Hi Pennywise + HWG !
Thanks for your support girls
Penny - no limit for my wee fund - just as much as possible as a security blanket until I'm back earning decent pennies again! All of it will hopefully end up in the pocket of Mr Halifax Bank of Scotland
Well I've been quite good today on the eating front again! Here's the menu
Brekkie - Bowl of dry sugarpuffs + coffee
Lunch - Chicken sandwich, half a bowl of veggie soup (before I decided it was yuck!) + small glass of coke
Dinner - Battered Haddock portion, handful of chips, spoonful of veg + small glass of coke
Snacks = NONE!
Not too shabby I recon
Money - I traded in £5 worth of Mr T's clubcard vouchers for £20 voucher for Bella Italia. Either next Wednesday or the following OH and I are going out! We will use this voucher plus Orange 2 for 1 at the cinema to see Harry Potter! Should good be a nice wee night of quality time - we havn't been alone since DS was born 5 months ago.
Night Night.......

Toy Story 3 DVD was delivered today - pre ordered it from Tesco ages ago and forgot all about it until the £9 odds came off my account earlier in the month. I have hid it for Santa Clause

Brekkie - dry sugarpuffs and coffee
Lunch - chicken sandwich, cuppa soup + small glass coke
Dinner - pork chop, baked potato, spoonful of spring onion + small glass coke
Snacks - 1 banana
I'm really starving/struggling today - think it's because it's Saturday aka junk food day
