    Morning... How cold is it? Brrrrr. Not the best time to have a fire alarm drill, just waiting for it now.....

    I had a very quiet weekend, my tesco delivery arrived Friday night (but they hadnt discounted the £10, so need to call them about that....), I woke at 7:30 on Saturday and decided to start cooking then, so I made a lasagne (froze into 6 portions), spaghetti bolognese (froze into 4 portions), and an apple crumble (froze into 3 portions, with a few left, yummmm!!). So my freezer is well & truly stocked up and have some proper food in the house, so today I have lunch with me, although I might be going out for dinner tonight with a friend, or a drink at the least, but hopefully shouldnt spend too much.

    Over the weekend, I spent around £40 on the Tesco shop (hope to get the £10 refunded), £18 in primark (on two skirts, one pair trousers & two tops!!), and about £20 yesterday, I met a friend for a catch up and then had a date *grin* - it went really well, and I am seeing him again Thursday *double grin*. So although I had a quiet weekend, I still spent a fair bit, although the food was needed, and will last a while..

    Ooops, sorry to ramble on!!

    This blimmin alarm still hasnt rung and I need the loo :0(

    Fantastic, just called Tesco and they will refund £10 back on to my card, so it means my shopping came to just £31.54 and I got LOADS. Yippeeeeee!!

    I will definately use them again, it makes it so much easier getting it delivered, especially since I dont have a car etc. Plus if I can keep finding good discount codes, it makes a lot of difference.......

    The fire alarm still hasnt gone off, grrrrr!!
