    Great game of football last night, disappointing result though. This morning I have blitzed upstairs including ds bedroom, several loads of washing to now get through :) I need to pop to Sainsburys now, I have a coupon that needs using too that will give me £5 off. At lunchtime I'm going to a family bbq, hoping the nice weather holds.

    Morning all, another weekend rolls around, been a busy one this week but made it now. Last night I did a mystery shop so another £10 to add to the holiday pot. This weekend I have absolutely nothing planned so am hoping the forecast storms stay away long enough for me to tidy the garden before the winter. I also have the usual housework stuff to do and football to watch, but other than that am looking forward to just chilling out.

    Morning all, a very wet one here today so other than food shopping it will be an indoor kinda day. I planned to check the banking and then blitz my wardrobe - putting my summer stuff away and getting out the autumn/winter clothes. Well I've already done all of that so not sure what else today holds in store for me :)

    I do have a bag full of stuff to go on Vinted so will get that on there, I need to get Mums birthday present ready for next week but other than that the day is mine!
