    Hi Jules

    It would be great if we both manage to do it by next Dec. The little payments really will help us get there.

    I have 86p to pay in the bank tomorrow lol!

    My petrol light is on though and I have no fuel money, oh well hopefully I will come under budget at Tescos tonight!

    £5.19 left from the food shop, so 19p to send to Lloyds on Monday and £5 fuel, this will probably only do me for two days though so might have to do some walking next week, really can't be bothered at the moment though!

    I've started making some chrissy cards over the past couple of weeks. Don't usually make them as i hate writing them so much but felt inspired this year.

    Oh that's a great idea Lemon Tree, cards are so expensive, I always think I won't bother this year, but I love to recieve them so have to make the effort as well!

    OMG I can't believe you spent that much Jody! How many peeps do you buy for?

    Um that was for my mum, brother, daughter and my two best work mates :o. I normally go totally overboard! Can't do that this year though. Me and littleun are going to visit hobby craft next month and are going to make our own xmas cards as we feel a bit crafty ;)

    Not good news on the phone bill hun, I get charged for voicemail and that really hacks me off :mad:

    Have a great weekend!!

    Morning everyone

    I wanted a little lie in today, just till 8 am would of been nice, but the dog had other ideas!

    I am going out tonight with the OH for his friends birthday. I have a £40 budget but desperately need to try and save £10 for fuel. OH usually pays for most of the night when it's his friends were out with, so fingers crossed.

    Would be great if I could save £20, £10 for Lloyds and £10 for fuel.

    I didn't notice that HWG! Have 19p in my account and 86p in change so just need to save £10 from tonight!

    I am going to my friends for a trim today, it's free, will walk there as the petrol light is on, maybe I'll find a tenner!
