  • An update on yesterday - went for drinks with friends and spent an extra £10 - fairly good result for me though.

    Today, £0.00 so far - hopefully it will stay that way. Need to go and buy work trousers tomorrow, so that's is going to cost me a little bit.

    Have a good day guys, enjoy the rugby and football! :beer:

    Let's see.... went to the gym this morning (paid for subscription), and had a shower there to save on water and elec at home! Then went to nearby town and bought- choc money coins 70p, some food bits from Iceland about £5, a necklace and earrings from a charity shop (only £1 each and they're not second hand). Then bought 4 cards for £1 as I keep a good stock of them for every occassion. I also bought a muffin tray for £4.99. So I have spent quite a bit I suppose, but I babysat last night and will again tonight so have extra money coming in too.
    Yesterday is today's memories, tomorrow is today's dreams :)

  • Nothing spent today...really busy doing the makeover of the extended veggie patch. The jobs half done now I guess. Had to relocate a few shrubs and so on and really give the soil a good dig. Today just drank cups of tea, biccys and a giant Mars bar. Hope the weathers good tomorrow. :p
