Thanks SMlSave you get used to the travelling and I dont normally have to do more than a couple of hours a day. This week has just been really bad but at least I could chill out today. Good luck for your DH and his travelling I would recommend SatNav with trafic alerts it saves loads of time and it is nice to know roughly when you are going to arrive in case you are late.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Really nice weekend golf both days and played quite well so that was a bonus. Going to have a nice week all local appointments so not too much driving. Need to get a load of appointments made and write my sales reports have been meaning to do them for far too long.
Bank account not looking very good but our joint one is working well and all DD's have gone out fine.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Had a nice work trip to East Sussex yesterday but I did get back too late to do Bodypump which was a real shame but work sometimes have to come first. Got two emails from William Hill yesterday offering bet £25 and get a free £25 bet. Nice that should net about £40sih so will get on with that one. MB has been really slow and I have not signed up to any new accounts for ages.
Meeting a friend today for lunch but it is also work so that cannot be bad. Just need to find out what time we are meeting.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Just had to tell you that I found out I had only had 14 days leave out of my 21 so just booked a 6 day break to see my uncle in Spain. Saturday to Thursday hand luggage only for £78 which I think is cheap. Cannot wait to go so nice to have something to look forward to.
Just waiting to deposit another £10 in to William Hill then I can do the £25 bet and get £25 free. Should be good for tonights matches.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Another Holiday!!!!!!! Only Kidding!
Would love a bit of Sunshine at the moment, especially with this lovely Summer we have had.......0 -
Yes I know but its so cheap and I am staying with my uncle so no hotel cost.....
DId quite well on MB last night, Will Hill gave us both £5 free bet on the correct score and it was not really worth laying it. DH picked 3-3 and 3-2 so we were lucky Arsenal did their stuff and we got a return of £24 plus two free £25 bets. Did route for 3-3 as that would have given us £75. Not got much money in Betfair nor my current account so might struggle to place 3 x £25 snr bets plus £10 from Ladbrokes, hope to get some on the golf in the States tomorrow.
Actually those bets will pay for the trip to Spain not bad.
My appointment with the Optician has just been cancelled and then a text to cancel my other work appointment. Guess it is a day at home and to catch up. Not bad.
Mortgage payment has gone out today £2581 is really nice but it could have been £2000 if we hadn't lowered the payments. Still it is more comfortable and I am happy with still being mortgage free by April 2010.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Pretty good day at work went to Pilates and out for lunch with a friend which was also work. A forum I have been working hard to set up has had a set back in as much as the other person who is helping me now cannot make the date so I have to cancel and reschedule such a pain. Need to tell everyone as well.
Just got myself a work trip to Bath and I am going to take my neighbour next Friday. A bit of work and then an afternoon shopping sounds like heaven to me.
Playing golf tomorrow and then sorting the garden out Sunday. Needs a good tidy up really.
Off to HQ Monday night so better get a hotel booked.Save £12k in 25 No 49
