Good luck EO! I don't have any advice but crossing fingers for you.

My DFW bits...
- have 2 MS to do today, one is at a DIY store so going to use the small purchase amount allowed towards some paint for our shed, so that'll save some money off what I was going to buy anyway (and the fee should cover most of the rest!)
- eBay auctions finished at £43.36 which is brill, way more than I expected, and means I've hit my target already for the make £10 a day challenge this month! Gonna keep going now... curious to see how much I can make... going to aim for £500 now I think.
- no piggy click today but did look
- going to pay the elec bill in a minute and call up about the problem with the gas bill again

Will update again later. So far so good! Enjoy the weekend everyone!

Well done OliveOyle on your e bay proceeds :T :T I've been on amazon but e bay terrifies me:eek:

Klane, £500 is definately doable - go for it, you have already succeeded in the challenge for this month anyway:T :T :T

Got most of my jobs done now so will have some chilling out time in garden once I have mopped kitchen and bathroom floors:D

Thanks SM, but it was for a car

Admittedly I'd hoped for £500 so was chuffed to get £720, but I was very honest about its flaws, so I think I was trusted. I had 32 watchers and 15 bids :rotfl: If I get £70 for the rest of the month on e-bay I'll be surprised :rotfl:

Hello everyone

A wonderful day here after a terrific storm last night!

So far I have

• washed at 30 and hung out to dry
• had storecupboard lunch
• planned meal for tonight so have every thing already
• not been anywhere so haven't spent anything ( but have cut grass and cleaned)
• checked online bank
• got a £10 gift vouncher in post after I found something unpleasant in a sandwich (buying it wasn't DFW but aftermath hasn't been bad because I got a bunch of flowers when I took it back!!)

Next I will

• make bread in BM
• cook meal as planned
• sort DS's clothes and put on freecycle
• work out budget for next few weeks - tricky as will include half term and they always mean I spend more
• put clothes in washer on timer to hang out bright and early tomorrow
• find some time to read some of my library book

Enjoy the sunshine!!
