Look Out Mickey - I'm On My Way!
I've booked another little holiday - and this time it's all about ME! I'm usually so busy doing these things for others, that it's really great to have sorted something out for little old me!
Oh dear, did I really say old? Is that what's going to happen on July 11th? Will hitting 60 suddenly make me decrepit? I still can't believe that it is really me in the mirror, or that the mature lady in the shop window isn't my mother - or even my father - where will it end.
And my best buy last month was a 'hair crayon', supposedly to help disguise my grey roots! Last time I crayoned, I was about 7, and that doesn't seem so long ago.
There's been loads of mail this month from pension companies, pension departments and the tax office, all enclosing forms to be read, signed and returned - with the help of reading glasses of course - and even life insurance companies touting for my business. No sign of a funeral plan yet! They can go and take a running jump.
But back to Mickey and July. I've booked a few days at DisneyParis, and I'm getting excited! We last went 15 years ago when it first opened. It was April and it rained most of the time but we still enjoyed it; and of course now there will be loads of new things to see, plus the sun could be shining too.
I've booked the Disney Newport Bay hotel. It's a nautical theme; and as Iain is an ex sailor, he will just love it too. Hope we don't have to keep saluting, and hope we're not in hammocks! I wouldn't mind splicing the mainbrace with a daily tot of rum though.
I'd always wondered why Disney chose N.France for their European site, and not Spain. Afterall, the weather is important and Spain is a much better bet for sunshine. I got chatting to a nice guy on skype last week. He is a theme park consultant, and he told me that is was all about the money - so nothing changes does it!. Apparently, alledgedly France gave Disney the land for free. Don't know if he is right, but it kind of rings a bit true...
We're both really looking forward to it, and it's only 6 weeks away! Only 6 more weeks of not being a pensioner - lol - better start practising soon! When I start saying 'In MY day....' or 'Do I know you...? ' or even worse; 'Who am I?', you'll know there's no hope left for me.
But until then, move over Minnie, Jilly's back in town, and girls just want to have fun.
Thought for the day:
Don't put off until tomorrow, the things you could have sorted out today - you'll feel good and be very glad that you did them

Have You Seen What We've Done Now!
And it's all because of what has happened with my wonderful biz this week.
It was always a snip at £9.99 p.a. Yes, it really did only cost such a small amount to set up and get started - crazy I know, especially when you think what you got for your investment.
But now (and I think someone's been on the happy pills) VWD have made it completely free - with no hidden fees or upgrade costs!
I am still finding it hard to believe that this incredible business, plus all the extra professional marketing tools and other support systems, can now be started at ZERO cost!
It's amazing, plus they will soon be giving away free Golden Tickets that will be entered into monthly draws for valuable prizes - with a car at Christmas.
Also. there's a new web 2.0 viral networking page that will build the business for anyone who has the sense to make use of it.
It just keeps getting better and better, where will it all end?
Probably with me suing the company for permanent damage to my jaw bone - must google 'compensation for making me too happy' and see what pops up! Teehee.
Have a great weekend
Thought for the day:
Don't let life get you down; why not do something a bit differently today - maybe just one small step - that could change things for the better.

Probably The Deadliest Virus Of All Time
Can You Believe It?
Not only do we have a HUGE EuroMillions rollover jackpot tonight, it's followed by the UK draw on Saturday plus the MEGA monthly Spanish draw too.
What a load of dosh!
And we're out and about still celebrating Iain's birthday!
Can you believe that the EuroMillions is a massive 124million euros - £110million - and that the Spanish Superdraw is an amazing 84Million euros - £75Million - wow!
It makes the UK £5million sound like peanuts - lol
I love the way our clever syndicated system puts the odds in our favour.
Did you know that it automatically guarantees that the 2 star balls are covered in the EuroMillions, leaving us with only 5 balls to match instead of the usual 7?
Here's a demo.
And the Spanish draw actually guarantees at least 3 cash wins for every player; and that's in addition to having a major share in 10 decimos.
Why people buy their tickets in other ways beats me, but it's probably because they don't know about elottery, and the way it gives everyone far better chances of winning plus multi-wins when they do win.
Even if people were in a private offline syndicate, they still couldn't win as much, or have more chances than if they were in elottery - even after the shareout!
Here's where you can get free results by email
Yes, Iain's birthday continues; we're off to Chester on Sunday for a birthday lunch with good friends who couldn't make it down to Marbella. Can't think of a nicer way to spend a day. Really looking forward to my July birthday, think I'll make it stretch right up to Christmas, and then start again - teehee.
Would that mean I'd get multi birthday bonuses too?
Whatever you are doing, make it a good one.

If you can't be content with what you have received, be grateful for what you have escaped.

