    Going to work today so £2.50 on car park but that's from the business account.

    Probably 80p on coffees at 20p each from the machine when I'm there.
    But hopefully will get some 20ps to save!!!

    Nothing yet - but I do have to go to the Post Office & then to the shop to get some bread - so probably will spend about £5 today by the time I get back in.
    The weather is FANTASTIC - at last!!
    Already cleaned the house & planted some hanging baskets!
    Roll on Spring good & proper!!
  • It should be nothing today ... hooray... :p .... as I'm planning to be out in the back garden... its really sunny out there and forecast to be fairly warm. How wonderful..... Spring is here at last - hee hee. :D

    Hooray, hooray! I'm sitting in the conservatory, it's warm, the windows are open and hubby is mowing outside and I can smell the fresh cut grass - it's gorgeous - it puts you in such a good mood! Pleaaaasee may it continue!

    Not planning on spending anything today, didn't update yesterday - spent about £60 on food between tesco, the butcher and greengrocer but hopefully this will last for quite a while.

    :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D It's spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Not a penny! Well actually it should have been about £4. I'm still stuck in with sick kids so my Mum got some shopping but refused to take the cash. I have endless arguments with my parents over them throwing money at us. I'm very grateful for their help but they brought me up to be independant so I hate accepting help.
    Nevermind the dog, beware of the kids!
