    Morning, nothing worse than having to work when not feeling that great. 

    Agreed! Although work is pretty quiet so I get to drink some coffee and do some surveys whilst sat at the PC which isn't all that bad I guess.

    Popped to lidl after work but didn't have any veg boxes so walked straight back out so I wouldn't spend on things I wanted and not needed :lol:

    Feeling a little better this evening, I've made £11.33 from prolific today and £1.50 from Curious Cat. Curious cat toy can cash out after 100 points which is £1. I'll continue to do more surveys later on and cash out on everything.

    Sorry you not been well and that the house sale proceeds have been delayed again. If you are not paying interest on any of the debts now I would tackle some of the smaller ones and keep some back for emergency savings.
