I mentioned last month that my wife had joined Ladies888 bingo, and it’s already reaping the rewards. She won £78 on Tuesday night by getting all of the numbers as she played online with a group of friends. The money goes straight into her online bingo account where she will use it to play other bingo games meaning that she doesn’t have to put any of her own money in for a while.

Wish I was lucky but I’m not; this Saturday I put a line on the National Lottery and got 2 numbers, what’s worse is that another 3 of my numbers were only 1 number out. 5 numbers would of been nice, don’t know how much it gets you, but I suppose it’s all gambling at the end of the day. Some you win and some you lose! Just hope my wife wins a lot more with her online bingo

The beauty of online dating is the anonymity of it all; you can relax, be yourself, be someone else, or be a superhero. No one truly knows for sure what you are until they meet you. There are however some little tips and advice on what not to say if you are seriously looking for a soul mate in Internet dating sites.

What the initial steps in online dating do is to discover a little about a date – find out their interests, hobbies, work and plans. You want to start by building a friendship and breaking down barriers, getting to know them a little more.

While flirting and teasing online is fun, if you are looking for a proper relationship personal IM sex chat is a bad idea. It will send out the wrong message before you eventually meet up with the person you are just getting to know.

Two subjects that are always advised against discussing in any social situation where you are meeting new people are religion and politics. People have such broad range of ideas, differing opinions and heart-felt beliefs that a beautiful partnership could end before it’s even had chance to start.

Ex-partners and spouses can also be a bone of contention. Most frequently people do not split up under happy circumstances, so talking about past relationships and marriages can be hard for some people, especially with a person they have just met.

Keeping things friendly but formal and light means you won’t offend, but develop a friend online that if your feel comfortable with, you will go on meet in real life.

My wife has recently got into playing online bingo, mainly because her friends have also started and they can chat to one another online. They have chosen Ladies.888.com as you can get a £25 welcome bonus for depositing just £10, but if you don’t want to deposit any money you will get £5 for just registering.

As you can expect the Ladies.888.com interface is geared towards women with lots of pink and white boxes, but men can also join and you usually see a few men in the chat area.

Now I’m all for my wife chatting to her friends and playing a bit of bingo, but the laptop is now being high jacked all night . I don’t mind that much anyway because I can watch the football in peace and always use the PC if I need too.

She hasn’t won so far but will keep you posted when she does.

After you have had enough experience on the road, you instructor feel you are ready and you have passed your theory test you can now take your practical driving test, you can book to take your test in either the car from your driving school in Newcastle or your own if you wish.

Before you take your practical test you examiner will firstly give you an eyesight check, here you have to be able to read a number plate that either 20.5 meters for an old style number plate and 20 meters for the new style. You have 3 chances to read the number plate correctly, if your examiner is satisfied you can then you will proceed with the next part however if he is not satisfied then you will not be able to continue on with your test.

Before you set out on the road you will be asked two vehicle safety questions which are about basic vehicle safety and maintenance which the driver should carry out to ensure the vehicle is safe for use, they will be one ’show me’ and one ‘tell me’. If you get one or both questions wrong it will result in one driving fault being recorded.

You set out and your examiner will examine your general driving and if you adhere to road safety, they will also ass you on two exercises which could be either reversing around a corner, turn in the road and reverse parking. Your examiner will have gone through these exercises with you to make sure you are competent. You test will last round 40 minutes and once you arrive back at the test centre you will be informed whether you have passed your test or failed. If yoiu fail your test the examiner will go through where you went wrong and give you hints and tips where you need to improve.

If you do fail it’s important to get straight back into it and continue practicing with your driving school Newcastle so you can take your test again.

As the world moves closer and closer to a completely digital means of communication and our lives become increasingly busy, a greater number of people have turned to online dating as a means of meeting people.  It goes without saying that this is a completely unique social dynamic that might confuse some people the first time they visit an online dating site.

Despite this change, if you take into consideration a few words of wisdom the search can be a little less random and the results better.  First and foremost, it is important to first consider the type of website you wish to create a profile on.  While most websites operate on a profile system, much like a personal ad, there are a few distinctions that set these sites apart.  Typically, most websites only differ across the number of profiles, the types of additional services offered, and the types of candidates targeted; the choice of site will directly affect how you will move forward.

