    I'll forgive you for the Pizza Hut because it's soooo tasty (especially the buffet - the veggie pizza is yum!) but I can't forgive paying 95p for a cuppa!! :D

    So sorry FF I missed the new diary I thought you were being a bit quiet.

    I promise to do better.

    I did laugh at Angelic finding it hard to be harsh :rotfl:sorry Angelic don't be harsh on me ;)

    DTxx
  • F_F young moo moo! £17 on pizza? Sheesh! How much did you eat? Do they not do the buffet deal anymore?

    I have been fighting the urge all week to buy a frothy coffee from Cost. So far I am winning. So far.

    I have also been very good on the Internet shopping front. I have done none. Not being able to shop during work hours has made a big impact. Frustrating as it is, I s'pose it is paying it's dividends. Just need to sort out my HAlifax card.

    Better dash - my tea is calling courtesy of the man himself! Yum.

    Ps I am loving the brolly so I am!

    It's sooo easy to spend £17 in Pizza Hut of you don't have a buffet!

    It's nearly £14 for a stuffed crust meat feast! :eek:

    Hi f_f, I totally agree about spending more now that 'the end is in sight' - I have definitely become more relaxed about spending and about not pushing the extra money making boat out... I did think about signing up for the NSD challenge again but I always lose track about 4 days in! I think we all need (and deserve!) a little slack now and again but my fear is that it will become a habit :( (for me I mean) Declaring spends is an excellent idea for keeping on the straight and narrow. Might be time to resurrect my own defunct diary...
