Morning !
Checked on-line banks - not very impressed! Once bought a cse of wine from Virgin - was put on thier discovery case scheme but I usually cancel the case before it gets sent - they send an e-mail to let you know when it's being sent. Did't get an e-mail so didn't cancel! £70 has been taken from my bank and case is on it's way.
The reason i haven't cancelled completely is cos I was going to get a case in december as a treat for Christmas and pressies - but I know I will never be able to keep this case unopened till then! Really can't afford £70 on wine! not sure what to do.
But on a better note - have done washing and hung it out instead of using dryer.
Got homemade soup for lunch
Dinner of burgers (lovely 1/4 pounders half price from Sommerfield) and home made wedges - instead of going to Mc Donalds after swimming tonight.
Making mirangues (spelling???) to take to my friends this afternoon instead of going to buy buiscuits to take - trying to use up half a pot of cream that i bought at weekend to make curry when friends came round.
Try to use up blackberries we picked yesterday - going to look on OS board for inspiration!
Thats about it for now!0 -
