  • Hi all, just to let you all know that Jonathan Douglas was born at 6.42am on 20th January weighing 9lb 4oz. I therefore plead insanity if my spending goes a little haywire with the purchase of cute baby clothes!!

    Hope everyone is doing well :)

    My budget seems to have gone a little haywire at the moment, so I really know I'm not going to be able to stick to the challenge *hangs head in shame*
    My DD's have both gone to Euro Disney with the Guides this weekend so spending money took a bit chunk out of it which was made worse by the absence of my CSA this month!
    It seems that my CSA account has been changed over to the new system so there's been a delay :mad: . When I spoke to them about it all I really got told was that they do say I shouldn't budget for it. Very helpful.
    The new system has also worked out that I'm going to lose £25 a month which is also great - NOT!! :mad:
