I fancy one of those selk suits actually but will just climb into my jammies and wrap a duvet round me instead. No more spending! I must resist...

Bum - just had to pay eon over a hundred pounds as they've fuffed up my DD. Still better now than them asking me for it later when I'm completely skint, was hoping to pay another £300 or so off my CC this month though so that'll be reduced a bit.

Lovely day here today although very frosty so going to wrap myself up and go out for a walk in a bit, I think I need the fresh air.

Have just worked out that come february with things being paid off I'll have an extra £170 a month, talk about wishing your life away!

Meatballs made now and soup cooking nicely, will have to do without the chilli as there's not much space left in the freezer... meatballs are smelling good and v tempted to chuck on some spagetti right now but I have fish that needs eating and a potato baking in the oven...

Took library books back and got fave boots mended at the cobblers - they cost about £70 several years back but have been reheeled so many times that I could have bought a cheaper pair by now but they are so pretty and I'm doing my bit for the environment (especially as I walked today and left car at home).

Go me! I just managed to stick some songs on to MP3 player I got DS for his xmas stocking, didn't need to download any extra software either. it's a cheapo one I got on grabitnow.com with some paypal money I had left, too scared to spend anymore than a fiver on it as he's only wee (and daft) despite him loving his music.

There's not much to catch up on Pepe! Nice to see you though.
