    Evening all

    Today I submitted my on-line tax return and it looks like I am owed £460 credit! Whooppeee!!

    I was planning a no spending day but went to the pub and spent £2.25 on a pint of diet coke and chatted with a mate for a few hours

    Had a bath - not very good, but I was so cold and aching

    Food delivery arrived : )

    Planning more financial goals this evening, am getting in the zone so all good : )
    Became debt free in 2007 after having £15k of debt. Have been a stranger to MSE and now want to get back into my old MSE habits and save, save, save

    I love the Welsh for microwave:D popty ping:rotfl:

    Sut mae'r tywydd heddiw? Mae hi'n oer!!

    Which means What's the weather like today? It is cold:o

    I'm loving learning Welsh but the mutations are starting to confuse me. Cardiff can be Caerdydd, Gaerdydd or Nghaerdydd depending on what word comes before it:think: Luckily my brother studied a level Welsh so is helping me:A I'm actually surprised at how much I already knew without realising it.
    Tesco: £1361.19, Vanquis: £2644.73, Very: £563.08, Next: £1636.95, M&S: £1049.92. As of 5th February 2024. Slava Ukraini

    Josie, Bagpuss, My OH is learning Welsh. He has worked there for four years now, alongside mainly Welsh-speakers, but he hasn't been able to pick up a single word (well maybe one or two...). Its so unlike English he's finding it very difficult. He's in North Wales.
