking the caravan money with me and fully expect that to be spent so I'll need to start saving again next month.
Is it just me or does May seem to be never ending this year.
Right, best get cracking. Have a great day everybody. xx0
