    Thanks Q-B and lol smf2 - are you having a smiley day :D?
    Re other spends, I guess you could always accommodate them by spreading them over the twelve months, rather than putting them all in January?!

    Have decided not to as its just going to be one of those years with DIY :cool:

    Swimming was manic yesterday but did 30 laps :) I'm not sure if a Subway was the best thing to have for lunch though :o and a couple of chocolate biscuits have passed my lips today as well.

    Got my free box from graze today which was scrummy :D

    Am looking into the £5 account with Halifax having been reminded about them on Q-B's diary

  • Graze boxes are one of my weaknesses!!

    I started off with a freebie and was hooked, but at least I'm down to one a fortnight now :)

  • Awww nom nom nom, I love Graze. I have just about managed to wean myself off them now, however my Mum still gets hers once a week, she had the mixed chocolate coins with brazil nuts in one of the packs this week. I was so jeleous!

    :D I have to agree that they are lurrrvly :heart: But I'm hoping that I can restrain myself to one a fortnight too. I had some yummy olives in mine.

    Had a very quiet weekend and only half a day work today as I'm going flying :j We're buying dinner but I've got a 50% voucher to hopefully keep it reasonable.

    Ok, ok! don't shoot! :eek:

    :rotfl:

    I went flying in a wind tunnel :)

    It was great fun but showed how much fat I carry on my face crying-smiley.jpg
    Somehow, who knows why, a 1/2 price meal at La Tasca made me feel better again :p

    Am also happy to say that we've bought a mattress but confess that I was so fed up that I didn't shop around and just settled for £270 :o
    Umhumm.....also just bought OH's birthday present (or could this be how I'm justifying it?) - tickets to see Prodigy in July :j:beer::jand I spent £4 on lunch

    Tonights chores are to go through the accounts carefully and get Febs budget re-jigged!
