Hi F_F - its Me, (formerly of another name) I've got a Pannie and Mr T O/L flour is excellent in it. Asda O/L tastes mouldy!
I'm pretty sure that hovis and Mr T flour comes through the same mill - or used to so dont quote me on that but I cant taste a difference. Mr T yeast is also excellent - and you get more sachets in a packet than hovis - another catch you out con price wise :mad:One small step for ME, one giant leap for my family!

Rent money is in, as are my three Reward payments
Current situation is thus:
PAD/Spends - £121.19
Entertainment - £31.14
Groceries - £103.09 (Went to Boots and stocked up yesterday)
ISA - £914.51
The car tax is paid thanks to the lack of council tax, and I've put aside £280 from Himself's sister's rent for the insurance which is due soon.
I'd like to get through today without spending money but I'm not going to hold my breath...

What are you thinking about going to an the Olympics? We have looked at a few things we would like to go to but don't know whether to go to less things and buy more expensive tickets or go to more things and just pay the cheapest prices. It is hard when you can't see where you would be located in relation to the price you are paying. What are you thinking of doing about accomodation?0

Nothing yetIt's annoying, but at the end of the day it's also £300 per month in extra income for me, so I can't complain at all I suppose. I'll get Mr Fresian to speak to her this week hopefully. She's quite a spoiled wee thing and I don't see why I should put up with her humphing about moving out. He's family, he can deal with it

I don't know. I'm going to be looking at it this weekend with the friend I'm going with. Although we're really proud of ourselves for saving all this cash for it, we're realistic about how far this will go (Not very...!)
I want to see the gymnastics, diving, canoeing and rowing. My friend refuses to go to the footieI would rather pay for better tickets to be honest, as I suspect the £20 seats won't be very good. We're going to have to really think about how much the hotels etc will cost though as I suspect it will be really tough to get good prices. We're going to have to consider the cost of getting there too and feeding ourselves too. We're already saving our Tesco vouchers so we can eat out for as close to free as possible....! I'm looking forward to posting on the forums about my MSE Olympic Adventures

A reasonable day for spending today - only £1.30 on milk. It would have been a NSD but for Mr Fresian texting me to pick up milk on my way home. Damn his oily hide...!
I got my Daily Mail tokens from the lovely Eager Elephant in the post today, so they're all ready to be sent away to get a lovely Royal Doulton figurine for my mum's birthday.
Not a lot else to report really - work is horrible and busy and I ended up having a 5pm nap when I got homeI've had a night of rubbish telly and feel much revived
Off to bed now...!
