I think Fridays and Saturdays are the only permissible days for heavy drinking unless you are on holiday! My hungover state allowed the cold to take over my body so I am still being punished by snot
On a slightly happier note, today is Friday and I still have £5 left so that makes me green
Happy weekend one and all.:beer:Weekly Spend Challenge: £0/£30