Guess Who is Back?
No, it's not Arnie the terminator, it's just Jill the twitterer.
Yes, I'm back from a wonderful holiday; and Iain really enjoyed all his birthday surprises - I did too - and I knew what was going to happen - lol.
Marbella was great even though not as sunny as usual, but who cares when you're away and relaxing. And of course there's always the sunshine in a bottle of vino! TeeHee.
The musical Oliver was magical, and we really enjoyed the behind the scenes theatre tour beforehand. I was a little disappointed before we went, because I heard that Rowan Atkinson was out of the show for three weeks after a hernia op, and was being replaced by Russ Abbott. I like Russ, but was really looking forward to seeing Rowan play Fagin.
But I shouldn't have worried, he was brilliant; really funny in some scenes, and suitably serious in others.
So that's Iain's birthday over with; mine next in July at DisneyParis - and no kids in tow - watch out Mickey, I'm on my way.
So what did I find upon my return? Loads of good things - another huge EuroMi!lions rollover - and an exciting change to the elottery programme!
Did you know that Friday night's mega jackpot is now a massive 99Million euros - £89Million - that's a serious amount of dosh!
I would love to invite you to join me in our professionally organised syndicate. You'll get 36 shared entries for just £5.00!
Plus, the unique way we play guarantees that the syndicate you're in will match both 'Lucky Stars', so we only need to match 5 numbers and not 7
And NO, that's not a typo - you really do get 36 entries for just a fiver! Play alone and 36 entries would cost you £54.00!
That's just one of the reasons we call this 'the smarter way to play'! And smart way to work too!
So if you fancy a go with no obligation to play every week, click here.
There's also a short movie that explains how it works.
And here's the breaking news about the biz side:I can hardly contain my excitement, I've a permanent grin on my face, but believe it or not, from May 11th we are bringing out a new website and dropping the affiliate fee. Plus there will be free prize draws every month for every player plus matching prizes for the sponsors, and a car at Xmas. This biz was always a bargain at £9.99, but now that it will be free, it will soar to even greater heights.
Don't you just love it when everything comes nicely together!
Have a great weekend.
Cheers
Jill

There's always something to be thankful for. If you can't pay your bills, just be grateful that you're not one of your creditors - lol

Flying Down To Malaga
We love Marbella and the slow pace of life. I will even manage not to go online - well maybe on the very last day just to see what lies ahead - lol
And of course we've Iain's BIG birthday celebrations to look forward to and a long weekend in London before we go home.
That's if we come home of course. You never know, we might win the lottery whilst we're away! I wonder what we would do if we did win? Probably still go home to sort a few things out, and then fly back again to chill out and decide upon our next steps.
We're also looking forward to showing our Spanish friends that we now offer a smarter way to play the El Gordo and other Spanish draws too.
The next MEGA draw is early May, so if you want a share in 10 decimos, have a look here.
Well it's almost time to go and pack my case, so adios amigos y hasta la vista!

Have YOU Had Your Free Go On The £1000 Draw Yet?
Have fun and be lucky - and of course remember to tell me if you win - all contributions greatfully accepted - lol
And guess what, it's almost the weekend yet again - goody goody.
Thought for the day:
If you have nothing to be thankful for, then there's probably something wrong with you!

Hurray - It's the Weekend Again
I can't believe it's Saturday morning once again- I've only just recovered from the last one - lol!
When I worked 9 - 5 the days didn't go by as quickly as this; yet when you're busy you'd think the time would go quicker. I worked in retail banking, and you'd no sooner have walked through the door, and POW - you'd be full-on all day - hardly drawing breath for a drink! Yet sometimes the days would seem long.
So why, now that I'm semi-retired and enjoying a much slower pace with time freedom, do the days go by so quickly?
It's now 10.00am with a relaxing day ahead (going to the supermarket too) , and a pleasant evening dining out with friends, but I bet before I know it, it will be midnight.
And guess what, we put the clocks forward tonight too - so that'll be another hour lost - aaagh!
It will soon be time to get up again at this rate! Oh well, we're out for Sunday lunch tomorrow, so that'll be nice. Where am I going to put all this food?? There's no more room on my body.
At this rate, it will soon be our birthdays! My husband Iain is 60 on April 16th and I've organised a few little surprises at our apartment in Marbella. He doesn't even know that we are popping over there yet - teehee - so if you see him, please keep it quiet - it'll be fun getting him to the airport! We fly back to London for a theatre weekend; I've booked tickets for his favourite musical and a behind the scenes tour - so that will be very interesting.
Guess who is 60 in July? That's something else I can't believe. And the person in the mirror looks more like my mother - or even my father - lol - so what happened there then? Another lot of time just flying past?
I'm really looking forward to mine though, 'cos we've booked a long weekend in DisneyParis. We went 15 years ago on their opening week in April, so it will be exciting seeing all the changes. They didn't have the Studios then, plus it rained all the time!
Also, we both belong to the Birthday Bonus Club, and we are looking forward to all the cash presents that will be coming our way. If you havn't joined yet, then you really should consider it - lots of fun and rewarding too.
Can you believe that another 30 mins has crept by now? Unbelievable! So time to get going.
Have a great weekend.

I've won loads of prizes over the years, but never the BIG one like a house or an 'Around the World Cruise'. Plenty of 2nd prizes though, which I've been very happy with. And it's been nice giving some away to other people too.
So when I came across this fantastic competition site, I knew I just had to share it. So why not go and have a look around; enter a few, and let me know if you win! Click here
