    Morning all,

    Time for a money post I think:

    PAD/Spends - £28 :eek:
    Groceries - £91.81 (Minus whatever I spend today on snacks/food for the journey)
    Entertainment - £33.45

    There are 11 days until payday....this month I have two hours of regular overtime coming and four hours of double time for working on the bank holiday. This is all spoken for as *confessiontime* I spent nearly £80 on Fringe tickets this week :D I do now have tickets for some of my favourite performers though :j I'm quite annoyed that a lot of the more famous comedians aren't doing a full run at the Fringe (i.e. cheap previews for the locals!!) and are charging up to £20 for only an hour of comedy. Bah and double bah to that.

    I also spent £20 on two dresses/tunics in New Look. They are a little too tight at the moment but they will fit soon and will look lovely. They were both on sale too so I don't feel too bad :D

    I have over £450 in the Handbag Of Joy fund now, and I know there's a Mulberry outlet in York, so I'm going to pop in and have a look. I'm not commiting to buying anything, but it's nice to know that it's an option ;)

    Better get moving now - I need to start packing then head to town to grab envelopes, head to the Post Office and post Ebay stuff then come back and wake up Mr F. It's going to be all go here this morning! :rotfl:

    No bag hunting for me.

    Mr F is really ill today and not able to travel. We're only meant to be away till Wednesday so there's no point in heading down for two nights tomorrow (even if he's better) so we're having to cancel. Drat and double drat.

    Now off to the sodding supermarket having binned all the fresh veg that would have gone off while we were away.

    Poo pants F_F :(

    Hope Mr F feels better soon. On the bright side you will be able to save a few more pennies for the bag fund :D

    Hope you get to do something nice though when he is feeling better.
