Morning all!!! It's a bit cold here in London...........

Cobragirl I am not certain but I think you needed to place £10 worth of bet on the GN on Sat to get the £30 from quidco on the betfair thing.

I did! My friends laughed at me because I put it all on one horse. Apparently nobody does that (?). I put the £2 "age verification" on another horse and won £6 so I only lost £6 overall. I'm going to wait a few days and query it with Quidco at least.

I guess I've done it a couple of times.

I moved from London after my degree to a studio 'cupboard' flat on Hayling Island for a year whilst my ex did his PGCE in Eastbourne. He wasn't offered a job in the Portsmouth area so we moved to Poole knowing nothing and nobody when he was offered a job here. My whole flat on Hayling (excluding the shower room) was 12 x 6 feet and was previously a storage cupboard at the back of a shop. Mad though - it had its own parking space outside which was about the same size!!! I was quite happy there for some weird reason.

I also moved to Dublin for a year in 1998 for work when I was going to be made redundant but was told I could have a contract there for 12 months, although I came home for the weekend every 6 weeks or so. That was a lonely time - I had a freezing cold, rented house 20 miles away from Dublin which was a 90 minute drive to work in term time

Not sure I'm up to all that kind of 'excitement' any more!!!!

Well I put mine on only 2 horse's and I did the match betting I didn't have a clue how it all works I did however win £50 so it wasn't all bad!

Well Done Jet! Matched betting is a mystery to me, so best for me to leave well alone! I did however have £1.40 left in my tote online account (having opened it through quidco to get cashback!) and because min. bet is £1 I put all £1.40 on Comply or Die to win - and of course it did!! So £15.40 in my bank! I've withdrawn it from the account and will look forward to getting my hands on that some time this week!

I'm trying to decide whether I can be faffed to dye my hair.

I had highlights done last Summer and then in December. They need re-doing, but I've got a few grey ones at the front which have suddenly become more prominent. Highlights don't 'catch' them all.

I've got a dye somewhere lurking in the bedroom but I'm not sure if I can be bothered.......anyone know the shelf life? I've had it ages.

Edit: just called Garnier and there's no shelf life limit to an unopened product.....can I be faffed.......

Hello chaps, hope you don't mind me butting in on your thread. I am feeling slightly smug with myself today, I have been to Matalan with my children and only spent £25.00, normally it would've been £70.00 plus and I got everything I intended to get. Looks like I might have a bit of spare cash and be able to take them swimming on Wednesday.

JET34

Good for you Lucielle I hope you and your children have a great time on Wednesday

JET34

Feeling a little !!!!!! as it's my childrens half term and I am stuck going to work!!!! well it's not the only reason but it's what's getting to me today..... See even once you become DF there's still I whole heap of other problems out to get you!!!
