If I'm organised enough to bring in my lunch, I can do some delicious things for about 50p. Normally I fail to do that though, and with no cantine and working in the city centre, I'd do well to buy lunch for less than about £3.50 - I normally don't do too much more than that, though.0

This sounds just what I need to cheer me up on these long winter days. I always take a packed lunch with me to work, and I think it probably costs me around £1 a day, depending on my sandwiches or quiche or wraps etc.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170
