yukkibear

well done, fingers crossed for you that they fit ok

well done on the shoes, hope they fit, but worst case is you can list them again and then try again so the budget isn't blown.
Oh how i wish i was still planning our wedding.

OH has got a job :T. Its only for 3 months though but at least it is money coming in. He has to go for training tomorrow night and starts on Thursday. He also has another interview tomorrow for another job. It doesn't shine but it pours lol.

I got some bits of the wedding stationery delivered today and they look really good quality. I can't wait to start making them now but I think I might wait a few months.

Direct Debits came out for the loans today so that another £81.99 of the balance. I have added another £113 to the wedding fund most of which came from the OH. I got my wedding boots in the post today and they fit OK but the seller didn't put the laces in.

Great news about your OH's job. Have you emailed the seller and asked them to post you some? I would.

Lemon_Tree

did the seller include the laces? you could always lace them with ribbon to make them dressier. glad your OH has a job who know's what it will lead to.

I emailed the seller and the laces are on there way she forgot to put them in the box with the boots. I have thought about lacing them with ribbon.

OH started his new job this morning. He is working for the swine flu helpline. He is working 8am til 4pm today. He had a 4 hour training session last night and wasn't home til after 10.30pm. I know it is only a 3 month job but it could lead into other call centre work.

The laces for the boots arrived today so all is good. After a long thought about evening entertainment for our wedding we have decided to go with a DJ and we saved £50 on our budgeted cost. As we booked this guy his wife does chair covers so we saved £80 on our budgeted cost. So thats another 2 things of the list.

Got a £30 payment due from quidco at the end of the month and should have a few more payments from them over the next few months. I added another £6 to the wedding fund. Going to take £1000 from the wedding fund to put towards the cost of our honeymoon flights. OH is going to be saving his wages for this. We need about £3000 which I would liked to have saved by end of October. We will be booking the flights once they are released in December / January time so hoping to get the cheapest price.

Going to the cinema tomorrow to see The Proposal before I head to my dad's for the weekend.

Have a good weekend all.
