LOL update on last night then 
I had an excellent time last night, I was so bloodly nervous, they were clothes everywhere, i had a major panic over what to wear and then he went and turned up early :eek:
We went to a nice bar before dinner and then onto an italian resturant which was really nice. Food was excellent. GG was good too and it was nice to be taken out and treated. After dinner we went to a cocktail bar, and i insisted i bought at least one drink, (he had paid everything all night) didnt realise they cost so much though £17.00 :eek: We had a few drinks there and then got a cab home. I was home by 12 and even got a goodnight kiss
I really did enjoy myself but im still not really ready for a relationship or anything serious, and i have a feeling he is quite full on.
But i must say this dating lark is excellent. Ive never really been on dates as such and there good fun, definatly going to do it more often

Fri Joe being fed at c/m's - me - not sure home alone!
I need to make some bread today, infact i will just put the breadmaker on overnight and then make up some cheese sarnies for Joes lunch. Ive still got twinks hobnobs in the freezer. Just need to get some more fruit and milk and maybe some other little bits, might go to tescos a bit later when they have started to reduce bits will only take £10 with me though :money:
Breakfasts are toast, cereal or porridge. Only have a little bit of cereal left but will do a biggish shop to stock up later in the week.
£3.81 already spent and i bought some washing powder and frabric conditioner today while i was in Croydon, i should of really gone down to the market but just didnt have the energy. Total spend so far on the grocery budget is £10.210 -
Evening All,
I did go to tescos and i overspent, i had an extra £10 on me for Joes haircut, so i spent the following
milk -£1.53
mayo - huge hellmans one for £1.49
yoghurt x2 value - .58
muller corners x5 - £1.00 on special offer
Rolls x4 -.25 reduced
rolls x6 - .40 reduced
rolls x6 - .40 reduced
Pasta - £1.17
potato cakes - .23 reduced
eggs x6 - £1.00
tea bags - .28
Edam Cheese £1.25
Ham from deli - .50 reduced
mozzerella - .47
danish salami - .58
part baked baggette - .39
Butter - £2.00
melon - £1.00
Chicken - £2.72 - Cooked, reduced
apples - .69
pears - .77
sweets - .22
Total of £18.92, £8.92 over what i wanted to spend today :mad:
We had the cooked chicken instead of the h/m chicken kievs and ive stripped the rest, boiled the bones for stock and thats on the side cooling. Will probily use this for a soup, got a few veggies that could really do with being used.
The reduced rolls have been made up and put in the freezer so theres 6 salami and 6 ham rolls for Joes lunches. The other four have been sliced and put in the freezer too along with the potato cakes which we might have for breakie one weekend with scrambled eggs.
The mozzerella and part baked bagettes are for my lunches along with the edam. Everything is getting so expensive though pasta is at a stupid price and so is butter, ive bought the lurpak spreadable as its probily the best value at the moment for the size.
So grocery budget is now at £29.13

Morning All,
Got in early today, at last. So the usual train fare. Need to start working on Joes camp list - hand delivered on Sat from beavers. Will need everything on the list for the PGL camp on the 26th. Only really need to buy a holdall for Joe and a sleeping bag.
Had a lovely day yesterday with my dad, just sat in the garden playing scrable. So NSD. Joe did really well with his tutor, he is concentrating for nearly a whole hour, without her breaking it up by playing a game.
Im also in a great mood today, not sure why, but not going to complain!0 -
