  • Erm ... mmm ... Well, I bought 3 pieces of pork shoulder steak (think that's what its called) for less then £2 so was a good bargain. Bought the usual monthly magazine I buy. That's it, really. Yes, it was a pretty exciting day all round. :D
    Any help, opinions, views I may hold those are my own. Respect them as you would expect the same in return. Offered freely, is gleaned from a lifetime of experiences, knowledge gaining. Passed on to benefit others. I may be direct, ask you questions but those are to help you. Up to you if you choose to take it. I won't judge you either way.
  • Hmmm I just got refused for a tesco clubcard extra card, and I didn't apply for a credit limit or anything.

    Most annoyed.

  • Yeah, ever since I went on one of those websites offering certain financial assistance ... My email inbox has been constantly bombarded daily for offering me things I've never even applied for. 'Yes, we can offer you that £1 million pound credit card but first you must complete six impossible things before breakfast, failure is not an option'. :D

    I've filled in a few more pages of my bankruptcy forms :)

    Oh and I cancelled a text bundle on my phone that I don't use - saved me £12.50 a month :)

    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.

    Good morning, another bright and sunny day!

    Today I have already:

    - Turned off heating when I got up (instead of leaving it on till 8.30)
    - Checked online banking (Credit card transfers in progress - have now left one card but not arrived at the other - where does it go in the meantime?? For a spa break and sauna??!!!)
    - Beef casserole in slow cooker

    Still to do later after work:

    - Hang up washing on airers
    - Ironing :mad: (HATE it!)

    - General tidying up/sweep floors/hoover

    - Bins out tonight, wheelie and recycling

    Make detailed shopping list for tomorrow (Pay Day! Yippee! :j )

    Have a lovely day everyone!


    Well.......done most of it - but the ironing is LOOKING AT ME
