    Hope he's running around after you as a thank you for the ticket Beanie.
    It's started raining here again so no doubt it'll all be gone by morning and DS will think I'm mad - must go take a pic on my phone!

    Quidco money arrived today so that's another £35 towards the credit card, interest free period stops this month and I don't really think it's worthwhile paying a balance transfer fee for a few months so will be trying hard to batter it down. Only 16 more weeks to go...

    Well done Beanie - go you! hope the end is seeming a bit closer now for you too. (just realised that sounded really bad but it was the end of debt not life!)

    Day three without crisps or chocolate! the snack cupboard seems to be really full so I must be the main snacky culprit round here - oh dear....

    I hate snow! it's cold and messed up my pretty boots.
    Feeling very meh at the moment and nearly bought something pretty on boden to cheer me up! very scary. luckily I came to my senses and might treat myself using my m&s or next vouchers instead, slowing down the DFD will NOT make me feel better.
