    Woohoo, made it home from mums after watching Bournemouth on Sky ... we were losing 2-0 after 20 minutes and looked to be heading for a whitewash, 3-1 at half-time then scored in injury time to make it 3-3 :j :j SUCH a happy Benbenandme tonight :D:D:D

    So todays mfw update ...
    • received a £14 tesco voucher
    • nsd other than ds haircut (£7)
    • spent £34 last month on electric compared to £46 the month before :)
    • tea at mums again while watching the footie ;)
    Other news today, I booked my dentist appointment, got one for the first week of the holidays, proud of myself as I usually avoid getting round to doing it :)
    Also, tomorrow nights date hasn't cancelled (yet), so looking as though it may go ahead this time ;)

    Tomorrow ds is going to his dads and I will then go shopping, fancy treating myself to some new heels for tomorrow night, mine are all getting a bit tired. I have some gorgeous nude colour heels which I absolutely love, but they slip off the heel and so you end up gripping them with your toes and its not that comfy :cool: Might see whats about as long as its not too pricey ;)

    Hi, have you thought about getting some inserts in your nude heels so that your feet don't slip in them? Cheaper than buying a new pair (unless you really really want a new pair - I wouldn't want to stand in the way of that... :D)

    Thats a good idea SP ;) Overnight I was thinking about it and I cant really justify buying new ones, I just don't have the money in the budget, so I will look at that instead :)

    They're a great team for scoring goals Mart but shocking at defending :rotfl:
    We had an appalling first 20 minutes, totally outplayed. Once fletcher came on we were fine ;) No idea what we'll do when he finally gives up, he only makes about 20/30 minutes a game now cos his legs can't carry him any more than that, but his influence on the team is amazing. Even got a stand at our ground named after him :D

    Hope you have a great time on the date mate! I just heard the draw on the news (listening to 5 live online), sounds like you made a real fight of it.

    Well done with the free shopping. I am not sure I completely understand how it works, but it is definitely worth doing whilst the offer is on I think

    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
