  • Today I cycled to the station to get the train to go to uni and came home and did some work! Off to boyf's mum's for dinner! So will cycle to the station again. Bought my train ticket for 3 months up front at the beginning of the month, this will also cover the trip this evening. So NSD for me!!

  • even though its technically Thur....just ran in to say hello

    had a shamefull money spend day today...went on the mountain railway with the dog - £12 for under an hour!!! Was a bit disappointed but glad I did something for myself this holiday. Bread and milk for the rest of the week and will be pushing the car home but hey ho

    Off to bed now, am knackered. Been on the computer putting a business plan thing together all night. I know it will not be met well by the other person I am meant to be leading the venture with. If we cant get it together and agree quickly, I think I am going to bow out. Ive got enough going on to stress over something I dont have to.

    Might be about tomorrow as got some spreadsheets to sort out and dd promised she will take pup for long walk ;)

  • Hi everyone, I am a Thursday poster too, but my wednesday list is
    - put the manuals, warranties, receipts etc in a file in the kitchen. Dont know if this counts as money saving, but it is because I read some of the manuals and learnt how the manufacturer says to clean my washer so it performs better. I also have easy access to receipts should I need to return anything.
    - My £15 M&S vouchers arrived for keeping my home insurance policy with same company, not decided how to spend these yet but might go into the christmas present fund seen as M&S is so versatile with what they sell
    - wrote a list of everything that needs doing before christmas
    - briefly worked on my business website and came up with some ideas on how i can advertise. I havent been well today so couldnt do this as much as I hoped.
