    Well done! I've been stuck on £3 or so since the weekend, with £25 or so steadily accumulating to be reviewed

    There have been loads of studies lately haven’t there? I’ve just done 2 this evening for small amounts but it keeps adding up!

    Well, it’s safe to say the rain has finally arrived! I am pleased it’s cooled down but the dog doesn’t like to go out in the rain so I have myself another issue haha!

    Made my PAD to CC7 this morning and today will be a NSD. Yesterday turned out to be one too as our evening out was cancelled, hubby and I watched a movie at home instead.

    I am now £4 away from being able to colour another square on my chart. But as I’m leaving tomorrow afternoon to stay with family before we head to the airport, it will probably have to wait until I get back. Unless Prolific comes cash-able at some point before I go.

    Anyhoo, that’s my update today. No more bills before pay day, and I’m comfortable with my allocated spending money for holiday.

    Happy holidays.
  • Morning! I have been wide awake since 5am today, so I have been playing video games (quietly) until hubby got up. The house is clean and tidy, I am all packed for leaving after work to head to my dad's house so there was not much else to do as I had packed my reading book. 

    Made my £1 PAD to CC7 this morning, nothing available on Prolific yet and there are a fair few receipts needed before any of those pay out. I don't think today will be a NSD as I'm not sure of dinner plans, will report back if it's a NSD later. 

    I have already achieved my NSD target for the month, although we are all inclusive on the holiday so I could end up with more yet, we will see. I don't like to restrict myself on holiday and I have put money aside specifically for spending money. If I bring some back it will be a bonus :) 

    Hope you all have a lovely day, it seems a little nippy here, might even be a socks wearing day!
