Videos of where we used to live, and other stuff!

I have discovered a web site from where we used to live in Britain called The Eden Valley Messenger  I personally find it interesting as it tells us all the news of where we used to live and occasionally it talks about people we know.  She also does some neat videos, here are three, all are short and the music is soothing:

November 2009

Same place in January 2010, just over a month later.  We were married in the church.

Here is another one showing places around Appleby, including the primary school I went too, girls went in one door, boys in another.  The railway station, we used to live close to there. 


I read a book earlier in the month by a new to me author called Dixie Cash.  The book was called, "my heart may be broken, BUT my hair still looks great."

It was a fun book, that of course I couldn't put down, but what's new there.  It was one of those books where you wanted to see what happens next.  I must keep my eyes out for the other books by the same authors.  I just love the titles of their books as they are so catchy.

Did you put your money in your Daily Saving Pot today?

Today's Money Saving Tip:

Use your local library.  If you read a lot, it saves you money hands down, by borrowing books, rather than buying them.  You can also borrow magazines, rather than buying them.  You can rent or borrow dvd's for a nominal cost, some are even free.  They often hold courses for nominal fees.  For children they often have story time or crafts at little to no cost.  Our library will order books from other libraries if they don't have it.  I use our library a lot, and the people who work there are a pleasure to deal with.

I should mention, I donate any books I buy and read to the library.  As I have mentioned before, I do buy books from Book Close Outs as they are a great price.  They have a 99 cent Health and Fitness sale at the moment.
