    errrmm, well. I didn't go! DH and me ended up having another conversation about our joint need to do something and that we wanted the change to be for the whole family etc, but we are trying to save money as well so we both decided to do mfp again, so we both started that today and so far so good.

    I have a similar amount to lose muser1

  • Nice day at home with the fire burning, whilst it tipped it down outside..

    Cleared nearly 1000 pictures off my phone tonight and I start 2016 determined again to manage my photos and get them in some sort of order so I can do photobooks for each year!

    I 'might' be able to clear CC2 by Monday amazingly.. with the unbudgeted for child benefit and the reduction in electric DD I wasn't quick enough to change back.. I might just scrape enough to clear it.. which would be awesome 4 days into 2016!

    Looking forward to Sherlock tonight..

    Do it! :D

    (The forum wants me to say something else, too - so well done on discussing fitness with your DH.)

  • Typical that as we get to the end of the holiday DS, starts to sleep later, 5.50am this morning!

    I've emptied the freezer and after a cuppa, I'm going to defrost the thing with the hope of getting some of the food back in quick enough!

    No movement in the bank today so it will be Monday before I know if I can pay off CC2. Another quiet day planned, Mr T delivery coming later. Will be interesting as I was only 75% through amending my order when it cut off the ability to make changes, even though it's usually 11.56pm or something random like that!

    Ironing, shoe cleaning and generally pottering about the house.

  • have signed up today for a Nat Lottery account and deposited £10, but I do get £5.05 cashback.. Don't usually do the lottery, but hey, it's £46 million tonight and you never know. The littlies chose a line each so fingers crossed! Will close the account tomorrow.

    Good luck with MFP, I'm not having any luck with it at all. Just do not have the willpower with all the christmas stuff in the house. Sigh:(
