Running off a cliff *potential SU trigger*

Hope it's an easy day lovely x

The garden party went well. We raised just over £400. It was an air show in weston on Sunday and of course the football so although I would have liked more people I think we did ok.

Wow! That's awesome! Well done Pen! Hope you've had some time to catch your breath now? The photos look lovely!

Thank you. I still feel like the earth is moving faster than I am. Had a letter yesterday about Tax Credits they want me to pay back £2000. Bit of a shocker still have my tax bill of £900 to find so I have to find 3k from somewhere.

[Suzi]

What happened? How on earth did they overpay so much?
Can you arrange a payment plan?

[Pen]

Don't know. I think the mistake came from me making more than I expected. I will be getting my brother in law's money in a few days and I will ask the kids if I can borrow some of it for a few months

[Suzi]

At least you have a plan - although they should accept a payment plan too..

[Paula]

I can understand why you’d want to just pay it off and get rid of it but it may be worth considering a payment plan.

Hubby has said I can have his share to pay it off.
A and I went to our local outlet with a load of bits this morning. Sold £85 of stock that has been kicking around for a bit. However he wants more of the garden birds I had made which I sold to him for £3 each. I am planning ways to increase productivity or I will be making quite a loss! I am planning to have a go tomorrow at making an owl and a robin on the wheel. A goldfinch could be a bit much of a challenge though!

[Suzi]

Isn't £3 each far too cheap to be selling them for?
Glad you've sorted the tax bill lovely...
Are you getting any rest at all?
