Evening everyone, just come back from second swim of the day and about to cook tea for me and OH.Had an unexpected trip to town this afternoon with my mum and picked up a few bits for an xmas hamper for DD from Primark. Spent £10 altogether but got pj's ,fluffy socks, two pairs magic gloves, boot style slippers, and a pair or reduced earrings:D not bad for £10.

Enjoy the rest of the evening everyone, it is freezing and wet here so just the sort of night for snuggling up in the warm and doing not much at all.:p

Andan - glad you got the new student sorted

Evening all,
My dfw things for today;

• Used £4+ coupons off my shopping
• Took photos for a few more items already listed on Ebay
• used the free comfort sample from months ago
• Washing done at 40deg and drying indoors
• Borrowed long ladders of sister to use when weather gets better
• Got 1 question to answer from a potential Ebay buyer (from yesterday :eek: ).
• Got piece of spare wood sisters joiner had extra/left which saves us buying it.
• made 2 cups of tea from one teabag
• made crispy cakes with DH and DS (no need to buy sweet things!)
• Aim to cut out coupons from magazines if I remember
• DH put away extra dinner he cooked yesterday into a couple of tubs which will do for another 2 family meals
• I put away extra dinner DH cooked which will do for my dinner when he is back late on Tuesday evening

That’s all I can think of.

Evening guys, hope you have all had a good weekend, Ive been busy all weekend moving things to new house, im soo tired and feel like Ive have spent a small fortune, strange thing is its not really that much ( compared to what I would have spent before finding this website!)

Today I have -

* Shopped for new house, but used gift money and spent under £40 of our own money, considering what we got thats quite good.
* Packaged 2 ebay sales ready to post tomorrow
* Recycled the brown paper and bubble wrap that came in my lakeland box, for ebay parcels!
* Stayed in tonight which saved the pennies and enjoyed the wonderful eyecandy on strictly...Mmmmm Enrique Iglesias! :grinheart

Thanks sophiesmum, having the student just helps with all the financial stuff that is going on at the mo. My OH wants us to stop taking foreign students, but as i keep reminding him, needs must and when neither of us are making enough money, we don't really have a choice!!

Hello - sounds like you all had a good weekend, ours has been filled with power cuts (very brief) and howling winds and coldness - ergh

Everyone back to school tomorrow, so sandwiches done, etc - in to work tomorrow having (worked ??!!??) at home for the past fortnight, they are expectinng results i am expecting a tidy desk and some peace and quiet!!

Friends coming up this week, and DS birthday and a party - ergh its not been a very NS weekned, but we did google everything we wanted us savvy DFW and managed to know that the stuff in town was reasonably priced and easier than paying postage etc.

Might need to prepare for a student next monday - more like B and B thougth I think - not sure at the mo - college pay by the night, b and b or dbb - do we eat with him, save his sanity and eat elsewhere (we do have an extra dining room (my office argh) )

Anyway waving to you all, power cut briefly showed my energy owl at 0.0p/hour that made me laugh looking at it by candlelight....xxxx
