  • I like nice hangers as well..i have a few padded ones, but that's about it..sounds like a great idea.

    Afternoon, I'm back, with nice hangers (well, wooden ones from TJ Hughes, three for £1), lovely tidy wardrobes and tidy socks! The rolling tights trick seems to have worked, thanks Bob :)

    So, tomorrow I just need to hoover in preparation for the parents turning up to make a mess, and take some of the nice tidy clothes out again to pack for the weekend. Can't believe it's Tuesday, where did the weekend go?

    Edit - I just remembered, when I was in town, that it's my dad's birthday in a couple of weeks, how inconsiderate! :rotfl:

    Good morning! Today I am mostly not doing very much - feels very strange though.. actually I feel a bit odd and restless, dunno why :confused:

    Anyway, I just need to do the dishes, run the hoover round and make some dinner for the weary travellers. Other than that, just some surveys that have come in (I actually did a Ciao one worth £4 yesterday :eek:), and a bit of Spanish reading.

    Hiya... you got a ciao survey worth £4??? Wow! And well done on all this tidying - no wonder you feel restless, when you're on a roll and you've done almost everything, it can feel a bit weird, can't it!

    Hope it all goes well.

    I know, it was only a 20 minute one as well, amazed. Of course it was followed by a "this survey will take approx 30 minutes and you will be awarded with 10p" one :rolleyes:

    I forgot in that mini-list that I also need to pack - am attempting to be very streamlined and travel light as seems fitting to my new domestic goddess mode.. the four pairs of shoes spoil that somewhat though :rotfl:

    Ciao recently paid me £10 for a survey. I dont even remember doing any really long ones :confused:

    I got an invite from them this morning for a 90 minute survey, in return for a prize draw entry. I deleted that one :rotfl:

    They don't seem to make much sense, do they Spud?!

    OK, I'm more or less organised, did all I was planning to do, and parents should be here soon - so have a nice weekend everyone, see you Monday (if I don't manage to sneak on before)! x
