    Fingers crossed you get your money back soon.

    That means......trumpet fanfare.......that for the first time in as long as I can remember, I have had a NSD :T:T:T


    Money hasn't hit the bank yet, hopefully tomorrow as we are going to look at some new ones.


    Now NSD, naughty spend day????????????????? Can't think of what else it could mean :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    So.....t'is the day before payday. Banking is done and the last DD has been paid, so everything has been covered without too much of a problem.

    My no coffee Rome pot has amounted to £41, and my no lunch Morocco pot (decided on there rather than Barcelona) is £28.....so that has already started to add up nicely. Of course, those amounts are there to dib into if needed but hopefully only for other treat things rather than for day to day expenses, but the aim is to keep saving for bigger trips away, as the names suggest!

    Certainly do - and I would think nothing about doing at least one of those things daily :o

    Still, hopefully the focus will be there for a while on building the pots up and I can get something nice out of the effort!

    Some way to go yet, though......but it is a definite start :)

    It is somewhere that really appeals to me - vibrant and colourful. One day.....

    So, just checked banking briefly to see that my pay has, indeed gone in, - big sigh of relief....I will move money into the bills/housekeeping/lifestyle pots when I get to work, and do my envelopes accordingly.

    Friday, payday, last day of term for the children.....could be a whole lot worse :D

    Have a good day everyone x
