Afternoon All!!!!
Well, just a little catch up today.....
Today is OH's b'day - so out for a cheap meal somewhere tonight!
I had to put some diesel in my car:o as there was no way I was going to last til tomorrow, let alone Friday! Have only put £5 in though and I reckon that should more than last til Friday. So quite chuffed in a way... thats £15 for 2 weeks motoring instead of the usual £20.
I had to buy some cigarettes. :rolleyes: But I have split them up into a couple of empty packets.... this way they will last until Friday. What happens, is when OH thinks I've got loads, he'll smoke more of them.... so by only having a few in a packet, he won't smoke so many(cheeky I know!)
Have been thinking about the A&L account. Def the right thing to do. Just need to find out when I'll get the £100 from them. Also, I am hoping that all the changing DD's wont confuse me. To this end.... I am going to keep pulling out the £60 I need each week and nothing else! Hopefully, when its all transfered it wall all be as smooth as it is now!:rolleyes:
So... thats it for now! Works busy, so I had better go and do some!!

Hello everyone!!
Well thats OH's b'day out the way. I wrapped up the tickets, put them in an envelope, attached that to a brick, wrapped them both together in bubblewrap, put them in a jiffy bag, in a box and then wrapped the box. A bit like pass-the-parcel for one person. He was quite preplexed when unwrapping!! He liked the tickets too and we are off to see Jethro next Thursday
He didn't fancy going out for anything to eat (and for some reason didn't want me to cook- not complaining though!;) ) so we went out for a couple of beers (not me... I drove!) and then grabbed a chinese. YUMMY!!! The local chinese is doing an offer whenby you get a voucher every time you spend over £15 on an order and then when you get 8 vouchers, you get £15 off when you redeem them. My OH pointed out that this was quite money-saving and (I quote) "that Martin bloke would be impressed!" I said yes and no.... as having to spend £120 to get £15 off a chinese isn't that fantastic really, but if you are going to spend that money, you may as well get something back for it!!!
So all in all I spent £25-00 last night. Not too bad at all I didn't think!!:D
Nothing tracking on Q.co yet for the A&L, but I'm sure it will.
I still haven't had my Amazon voucher from Qype - despite several emails now. I even got an email from them just checking that I had received it!!! Erm..... NO!! Must get on that again!!! :rolleyes:
Been trying to do more daily clicks!! I am not silly and I know they all add up to free cash.... but it is really slow and I am not very patient!! I think getting 29p from Q.co has helped spur me on a bit.
Well, thats about it really! Oh, the fiver of fuel has got me through and I won't need to put any diesel in until tomorrow - so £15 in 2 weeks. I [STRIKE]may try just putting £8 in for the week ahead and see how we go[/STRIKE], nope!! I have budgetted £10 so I will put that in otherwise if I do need more, the chances are I won't have the money left in my purse to do it!!!
Ok, back to work!!! Laters, Nats xstart = Wed 19th Nov 2008 £21,225

Aww that sounds like a good birthday! I'd be happy with that! It's the thought that counts after all, and I believe that more then most. I mean my OH spent over £100 on a bracelet for my bday last year, but it was a week late so is now meaningless to me! I'd have preferred a cheap bracelet on the day
PS I don't wear jewellery either haha!!Debt Free since 2012Current Savings £1,400Current Mortgage £143,398.270 -
