Practice makes perfect. I find it easier doing lighter colours and less is more when it comes to amount on the brush. Better to do 3 coats of thin layers then 2 thick ones. 

Yes that's true.

Agreed! Although I have opted for a very dark indigo this time around which is unusual for me but I fancied a change

You have reminded me that we have some more stuff to sell on Ebay. Must get round to listing it.

You definitely should! I was going to just send this stuff to charity but thought I'd list it first in case there were any takers

I tend to send my stuff to charity and have a Gift Aid number for a local charity shop. They sent me an email to thank me for the £118 they’d made from my donations. £118 😱

You're just hurtling towards thats £3k mark 😳 👏🏾. So glad that you sent the payment to right place, but I can well imagine the anxiety of not knowing even though you'd probably double or triple checked it before you sent it. Well that's how my brain works anyways lol. 

That's really cool and impressive with your gift aid @Sun_Addict 👍🏾.

Good morning everyone. It’s my Friday today as I’m off tomorrow for that lovely relaxing spa day 🙌 I can’t wait!

@Keedie I can’t tell you how many times I checked it and was so nervous transferring such an amount…. Once I thought about it later (I’m definitely a reflector) I realised I should have sent an initial £1 to test it and then sent the rest once confirmed. A lesson there I think!

So today’s PAD was £5 to CC7. Another NSD for me ahead of a spendy few days planned. We are out on Saturday but then I should have a few more NSD’s before we go out for dinner on Valentines Day. We don’t usually celebrate but a local independent pub is doing a nice set menu with some entertainment, plus hubby is actually off work this year so we thought we would make the most of it.

Nothing available to cash out on Prolific when I checked this morning, I have £30+ pending now so it’ll be nice when they finally get approved!

Have a great day all

Forgot to add… 4 items now sold on Vinted. £25 made so far so I’m pleased I took the time to list the stuff.

Your debt is actually flying down LMD.
On the subject of Vinted one of my favourite work colleagues walked round to show us her new Vinted purchase. A very new looking gilet that she bought for £3.75. She wasn’t sure whether it was a body warmer or a gilet but we agreed that gilet sounded posher! So for the happy sellers there are equally happy buyers out there

I do hope I have happy buyers @Antomac I would hate to think someone felt I had mis-sold anything   The gilet sounds like a bargain to me!  I try not to browse for things at the moment whilst I am paying down the debt and only buying what I need... but I will definitely be browsing after 26th May!

Happy Friday everyone! I’m up early today as it’s Spa day and we are off to Nottingham.  I’m quite excited as we were supposed to be doing this before Covid hit so it’s long overdue

Today won’t be a NSD, so I have sent £3 to the credit card. I can colour another square on my CC chart this morning and I’ve worked out I’m now using just 4.6% of my available credit.  It’s remarkable to think how much I’ve paid off!

Prolific is still taking its time to approve anything. Yesterday was a very slow day for me, I managed a 1 min survey for pence and then I managed to get on a £5 for 5 mins study but it wouldn’t load and I had to cancel as the researcher didn’t respond to my message. Oh well. Still £30 pending there.

Another £10 sale on Vinted too which I will post on my way out this morning.  I still have more stuff to list which I will probably do on Sunday as I have a busy few days ahead.

Have a great day!
