    Well done Shez and Weeping River! What a terrific result!

    I don't remember goodie bags when I took part some years ago, before I got ill, you do deserve them though! :A go put your feet up now if you can.
    Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.

    Afternoon

    Been a bit out of the loop lately owing to laptop problems. Got that mostly sorted now - seems I had too many photos on here:rolleyes:

    Had a very good week. Got a payrise for my side business with the possibility of more people wanting to hire me:T And got my first contract for voice over work:j So hoping things will carry on there so I can work full time from home.

    Had a quote for the windows:eek: Much more than I was expecting. But have more people coming to quote me. Going to check out bathrooms tomorrow.

    Was going to make a mississippi mud cake today, but went to the cupboard - no caster sugar, so that's on hold until I've been to the shops tomorrow.

    Dinner tonight is salmon en croute - something leftover from Christmas:p Also a slice of cake from the freezer owing to the lack of home baking this afternoon.

    Topped up my phone this week, first time in over two months, so that's another £10 pin money as I used a Boots voucher. Very pleased with how I've cut back on texting meaning I have to top up less often.

    Must get petrol tomorrow and off strawberry picking at the local farm this week to make jam.

    Hope everyone's ok

    Bargain Rzl: I did beat my last training time by 3 mins (35min) - but I would have liked to have come in just under 30mins - but matters not!!

    and this is the banner DH & Kids made!! (my mum always liked to shove a bow in my hair!)
