Welcome on board!!!

Morning all, it is way to early for me this! Early night tonight me thinks. My DD has come out of my bank for TV Licience. £35 something so will update later Off to Mr M today with a friend who shops everyweek and spends MAX £28 a week on her, her OH and 6month old including formula milk and nappies and wipes, I want to see how she does it :rotfl: :rotfl:
Im on the internet so early it helps me not have my morning cig as im busy reading posts
Im so hoping to walk the 20min walk to Mr M today even though it is so hard work pushing a double buggy up all the hills around here, im sure the buggy weighs more than me. so it saves me 90p on bus fare but if its raining i will have no choice. I will get the bus back though from town as its all up hill from town to home. I was hoping for a NSD day BUT i need something to put on my suitcase to indentify its mine when i get it back from luggage department in Cyprus as my suitcase is bright pink!! Im so sure someone wil have the same. I might get some ribbon and tie it round the handle..cheap and i think i can get it from the market
Any ideas???

you could use part of an old rag, that would be free. Plus unlikely that someone would have used exactly the same

Hi,

My technical problems started as soon as I tried to log on to bingo. It took me over 45 mins and I missed the first tickets. BUT then I thought to try to abandon Explorer and log on using Firefox and TADA I was in and site was running smoothly and oh so quickly. So I took the opportunity to bag tickets to the next game and would you believet it? I won immediately £20.- Happy Days. I shall book next lot before going to bed. I don't want to sound greedy but £50 more and I can buy dri-bag and car bed for my old dog (not to mention that I need a new bag of food and it will be around £40.- - I know my animals get treated better than the people in this household - thank goodness DD gets 10 meals per week at nursery and 5 snacks in pre school).

Happy Bingoing

Marru

EDIT: just accidentally played through £4.80 on one game, no idea how, youhave to be SOO careful! I did luckily win a tenner though, and another £15 on a different game so I'm still quids in - £28 up at mo! :j

Well done marru and bails:j wonder if any other peeps will have a win today:rolleyes:
Won't be me cause I'm not playing:D Just having a bit of an insomniac night so came to my favourite place to pass the time away:D

bails

Me too SophiesMum, so you may as well play while you're awake! Surely our insomnia's got to be good for something

Well if you're all bingoing in the small hours, no wonder nobody is around to give me a hug.

A bit down today. The job situation is not as straightforward as it seemed. Need to go and see someone else today.

Fortunately there are beautiful blue skies.

Good Morning all. I have done my banking and realised my quidco payment has gone in Thankgod! I have to pay my rent today though
I have to tak DS to nursery for 9.15 then into town and then my young mums group (i so love that group).
So so busy day today and then off to my sisters tomorrow as she is going to wedding in scotland early saturday morning so im babysitting one of her children plus my two untill sunday where her fella will give me a lift home
I cant do the bingo i dont think because i only get 4G a month and im thinking it will take loads of my 4G just to load up the bingo never mind play it. and after i use 4G i have to pay.

Hope everyone has a nice day today, sun is shining and all

Food frief people! 3.26am???

I really did try to play bingo during the early hours but, once again, failed by falling asleep with the computer left switched on... I have claimed my morning tickets, though.

Well done Bails, 2 winners so far! :T

Weather forecast here says 20 degrees again, so I might be forced into Bingo al fresco - isn't that what wireless is for?

I've loads of posting to do, auction monies through plus a lunchtime appointment to keep, but I'll be back every hour to pick up my free tickets

Gave a good day, it looks like another scorcher!

Edited in: Food Frief! Should have read as 'GOOD GRIEF!' :rotfl:

:kisses3: Hi whitewing,
sounds complicated, hope you eventually get the right advice and a satisfactory conclusion. Try and not let it all get you down, you were just starting to get things sorted with OH job and MIL, try and stay positive.:o

Sending you hugs (dodgy looking ones:p) :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: , hope you feel happier soon.

bails

And have a big old :grouphug:from me too Whitewing, I can empathise entirely and hope your meeting today helps xx

Oh dear, today could be an interesting day, I thought I just read that Mumzy had done her baking already today, mighty impressive :rolleyes: I am tired...:rotfl:

I shall definitely be partaking in outdoor bingo this afternoon once I get back from my appointments in town. Have a lovely day everyone x
