    English for your sins, nah be proud. I think numpty is a Scottish word but that could just be what they told me! :rotfl:

    I love Glasgow, up there at the weekend to catch up with friends and can't wait. Its hump day too, so not long till the weekend. :j

    I like everything here other than the weather we must get more rain than the rest of the country put together.

    No spends for me today anything spent came out of the grocery budget.

    Hi Pointy and all

    Back this week with £30.
    MFW on your mark
  • OK, I wasn't organised for going back to work today so £2.95 for lunch, and I then went to pick up some dry cleaning which was about £14 (will need to check my receipts), which means I'm pretty close to my total already. Going to be strong, but making green this week might be hard . . .

    . . . or impossible as the dry cleaning was, on closer inspection £19.15 :rotfl: Oh well, I'm red already! Can't win them all, but will try to keep it down for the rest of the week all the same! NSD today, which is a good step in that direction.

    I need to go and collect my dry cleaning tomorrow. It is going to cost me £20.50 for a coat and a skirt:eek: luckily I have £15 of tesco vouchers to go towards this.

    • £3 on breakfast and coffee at work

    Mmm, mine only covered a dress and a blouse. Dry cleaning is :eek: extortionate, but I've had bad experiences with cheap dry cleaners so I'd rather pay the money an keep my clothes intact! :rotfl:
