      Hi hope everyone has had a good few days. i am up to 17 - very big £2 spend on Saturday. Yesterday an emergency trip to boots to buy steri strips and finger bandages after slicing myself with a craft knife hoping to avoid a trip to MIU, but it's looking slightly swollen today so i may still have to go.  Today will be a spend day as i need to order last of DH's birthday present - which i should have done yesterday when i had already sent but was feeling too sorry for myself to look properly.

      Well done bloomfelt and hope your finger will be okay - sounds painful :(, have you tried tea tree oil? I always find it very good on cut fingers etc, it stings but gets rid of the redness and swelling - unless the cut is worse than that? ...
