  • Hi Everyone,

    Just a quick update.......all well on Planet PO.......not doing much MFW at the moment - except training someone else to switc off lights, put on an extra layer etc etc!!! I guess that counts!!

    Won't be OPing any in Sept but am still on target for £2000 by the end of the year. Things will inevitably be tighter for a few months now, although the travelling i was doing was crippling, so maybe it will actually be better.

    Anyway - hope all well in the world of MFW!

    Love to all,

    PO xx

    Evening all

    Not doing to well at the moment on the MFW front - I think I need to regroup and focus again! Will empty le cochon tonight and see if there's anything doing in there! No petrol money this month (no work in august) so may be hard pressed to make a significant op.

    On the domestic front, all going well. Loving having OH here.

    Hope all well on planet MFW,

    A little time out never hurts anyone, and you can return reinvigorated. Perhaps just set a target of 1 Nov to have reviewed new situation and plan through to 5 April 2009 in the short term?

    Good idea Stuart - things are a little tight here as I am currently the only one who can work.

    November 1st sounds manageable!

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
