    Morning everyone

    I'm off to the Bath Spa today with two friends and then were having lunch afterwards. They have a roof top pool which I can't wait to check out. I have a £30 budget and intend to spend as little as possible so I can send some more money to Lloyds.

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

    Had a lovely day today, Bath Spa was nice and chilled and lunch was amazing, we went to an Italian and had 3 courses, dessert was honeycombe cheesecake, yum yum!

    I managed to save £10 and have just paid this off Lloyds, so now have £40.71 to find by end of October.

    Off to clean the bathroom now, yawn!

    I used to teach in Yate! Have just driven home from Chippenham where my friend lives, what happened to the sun she said you'd been having all week?

    Excellent on the £40.71 to find now, you'll have cleared your debt in double quick time at this rate!

    Honeycombe cheesecake sounds gorgeous...

    It's such a small world RumPunch, which school was it? I grew up in Yate and only live 1 mile away now!

    What area do you live in?

    It's been beautiful here all week, was gutted when I opened the blinds today!

    I think it was Yate Primary, would that be right? It was quite a small school and fairly near a sports/leisure centre? I'm sure we walked to a pool.

    I'm in Manchester now but I'm a Norwich girl and I'm homesick!

    My friend (very rich) has a pool in her garden, when I arrived on Friday the weather started to change, typical! She said it had been glorious for days!

    Think that may have been Stanshawes.

    Do you move around for your job then?

    Your friends place sounds very nice!
