Hiya
Mango - really sorry about your payrise, what a bummer.
Not much planned this weekend, but will inevitably spend something :rolleyes:Mortgage-free wannabe!0 -
I was thinking of taking the kids out either to see Nanny McPhee or on a train journey somewhere (with Family Railcard). It gets boring just going to the same places every day.2008 Comping ChallengeWon so far - £3010 Needed - £230Debt free since Oct 20040

I have no plans to go out this weekend, as I need to give the veggie patch a good makeover. I find this a very relaxing pastime and recommend gardening to one and all….. :rolleyes:
Some ornamental shrubs need to be re-located now they are dormant as the Veggie Patch is being extended to grow more things like beans, broccoli, cabbages and I may try Brussel Sprouts. Hopefully the weather will remain mild and not too wet. The Compost Man said they do not deliver compost anymore and as I have no trailer I will have to look elsewhere… The garden shed and tools also need a really good cleaning and tidying up…. Oh Hum…the trials and tribulations of an Old Styler….hee hee....The £2 Coin Savers Club = £346.00 (£300.00 transferred to Savings a/c)

Oh and had to buy some glasses as can't wear contacts (although I got them half price and then a further £55 off with a work voucher so not all bad). Man I hate being skint....Quit smoking 18/08/070

Going to a free fireworks display tonight - it's put on each year by the rich lady who lives at the end of our village.
Mind you, this is the first year it's been free!!
So a nice cheap one for us tonight.
It's also my second daughters first fireworks night - so I hope she doesn't mind the load bangs etc...0 -
Went to Tesco last night so I can stay in today, got a hot chicken half price because it was almost 10pm when they close the deli counter so that will feed us today.
OH is out for now so I have been loitering on here and sorting out my online banking,
Party for a friend's birthday tonight, present was £12 and we will ned a taxi home but no bar bill just take some beer and wine, already got that.
No real plan for tomorrow, depends on weather, and whether we have a bit of a head after tonight LOL so poss no cost day. Need to put my work expenses onto the form as I am seeing the boss on Tuesday so he can sign them and I will get the money before the CC bill needs paying.0
