    Beanie, congratulations :j:j:j

    The way YG is, thats a really big deal :j

    I had to update my a/c with the new regs coming in (and actually, they paid me 50 points for that) and there's no record of when I joined, I couldn't even find a record of how many payouts I'd had.

    PP - it's three and a half weeks :j:j:j

    I *did* get out to do the little bonfire, all told it was an hour - and I wasn't exhausted afterwards, I was really chuffed. Not too smelly afterwards, because I washed my hair as well as showering (which is a real achievement in terms of energy). I'll empty the ashes today, and fill up the incinerator again with tinder (the tiny little twiglets). Very chuffed.

    Today is quite a repeat: SB, bonfire prep, scanning, digging, bit of cleaning. It's repetitive, but these are the things I need to do to get things the way I want them. I'll also make sure I get some sun on my face :)

    That was the survey that got me to payout. :j. :j.
    Like you can find no record of previous payouts.

    How ironic that it was updating your details that got you to payout :rotfl: I love that!

    Just had quite a big deal myself: for the first time in 4 - 5 years, I did some garden work in the morning :beer: : emptying the ashes, filling the incinerator ready again, and finishing disposing of the rubbish sitting on the grass. I'll go out again in an hour or so.
