    Hello Pointy and pals

    I stuck to the £5 I allowed myself, had a sandwich lunch with a friend I hadn't seen for ages!

    I've been given a ticket to the Picasso exhibition, so I'll have to pay tube fares to get there next week, so I'll have to allow £10, is that okay?

    Hello!!!

    How the devil is everyone? I'm sorry I haven't been round, the play went so immensely well, but I'm still soooooooo tired - so tired in fact that I'm not sure if I've already posed a similar message on this thread! :p

    I think I've been bad at spending the past week or two, but without writing it down and ploughing through snacks while doing 15hour days I can't tell just how bad I've been. Which has proved to me how much I need this thread:D

    Anyway, I know I'm off for a night out or two this week, and my money seems to work better when I combine my 'amuse myself' budget with my misc. budget, so can I please be put down for £40PP? I'm afraid I've spent £2.54 already...:mad:

    Hey all.

    Well my budget was £20 and I've not a penny left in my purse this week. I've been a bit wasteful spending on things like snacks and wine.

    Next week I will do much better.

    (toddles off to the new post to declare next weeks budget)

    Looking forward to the future.
