    lol i was feeling evry rough this morning but it was a case of having to get on with it and your sort of forget your ill.

    Whoopsies altho were good there was very little meat, one sec i'll updatemy post so you can see just how little i paid for some things.

    My meal plans all from whoopsies and stuff i have in, meat for everything cost less than £4 and thats even witha few full price things threw in.
