    Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes, they've made my day, especially as i am having a quiet day at home.

    Liz_uk, well done on the sale of your concert tickets, it does feel good to pay things off.

    Afternoon folks

    The weather has been crappy in Sussex too. Bank Holiday weekend = rain!

    Today I:
    * have done nothing!
    * spent nothing
    * have done pigsback clicks
    * used 'free' texts to contact chums
    * haven't turned the lights on or the heating!
    * must get on and have a tidy up in lounge and kitchen - cos environmental health may have something to say!

    :heartpuls CG :heartpuls
    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    Not much as I am not well, freezing cold, earache and everything smells and tastes of vinegar!! Yeuch!

    I have bought reduced fruit and veg in Asda, and thats about it! I shall do my piggy clicks and comps and check banking and might check for further mystery shops. May check out free bingo, not done that in ages and could do with some wins *everything crossed* lol.
  • :mad: Bloody annoyed today...one of my creditors, despite being asked by the CCCs to freeze interest on my account, are still continuing to add it:mad: I'm on a DMP with the CCCs which I opted for over bankruptcy even though the CCCs recommended bankruptcy but sometimes I wonder if I'm hitting my head against a brick wall:wall::confused: and fighting a losing battle:rolleyes:

    Right apart from that:

    I've had a NSD:A

    I had free lunch at school and dinner will be from items from storecupboard/fridge/freezer:T
    Line dried washing today.....lovely weather here in Scotland:j :T

    Used immerser for hot water but not put heating on:A

    Checked online banking...in the black at moment but after all my DDs come off this week I'll be getting closer to the red than I would like:eek: :o

    Pity about the weather, Andan, but hopefully by next weekend it will be dry and warm:T

  • Happy Birthday Andan :j

    Hope everyone has had a good day, despite or because of weather - seems to depend where you are!

    Had a LSD ( seen to have more of those than NSD, usually because of chln needing things!)

    Off to enjoy some HM choc chip cookies that DS1 has made whilst there are any left.

    Have a good rest of the day everyone :T
    Getting there...slowly! :D

    GC : must do better
    NSD: very rare

    No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.
