Morning All :hello: Thanks SM :A

Not sparkling today and dull grey socks to match.

However I have/will:

• brought in lunch
• eaten brekkie so I avoid the vending machine
• A NSD yesterday - and probably today too
• lunch from storecupboard
• have given up gin for Lent and discovered that straight tonic water is tolerable - I may carry that on after Easter at least some of hte time , although my Gin is cheap imports anyway
• Ma's birthday next week and I have her pressie already
• Scratch'n'click - 35p
• cancelled my automatic renewal and will go ahead with my Quidco car insurance purchase.
• Transferred £10 from my Bingo site, and am looking forward to £30 from Quidco this month.
• Will set up a cash ISA (as recommended by this weeks e-mail) at 7%.

Have a great day everyone - it is Friday :j :j

Happy Friday everypeeps!

Am feeling bit happier today, though first thing this morning was feeling distinctly foul and most unsparkly. It seems the cloud has passed and a few choccie biccies helped it on its way!

Today I have:

• Driven sensibly to conserve petrol - amazing how much longer it lasts when you do this
• HM Breakfast and lunch, prob dinner too
• Daily clicks and any surveys that come in
• Still umming and ahhing about going after an A&L bank account - as bit frightened to tell FD that I will pay them off slowly, cos have horrible feeling that they will jump and want my entire OD (£1750 back at once).... so stuck between devil and deep blue sea.... any advise?
• Free tea, coffees and biscuits at work
• Drink squash with free water and not go to Coke machine (though am dying for a Diet Coke - MUST RESIST)
• Will ride horse later
• OH can walk dog today
• MIL's b'day today - will call later to wish Happy Day - will use free minutes on phone
• Will try for a NSD today - esp as I spent SOOOOO much yesterday (all necessary though I may add)

Enjoy Enjoy

Gorgeous sunny day here - though that is what I can see through a window from my desk. Would rather be outside TBH!!

I was thinking about leaving FD and going to A&L a while ago, but sure I read something about HAVING To put £1,000 a month odd into FD to allow use of their services such as the overdraft, so I thought better of it. Of course, you could bounce your wages direct from one t'other....

Today I am:
* working out MINIMUM Payments I can make to OH and my credit cards, for one month only, to help cover the Solicitors fee / stamp duty on new house (gah! It's going against the grain!!)
* updating spreadsheets
* looking around for any Homebase discount codes (can only find ones that expired yesterday)
* explaining to OH that we cannot afford a takeaway tonight
* free lunch with work
* piggy clicks - or not! x
