  • Afternoon all! 

    I have a Zoom call Monday 90 minutes for £40, another product trial on the way, its eyebrow wax :smiley: No focus groups or anything happening although I have applied for a few. Going to try and empty the freezer completely, it's nearly empty now and we didn't really do a big food shop last month. I'm off to West Midlands Safari Park tomorrow with my brother, it's a two hour drive but I don't mind. Should be fun! Even better that it's a day off work. I have 4 holidays left to use between now and Christmas, I also have plans to go to Bath Christmas Market with my mam in December.  

    To do

    Look at finances and alter DD's 
    Try and pay Fluid or Barcs off asap!

    Sorry to let you know but Bath Christmas market is cancelled this year.

    There will still be some festive stalls and an artisan market, but you might want to have a look at the new plans to see if you still think it's worth a special trip.

    I've had a rubbish journey from work. Left asda at 5pm, picked up dippers and pizza for food. It took me 3 hours to get home due to a serious crash, someone has sadly died during this crash. I also ended up on someone farm land and my car would not go up this hill and I kept wheel spinning. I got home a few minutes ago and I've made a cuppa had a coffee and I'm going to cook all of our defrosted 38 chicken dippers for food :lol:

    @FootyFanDan it was great! I've been before a while ago, I paid £4 for animal feed and my brother fed the giraffes :lol: it cost £40 to do the safari drive through! It was reaaaally hot today though and leather seats do not go well!

    Oh looks good I’ve not been to a safari park in years. Well worth the money by the sounds of it. 
  • I would love to do a safari drive, be close up to the animals, I am pretty sure they would rip my car to bits though haha. It defo sounds like it was well worth it though :) Glad you enjoyed it
