    *bought 50 2nd and 15 1st class stamps today......should last about 3 years
    *Made a big lasagne to take round to my sisters for family meal, 3 portions left for the freezer
    *worked out my petrol consumption in the week as I knew that today I was going past the cheapest station I know, and wasn't sure if I would make it; I think I was coasting on air as I pulled onto the forecourt but got unleaded for 138.7

    That's all folks :)
  • JellyButt asleep on lap keeping me warm and therefore not needing to put heating on (she is a useful cat really). Husband watching episodes of Red Dwarf on his 30 day trial NetFlix thing.
    Walked to town today to get milk and carrots to last me through until Monday's shop. Healthy and free.
    Made bread rolls and chocolate brownies to go in freezer for kids packed lunches next week.
    Picked up some bargain seed potatoes at garden centre (from £5.99 to £2.99). It pays to be a lazy last minute gardener! :o

    Happy weekend everyone.

    I got £6.60.

    1. Mr GG doesn't believe I guessed it.

    2. Mr GG does however agree I am a witch.

    3. Mr GG says are you sure it wasn't £6.66?

    :o

    My DD can do this - it really freaks me out, especially as she has v large eyes :D.

    Curlygirl, what's the tax on a 1/2 bottle of wine left over from Friday night, being drunk the night before weigh-in at Slimming World? No reason for asking, just wondered :whistle:.

    If that is you GallyGirl then it looks as if you don't need to pay any tax! I remember having collar bones....sigh

    In any case I think the calorific content has probably evaporated by now so I wouldn't worry about it

    10p fine for freaking me out though :p
