SmlSave MFW diary - where to start?

I'm baaaack! :j

Had a lovely holiday and now have to go through the finances to see what's going on and if we can buy a car next month.

Four loads of washing has been done and work have been treated to scones I converted the unspent money back to £'s and got £135 :T So far £40 has been spent on bus pass, £5 on work meal, £10 on grocerys and I'm going to have to buy some maternity trousers today, the rest will go back in the bank.

Did the pizza recipe go ok then Pammy? I think I've already put the scone recipe on your diary.

Glad you had a nice time well done for coming back with spare cash I never do that. Scones sounds lovely never made any but I do like eating them.

Welcome home! I'm glad you had a good holiday but I was wondering what this "bringing money back" business is... It's not something I come across very often

Lovely to have you back. Hope you are nice and relaxed now.

Well, since you all made me feel so good for bringing back cash from holiday I've treated ourselves to a £10 M&S meal deal :A nomnomnom

I've gone through the finances and if we borrow £6000 from dear ol' Dad we can get the car next month. We'll then ideally need to pay back £500p/m to get a gold star but with me going on mat leave I don't think it'll be possible. To get a silver star we'll pay back £400p/m and a bronze star for £300p/m.

Last year DH managed to put in on average an extra £472p/m into the joint account so I pray he can do the same this year.

Am off to see the new Birth Centre tonight, I hope its good!

Nice to see you back!

Oh poo, ignore my stars on my last post - I forgot about the plan to do the bathroom which we're budgeting a max of £3000 for.

:cool: even averaging £375 a month would pay it off only in 2 years.

"Dear money angel :A Please let DH get a large bonus, my lottery ticket win and me to be extra MSE."

I think I'm going to plant a £1 tonight and see if it grows
