Thank youLzzyIsGod said:Your padding @jwil remains inspirational! That car loan is chucking down!
These are just after school clubs so only £2 a session. This is a choir so they are doing a Christmas performance. Now I've got over my outrage a bit (and DH is driving!) I'm looking forward to seeing it.itsthelittlethings said:Gosh it’s at times like this I’m glad I don’t have kids. All that running around to clubs. I know you want them to be well rounded but I can imagine the cost is a bit stressful.

The survey cashout has arrived so I padded that today
Little jwil is now castless, everything looks to be healing ok so that's good news. He's got to go back for another checkup in 6 weeks, and he was pleased to be told no PE before then at least.
We then went to McDs for lunch and a visit to Mr A to pick up a couple of items, so by the time we'd done that, most of the day was gone. But I'm very glad I wasn't having to juggle work as well, so it was great to have the day off.
