Mrs C,
Hee Hee.
You know I said I was off to cook dinner?
Well I put the burgers and chips under the grill. Switched the oven to grill mode. Left it alone for 20mins. Came back to find I hadn't selected the freaking temperature! Delia eat your heart out not.
Mr GG thought it was absolute pure comedy.

He told me I could go out and spend up to a tenner! :T so I bought Wild Child dvd £7, Tulips £1.97, 3 packs of M&Ms for £1 so I had 3p change now what can I spend that on :rotfl:The kids will enjoy the DVD after me honest.....!:rolleyes:
Clearly the 3p will be an overpayment on your payment a day, surely!!
Clear as mud? Thought so.
LOL.
Good MrSH. Nice man. Very nice man. But dont share the M&Ms esp if they are Peanut ones. My fave......... hmmmmmmm.** Proud to be dealing with my debts **LBM - Jan 2009 _pale_ : £24,802.21 :eek:February 2010 :silenced: : £18,078.47 (not including OD)July 2010= £16,819.34 (not including OD)

You are so funny when bored and rambling! £27 for two belts is good, anything to make you feel better is always good, that's how I'm justifying my spend at the weekend. No more, honest!0

LOL
That's how I spend most of my life dear Swinstie-roo. Bored and rambling. I could ramble for Britains entire grey army (eg: Ramblers UK for old folk who go mountaineering through the local countryside).
Glad you approve of the two belts. Just could not justify one for £25.... no way. Yet, two, I could.
Will pop onto your diary to see what you have been spending on. It'd better be good spending missy.** Proud to be dealing with my debts **LBM - Jan 2009 _pale_ : £24,802.21 :eek:February 2010 :silenced: : £18,078.47 (not including OD)July 2010= £16,819.34 (not including OD)

M&M's, Minstrels or Maltersers will do for me, might celebrate with a pack in two weeks time!
How you doing Mrs GG? Managed to take some of my purchases back today and got a nice pair of cream linen trews, size 14 petite (cos I'm short), why don't they do in-between sizes? 12 too tight, 14 slightly too big, thought a belt would help, can I borrow one of yours Mrs GG?!0 -

Today's Installment
Hello Fellow TightWads (that is what I class us DFWs as we are not giving our spondoolies to the CC companies ANY more)....!
Hoping you are all keeping well and looking after yourselves, your little people, your furry people and most of all your wallets.
Today I am feeling mostly.......... ummmmm......... ummmm....... totally lazy. No other way to describe it. I have quite a bit to do. Yep. Still. Need to find that Ooooomph I am lacking. Perhaps I'll find it on Freecycle?
Off to walk the dog in a moment with Mr GG. That will be nice.
Will post more when I get back....

Hi Mrs GG,
Enjoy the walk with the dog, oh and Mr GG! Hope it is sunny where you are, it's not too bad here but then again I'm indoors so doesn't matter! Maybe you will find your Oooomph on your walk x0
