You were lucky to get in again next week. We cancelled ours for Wedsnesday just gone, and they can't see us now until Feb 1st. Not that I'm complaining, I hate dentists.

Hope you feel better. x

I think it's because it's a private dentist rather than NHS

Aah yes. Our lovely dentist went private and we now see another chap at the same surgery. If I could afford it I might go back to the private one, he is so lovely. but ATM, I can't justify the cost. Maybe one day....

Ooh yes, definitely not a good idea to go to the dentist if you have germs.  Must admit I am of the opinion that you shouldn't mix with anyone if you have any sort of virus/cold etc, but I know a lot don't share my view.  I used to work with people who would come to work and say "its just a cold", but what is only a cold to one person can turn into something a lot worse for others, and their "little colds", would nearly always turn into nasty chest infections for me, ever since the time I had pneumonia.  Its like the covid thing isn't it?  You just never know who you are near, if they are vunerable to these things or not.

I think a lot depends on the office in which you work. Ours very much works on the basis that if you can get out of bed then you go to work.

I would have happily stayed in bed this morning but it would most certainly have been frowned upon.

I managed to get a cash-out from Prolific so I did c-cats as well, £9 sent over to CC7 this afternoon which isn't too shabby.  I still have £10 awaiting approval for Prolific too, hopefully some will be available over the weekend.

I am starting to flag a bit now from the lack of sleep so I think a strong coffee is in order.

Yes, but the problem with companies/bosses etc having that attitude is that they could then end up with a whole office of sick people. Its like the whole covid thing isn't it? You could catch something, take it home and pass it on and it then makes someone even more ill.  Hopefully the people who go to work ill, wear a mask then to lessen the chances of infecting people. One of my pet hates was when my mum was in a nursing home and the carers would go in sick as they didn't get sick pay. It would be a cold for them, but always ended up as a really bad chest infection for my mum and other residents. ..Sorry I'll get off my soap box now. Hope you're feeling better. x

There are definitely benefits of working from home so you don’t pass it on!

Today is another NSD for me. I have nowhere to be and no plans, my PAD was £1 to CC7 and we get paid in 3 days.

We have decided on the menu for Christmas Day and I am planning to do that on my days off next week. This time of year it’s better to keep hubby away from the shops as he loses his mind and gets wound up 🙈

Not sure about what the plans are for Boxing Day yet but we won’t starve… probably leftovers

Hope you all have a good day

Morning everyone, I am sooo looking forward to the milder weather next week! I'm sick of seeing my smart meter lately with it's message of woe! 

Today will be another no spends day for me. I only need to walk the dog today and then I have housey stuff to do.  A roast chicken dinner is on the cards for this evening after the football so that will be nice.  I even have some pigs in blankets to cook

My PAD today was £4 to CC7, only a couple of days now until pay day so I have upped it a bit   I have £13+ pending approval in Prolific so it will be nice when I can get that cashed out. 

Off to get breakfast and a coffee... we have croissants this morning

Ooh croissants sound good. Settled for toast and coffee here. 2 lots as woke up early to listen to the cricket then made more when MrsMac woke up. 

Yes looking forward to milder weather too. Was merely cold yesterday instead of bitterly freezing. 

Am enjoying Prolific. Definitely a nice little earner and some interesting surveys.

We have just pottered around the pond with the dog and the footpaths and roads are lethal here.

Glad you have some P/fc to cash out soon. I have found it has really slowed down since Thursday. I suspect because most of the universities that post surveys are breaking up for Christmas, I've got 75 p sitting in my account, so could do with some more popping up.
 Hope you enjoyed your croissants and had some tasty jam on them.
