    Thanks for the website link Andan will have a proper look later when I get time, just finished cleaning house through and having a breather before making tea:D

    Spent the grand total of £4.40 in town this morning, which was £3 on bits and pieces in 31 shop and £1.40 in health store on snacks.Managed to use vouchers for rest of my shopping and even didn't have to pay parking as met two of my oldies in town and offered them a lift. One had her blue badge with her so we got free parking:j saved £2.50:T

    House is now cleaned for the next week, only tea to make then i am out to cinema for a treat with some friends.
    Tea is two trout that i was given today fresh from lake district:D now in oven cooking.

    Hi everyone ..... am new here too :o

    Been reading for a while but never seem to get time to join in so here I am :smiley:

    Had a busy day !

    So far:

    Made a batch of crab apple jelly (apples free from the tree round the corner :D).

    Pulled up the beetroots from the garden and have made beetroot chutney.

    Made a meatloaf (from sausagemeat in the freezer that I picked up reduced in Sainsburys).

    Drank about 1/2 a bottle of wine that paid me more in Clubcard points to take away :beer: (hic !) - will be drinking the other 1/2 with dinner !

    Planted some more spinach, beetroot, dwarf beans, lettuce and cabbage.

    I think that's it ! Will be glad to have a nice bath in all my Boots goodies that Mr B also pays me more in points to take away :rotfl:

    Hope everyone has a lovely evening xxx
