    Hey everyone,

    Well i spoke too soon yesterday and have spent £11.27 today, although that is still under budget.

    Not too stressed pp, in fact quite the opposite at the mo, it's 4 months to the wedding, but considering we only got engaged xmas day 08, i'm quite happy at how well i've done. If i do say so myself.

    Anyway pp how was the theatre?

    Glad to hear thnigs are going well for the wedding plans, they always look very stressful to me.

    The theatre was ok, it had some funny bits but not the best thing I have seen by far. I suppose take the good with the bad as I have been some excellent things in the last few months.

    Anyway so how I managed to creep over budget, I have been out too much this week and that has weakened by resolve. So I am red for the week.:mad:

    Signing in with £30.34, just over £4 within budget. Fingers crossed that I can try for even lower next week :) Hope everyone had a great week!

    Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time

    Afternoon everyone

    I am declaring at £11.27, not great but nowhere near as awful as the last few weeks. :j:j:j:j

    PP - Will set next budget for £40.

    H2B home on sat, I include saturdays in my weekly budget and we may have a meal out, and i might be buying myself a welcome home outfit for when i pick him up from the airport!! ;);) But it's all going to be cash, which is a massive change for me, [STRIKE]normally [/STRIKE] used to stick it on the CC and hope for the best.
