Not sure kipper really goes with the coffee cake I'm slowly working my way through - which apparently had the appropriate number of candles courtesy of DD

Happy birthday Cheryl.
Jinty, sending you a hug.
Nargle, I'm ready to kill truth be told, trying to work out why on earth I ever bother with them. This bluddy biological imperative that dictates we look for a mate. Flaming inconvenience.0 -
Happy birthday Cheryl!
NSD 6 !!!
Against all expectations, I have not spent anything today. I went to Boots with my N7 £5 voucher with all the intentions to spend it. I found nothing for around that price, DH bought stuff for himself and used my Advantage card... so I actually earnt £0.53 lol. Then I went to TKm to return some bedsheets that did not look right on my bed with the intention to buy new ones from any of the shops there. TKm refunded £17 and new bedsheets were £15, so no spent either!! Then when I came back home I sorted out some old mail and found a £10 Boots voucher!! Great day today! Lol I am thinking of buying one of those vegetable or fruit boxes online, there is an offer that ends tomorrow where I can get the 4th box free. Has any of you tried those boxes? are they good value for money? I will wait until tomorrow morning though, so I will still keep my NSD

Unexpectedly I reached my target today
10/10!!:j:j:j
It was unexpected because I went to the O2 to see the Strictly Live Tour (Christmas pressie to my mum). We took food and drink (so no spend there) and I decided not to buy a programme at £10 a time.
I then should have paid £1.50 for the Dartford bridge to come home but I didn't have any change, so my dad gave me the £1.50- result!!
I think I should now set myself a new target, but considering the few days of the month left, will only make it 14
Save £12k in 2021: Jan £1834.40, Feb £1692.810 -
Well done on the race time:j:j and hope you enjoyed the coffee cake:j:j
Sorry about your chap's Dad, hope everything goes OK.
And a very Happy Birthday, I thought it was next Sunday, sorry:o. I was planning some balloons and cake to celebrate.. better late than never I guess:oThe time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

Plenty of like-minded souls on here so rant away if you need to let off steam, much better than bottling it up. If it's any consolation, mine nearly ended up skewered and spit roasted this evening, he's very lucky to still be alive, tbh:mad:
