Morning all sorry I have not updated for a while.
Meeting Friday went well saw the manager instead who was new and really nice. Got another appointment next month with them so really good.
Saturday Golf and Sunday Golf. Ladies beat the men which was fab and I played really well. Shame we are going into Winter really must try and keep it up.
Cannot play next Saturday as going to a friends for lunch and Sunday we have our Spa Day which I cannot wait to do.
Mortgagewise Oct payment has come out and balance is now £2160 and best of all they charged us 1p interest this month. So cool so close now.
Got a query about the pub mysteryshop I did have replied fully so hopefully that will be OK and I shall still get paid. Computer did crash while saving which did not help.
Just tried to update the MFi3 Chart as I made a mistake and we have 2 more updates. Went onto Photobucket and then a message popped up your computer is under threat do you wish to run Total Security. I remembered that was the same as I had big problems with last time so I closed the machine down and I am now running virus check on it. Scary not sure I shall be brave enough to use Photobucket again must have clicked on something to get that message come up.
Drinkswise I think I have done quite well but weightwise it is bad new. I have taken it out of my signature as I am now 84 kilo. 14 kilo more than I would like but I can see the gym work paying off so that is good. Will update my signature now.
Almost free night out tonight winetasting at our golfclub from a French Chatau we have stayed at. Then a 5am start to travel to HQ Tuesday.

Morning
End of the week and gosh has it been a long one. Feel like a need a rest and this weekend should be a nice one for that. Saturday I am going to my friends for lunch to meet her Dad and other friends and Sunday I am on my Pamper Spa Day cannot wait just what I need.
Signed up for two more bookie should net me about £50 but will need to wager a bit to get the last bit. Also Ladbroked continue with their bet £10 bet £10 next week so that's £10 this weekend and another free £10 next week.
My laptop got upgraded at HQ and now it cannot run our reports actually I cannot even get into our systems. I can log in via the PC but because the PC had its JAVA upgraded it cannot run the reports so I am a bit stuffed. Going to see a client at 11am in a town that has a lovely Long Tall Sally about 10min walk away from where I am going to be. Can I resist well time will tell. I think I can.
Need to find DH a birthday present but I have now sorted the stuff out for my niece and nephew however no point in posting it right now is there.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Yes I am proud to say I went to the shop had a look at everything fancied quite a few pieces but did not buy a thing. They had some lovely stuff in the sale but again I did not feel tempted. Felt like an :A when I walked out.
