    Confession time

    It so wasn't a NSD for me - I forgot that I went shopping this AM.

    I bought

    A new mug for work - £3 - its china, have to have china mug and its the first job in a long time I have liked enough to want to buy a mug to make the 'I am staying' statement
    Three vests - one black, one white and one grey @£2 each
    Sandals - tan colour - gladiator type things - £8
    Dress - khaki, long, tee shirt material - bias shaped - could be gorg, could be very unflattering - will let you know - £20!
    Total £37
    Nothing will last more than the summer, not exactly max quality, but they will do the job for a while!
    (In good MSE style, had another two vests and pair of shoes and left them back)

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    Hi RMC..I seriously think he could do with handing you money at the end of each day as he'll have less temptation to eat it.

    Yikes RMC, hope you find the £400 from somewhere (preferably the triple rollover!)

    Thankfully Taxi he only delivers 2/3 times a week and I had asked him to put ALL money in a bag along with receipts!!

    He did this as he pulled up in the drive! As usual he just shoved the money in his pockets.

    When I checked against dockets, he was iniitally £50 short - then he produced another receipt for £25! As it stands he is £4.64 short but that is having spent 'about a tenner on lunch/lottery' - Will he ever learn?:mad:
