    Had a lovely day walking on the beach, with curry sauce and chips for lunch.

    Have only spent £20 so far and were only here for another day and a half, so doing well!

    Were walking into Tenby again today, along the beach.

    I will need to withdraw another £20 to pay for roast dinner for me and OH, taking the total spend for the weekend to £40. Not bad at all out of an £80 budget.

    Today someone described my hair colour as mousey, tomorrow I am going back blonde!

    He couldn't understand why this was a bad thing, I tried to explain that no one aspires to have mousey hair lol!
