    It's quiet today I had to look on page 2 for this thread :) Is everyone on the private forum??

    *toddles off to have a look*
    I hope not.
    Although I did wonder if all the business involved people would join it and this one would sort of fade away:(

    Hey, I have an OK (for me) spending spreadsheet if you want to borrow it :)

    I think the idea was that business ideas etc would be on new one, and this would go back to MSE stuff - so the recipes, general chivvying up and encouragement

    Challenges seem to be on both sites, depending on their content (bearing in mind both MG and Claire were warned by MSE Towers)

    I would be sad to lose this thread (selfishly, because my work PC won't let me on the other one due to the log in)