Once a site is selected, take a quick look at other profiles that have already been established.  Any buzzwords, profile formatting and styles should be considered the norm, and used to create your profile.  Be careful though, as overused terms can make a person look clichéd, and should be avoided at all costs.  Finally, above all tell the truth, and don’t sugar coat the details of your personal life.  Confidence is attractive, but terms like “cuddly” and “strong willed’ will send people away just as quickly as “chubby” and “obnoxious”.

Once you have passed your theory test and your instructor feels you are ready to take your driving test you can book your test online, your test can be taken in your instructors car from a driving school in Cardiff or your own car if you prefer and you can have someone with you and the examiner when you take your test such as your instructor, a friend or a relative.

The driving test includes an eyesight check, if you fail this you will not be able to continue on with your test, the check requires you to read a number plate that either 20.5 meters for an old style number plate and 20 meters for the new style. You have 3 chances to read the number plate correctly if the examiner is satisfied you don’t meet the required eyesight standard the examiner will fail you. When you start at a driving school in Bury St Edmunds or wherever you live your instructor will check your eyesight to make sure you can read at the required distance.

After you pass they eyesight part of the test you will then be asked two vehicle safety questions, these are basic safety checks that a driver should carry out to ensure the vehicle is safe for use which will be one ’show me’ and one ‘tell me’. If one or both questions are answered incorrectly it will result in one driving fault being recorded.

Your examiner will now examine you on your general driving and on two reversing exercises these will be chosen from reversing around a corner, turn in the road and reverse parking all of which your instructor will have taken you through in your lessons.

Well I’m shutting up shop for t shirt printing on eBay. Although it made a little extra it wasn’t really worth the hassle of the few returns that you get and people moaning about things.

My Second batch again pretty much doubled my profits, but this time I had a few returns which in turn doubled my postage costs. I could charge people to send the stuff back out but I don’t really think that it’s fair.

Selling the shirts isn’t really that hard or even ordering the t shirt printing, it’s having all the correct sizes in and once you’re sold out then you’re sold out, and there is nothing you can do about it.
If I had a printing machine it would be a lot easier as I would only need to stock shirts in colours and sizes and I could have unlimited t shirt designs

Well I had my fancy dress party at the weekend and it went down a storm. My coloured contact lenses really paid off and they made my costume look ace. I had a plain white t shirt which I’d managed to get slightly dirty and I’d also put some fake blood on, my jeans where stone washed and they looked ace with a few tears in them. I’d managed to get some Converse trainers as well. The Zombie style contact lenses looked awesome, and they didn’t bother my eyes at all.

All night people where asking about my contact lenses and where I bought them and so on. I bought some solution so that I can store them for a few months, and hopefully use them again.

Good news, I’m full sold out of my t shirts on eBay so time to get another order in with my t shirt printing company.

I’ve made around £50 ish from my t shirt sales on eBay, I think I’ll get a few more printed this time to try and double my profits.

I’ve been looking round and got a few new designs one or two for the world cup and a few comedy ones.

The t shirt printing company that i use are really good and they use good quality t shirts not cheapo stuff. Hopefully I’ll have my t shirts in around 5 days, which isn’t bad considered that I only emailed them over lunch.

This week’s been slightly busy at work and at home as we’ve been having new carpets fitted so everything’s being moved around different rooms.

Over the weekend I managed to sell a few of my t shirts on eBay, so I posted them on Monday. Selling 3 over the is quite good if this keeps going I should have sold out in 2 months I’m also hoping that sales will slowly rise as well. Which means I’m going to need to look for some more t shirt printing companies online, I would use the company that I used last time but I’m going to shop around a bit more this time to see if I can get a slightly cheaper t shirt.
I’ve seen splashlogo which I have sent a quote off to and found really helpful.

I’m thinking of increasing my order slightly as well if the sales increase. I will use all of my profit as well so that I can have a budget of £200. I’m looking at having a new design aswell “No Lighty No Likey”

Posting them isn’t that bad, as I have some large jiffy bags which I can just slip the t shirt into and then seal the jiffy up.

So fingers crossed for a sale of 5 t shirts this weekend which would be great and make my weekend. I’m also offering special delivery with the t shirts so that people can get them sent the next day.
