Did you used to have a Tamogotchi?It was one of those little electronic pets that you used to have to take care of and if you didn't they got sadder and sadder until they eventually died. I used to have one and for the first few weeks, I used to make my Mam take care of it while I was at school. After that the novelty wore off and it was relegated to the back of a drawer somewhere and must have eventually been thrown out.Anyway, the point of my question was because last week I was trying to explain what a Tamogotchi was to the kids and they told me there was an app that their friends … [Read more...]
#SatCap Saturday is Caption Day – The one with the wrestlers bottom….
I'm not sure how I can introduce this photo other than to tell you that I took it last week at Butlins and the wrestler in question had just been catapulted off stage by someone bearing a strong resemblance to the cowboy from the Village people.It might not be a great photo but I think I caught the action at just the right moment, don't you?Also, I'm in two minds as to whether the cheerleader in the corner is all 'Hey Baby' or if she's traumatised by what she's seeing.Not it's your turn, you get to caption the photo by leaving me a comment below.Have fun x … [Read more...]
Urgent Money Saving – Do you wear a uniform for work….
I've just read on the MoneySavingExpert website that if you are required to wear a uniform (even just a t-shirt) for work and you wash, repair or replace it yourself, then you could be eligible to reclaim tax you have paid and although it doesn't add up to too much per year, I believe that you can apply for repayment for the past four years which will get you a nice little repayment that could come in handy. It's worth looking into if you can say yes to the following:You wear a uniform that shows you've got a certain job, like a branded t-shirt or a full uniform. You are required to … [Read more...]
Today we sailed, we sunk and then got robbed….
Today we decided to enter the Tots100 Center Parcs challenge (although to be fair we decided to do this at the weekend and the heavens opened as soon as we opened the door to the craft cupboard) which meant that we had to build a boat and then sail them.I was torn between taking over the making over the boats so that they would at least float for a few minutes and I had visions of a lovely one made of pastel coloured paper with a lovely floral Cath Kidston sail but in the end, I decided to let the kids do their own thing.Which is why we ended up with two bright looking crafts that … [Read more...]
Den Building with BattleBox….
Last week we had an amazing day out in London as guests of Battlebox. We got our camo make-up on and managed to build ourselves a den to be proud off. In fact, I'm almost positive that ours was the best one (don't tell the other lovely bloggers who were there that I said that though) because not only did we get a lot of help Scott the survival expert, ours also had the added bonus of having a carpet made of magazines as Miss Frugal didn't want to sit on the muddy ground! We had a fantastic day and it was lovely to speak to the creator of Battlebox to hear why she started the company. It … [Read more...]
Does it Hurt when you get your ears pierced?
When Miss Frugal decided that she wanted to get her ears pierced, the question she kept asking was 'does it hurt when you get your ears pierced' and when I say kept asking, I mean she asked it repeatedly for about a week before she managed to convince herself to take the plunge!She was terrified before getting it done, so much so that I think the lady in the shop thought we were forcing her to get them done and kept asking her if she was sure. It also didn't help that the lady who was doing them for her kept nipping over to the till to serve other people as she got more nervous the longer … [Read more...]
