    Evening all..
    Just went to edit sig to say that I'd got my money for the windows and it said it was too long!!...
    Another boring day here except the last couple of hours as I've had to run around like crazy...got a phone call from window people at 4.15pm asking if they could come and fit them tomorrow!!!....so had to have a clean and tidy up and find some cubby space for stuff that was hanging around in the area and then off to lidl to get some choccy biscuits as workmen always work best when filled with tea and biscuits...lol...
    apart from that nothing happening except I've booked the Zafira in next wednesday for it's MOT and then tax due by the end of the month and I'll put in on the market and see where we go from there.

    My dad's a window fitter and always appreciates coffee and bics. They worked on a conservatory a few weeks ago and the guy wouldn't even let them use the loo! All day working, weird bloke...

    What a strange bloke not letting them use the loo.I always think that if I'm ok with the workmen then they make the effort to do the job properly...I need to be ok as the work will be done in 4 stages...next job back door...
  • oo very exciting re the windows & good plan re the biccies!

    Hi taxi, bet you are looking forward to having those windows done! I am sure you will be done well before Christmas, knowing your determination!

    Hi Taxi
    here are some sites I use. Hope it helps. Not sure if I can refer you to any, but if you notice that they do do referrals give me a pm and I will send you a referral link.
    cheers

    www.lightspeedpanel.com - this is a survey site, where you get points that turn into vouchers (you choose). May not help with the cash flow, but the vouchers could be saved towards birthday/xmas or given as presents.

    www.ciao.co.uk - survey site that gives money. A bit fits and starts i.e. no surveys for a couple of weeks, then three or four the same day.


    www.mytns.com - again this is a survey site, but it pays you in points that convert into Nectar points at Sainsbury’s.

    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
