    You are a powerhouse Abba!!! We went AI last year and only spent about €250 for the whole week for 4 of us!

    How is the kitchen coming along?

    Hubby putting led lights under the cupboards which is tedious work but it will be worth it .........I hope :rotfl:

    That's a great amount to spend........did you go out of your hotel much????

    Enjoy your day Abba :) xx

    Got soaked :rotfl: happy days lol xx

    Well walked to playgroup even tho it was raining to save on bus fares :cool: went to toddlers £2 kids had fun then it was off to Greggs for sausage rolls for the kids £1.70 nipped to the post office topost a letter 55p for a second class stamp :eek: when did that happen

    Kids fell asleep in the buggy had to wake the. Up poor wee things :( paid kks snacks fees £1.50 so all in all a low spend day :j I'll take that doing not bad with the LSD this week here's hoping it continues.

    Checked the freezer and I have enough chicken and turkey to make a curry tonight will bulk it out with the veg that's in the fridge :D need to make the food stretch this week as things will be tight next week as kids are off on holiday one set of parents is term time, the other is away on holiday so I'm only getting half fees so I need to take that into account now instead of panicking a bit next week xx

    Didn't manage to get my little jobs done last night so that's the plan for today will tackle the hallway after I've finished work a short there's no point in me tidying it up just now as kids come in and fling their shoes and jackets when they come to mine :rotfl: so I'm off to clear the window ledge in the kitchen just now xx

    Managed to get my little jobs done last night :T job for today Is to paint the kitchen window hubby managed to get another section of the kitchen done it's getting there slowly but surely trying to get hubby to focus as he starts to flap if it seems there's too much to do so I've broke it down into sections for him which seems to be working :D

    Only need to get myself juice today which will be £2 so another LSD today :T

    Off to catch up on other people's diaries xx

    We went to Portaventura for the day but got discounted tickets. We still had our dinner there and a bus to/from. We were free into the water park at La Pineda too but would have eaten there and we paid entrance into a spa for DH and I so we did go out a few days but apart from the day at Portaventura we had all our meals/alcohol at the hotel. That wasn't a conscious thing, just handier with the kids!
