Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's BINGO DAY!!! :T:j:T:j:T:j:T:j

PMA today, especially as I did the advance booking that peeps were talking about and it's sooo much easier and far less tedious than what I was doing! :rolleyes:

Good luck everyone, let the games begin! :T

Hi Bails, we're in the Country in the stables again, but my 'chat' isn't working even after logging out and back in. GOOD LUCK! Hope we'll have cause for celebrations later. :beer:

Frugal adoptions sound fine to me marru:D and you wouldn't even have to wash up after the meal as we a have a dishwasher for that, but you could bring along some shortbread with you just for scientific frugal purposes only;)

Managed to fall asleep in chair after work and a couple of hours digging and now wide awake at almost 2am:rolleyes:

Ooh even better. That is a deal. I should warn you that it is bogof as a adoptee monkey (alias DD) would come as part of the deal. She would be very easily entertained with the frugal pony.

Bails hasn't had the pleasure of meeting DD as I decided to give her a "soft landing" and not scare away immediately .

See you all at Stables.

That sounds like my kind of day! Can we have a tuck shop with kettle, table & chairs next door to the tackroom? Meet you all there for a cuppa now I know how to make the chat box work! Doh! :rotfl:

I'm wondering if there's a better way we can combine our collective resources ie time and brains to earn a guaranteed income rather than relying on lady luck? Only problem is it would be taxable, but I'm sure our life spans would increase if we stopped participating in bingo!

*tiny frugal celebration* today is the first day it's warm enough here for a summer skirt and no tights. Hooray. Hopefully no need to buy new tights now until autumn, and less washing (fewer, lighter clothes!) as warm weather rolls in.

Whitewing - there are huge hail stones here just now. I think I will keep my jacket on for a bit longer.

lol, I was thinking something similar when I took the bold step of leaving my coat behind to go to lectures this morning... felt a bit silly when it started to rain! *sigh*

Whitewing; wow!! do you live in the sahara or such like?!?!?!? it was hail stoning huge old stones here today, I went out in my mac today and was soaked the whole way through!!! freezing!!!
This week I have been getting ready and practising for starting the challenge this wednesday, it's going to be hard but I like a good challenge. I have already made some changes so hopefully it's not going to be too bad (famous last words!!) we will forget about the grape vines though (my dm still hasn't recovered, she was still laughing when I spoke to her yesterday, there's support for ya!!).
How is eveyone doing on the bingo? no joy for me today but still have til midnight, must remember the matches to keep my eyes open! you never know though. Well done Nyk for the £10.00 win.
