Hi love, give me a shout if you fancy a coffee next week.
Well done on the budgeting and menu planning. It really does make a huge difference to your cash.
I bought 2 Glamours and got a moisture surge and a dramatically different moisturiser which is a great size for nights away.

whoop wooop well done you giving that up for Lent....
You have come so far in such a short period of time....:j, a new laptop to boot....and money paid off your debts too....:T
Gym buddies are great until they decide not to go then its pants, I would suggest you go on your own then that way you will go at anytime and don't become reliant on that other person being there. The times that they don't go you won't feel like it either....happened to me and maybe you have more determination than me but knowing what I do now, wish I had just gone on my own in the first place.....

Afternoon
BF - Yeah I know what you mean about the gym buddy and to be honest it'd probably be me letting the other person down. Its more someone to go (e.g) swimming with on a Sat morning so I actually have to get out of bed! I'll still join and take my faithful ipod with me!0 -

Well just been to Morrisons and got £6 odd worth of shopping in so dont have to go tomorrow
. Had hailstones on the way there and rain on way back!
Decided to make the sausage casserole now as the mushrooms in the fridge were going a bit furry! Its now in the oven bubbling away, smelling lovely. Will have some tonight and portion the rest out to eat later. Oh hungry!
Have joined Curves!! Wasnt too keen on it but have heard good things. Today I got an email from 5pm.co.uk with an offer of 6 weeks membership for £25, seemed a good deal and no requirement to sign up to a direct debit or anything. I gather 6 weeks will be long enough to decide if I like it or not.
Hope you all have a nice evening
