Thankyou Mart, and yep, you're right about the memory, I do need to write it all down

The plan isn't going well with regard to staying away from the laptop, but I have finished my bedroom and have decided each time I get a room completed I'm allowed 10 minutes on here
So far my room is done, I'm off to do ds room next, then the hall and bathroom, lounge, kitchen, and finally shred before collapsing
Somewhere within that I will also have lunch. Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Ds room is done and the hall, think I'll tackle the lounge next, just finishing lunch first

Woohoo, the lounge, kitchen, bathroom, and shred have all been done ... time to collapse on the sofa for half an hour with a coffee before ds comes home

Blimey...you have been busy:eek: Enjoy the rest!I really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
Ex has phoned ds and is coming to pick him up after all
he says he stopped being sick yesterday ... if ds is sick when he comes home I'll be more than hopping mad ...
So, I have a weekend to myself with only the ironing and food shopping left on my to do list indoors
I want to get some walking done, some matched betting with the new season kicking off, some general relaxing and a night out with mates
Oh, and not much money being spent

Just done a quick tot up of this months spending, quite please so far;
Food: £49 / £200
Petrol: £0 / £60

All in all thats not too bad, I do need to fill up with petrol over the weekend and I need some food shopping but can possibly drag that out a bit with a small top-up shop.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Morning
Nothing specific planned for today other than shred and a night out tonight. I am craving a cooked breakfast this morning so may go and get the stuff for that, but think I will need a decent walk later to compensate. I may also take some stuff to the tip today and get some bits on ebay.
Nothing new in the banking, scratches and daily comps done. Footie kicks off again today so hopefully some matched bets might be knocking about.
On the weight front, the scales today are saying I'm back to 10 stone 7 today (I was 10 stone 8.5 earlier in the week) so am pleased with that, am guessing its shred related as the eating hasn't been good this week

Mmmm, just had the most gorgeous cooked breakfast, well worth treating myself
Spent £13.50 on stuff for the breakfast and a few other bits which will hopefully last a couple of days and then I'll do food shopping during the week.
Time to mooch on here for a while before thinking about what I want to do today

and here we go again with yet another hsbc call from their fraud department .... I am going to change banks this time, I am absolutely sick of them calling me every time I make an online transaction :mad: :mad: This time they rang to check I had made a deposit at a betting site online ...I told them this was crazy, why is it showing up as unusual activity when its something I have done regularly for a couple of years now?? This week I have had 3 calls from their fraud department as well we my card blocked and a new card sent, all because I'm using online betting sites :mad: :mad: Now I know gambling sites may be a normal method for fraudsters but surely there are people other than me using them legitimately too?? Grrrrr ..... new bank account here I come
