    Well hello there :wave:

    Loving the thread peeps! :grouphug:

    We went to IK£A last night… Spent v wisely on things that will hopefully help us with selling the flat and things that we can take with us ;) Obviously spent a bit more than anticipated but hey ho, being skint suits me better :p Paid with £££ I've earnt rather than slamming it on the cc like every other time I've been there though! :)

    Here's mi vida loca:
    • Brekkie at home
    • HM lunch for me and OH
    • Buy spuds to have with leftover SC chicken and frozen veg
    • Think about dinners for the rest of the week - should've done this on Sunday but was away at the weekend - throws you a wee bit… - cupboards are bare…
    • Buy OH new work trousers (:)) with voucher
    • Stop by TKm*xx
    • Pick up from PO depot with borrowed car
    • Put in £10 petrol - just about the amount I will have used and no more ;)
    Catch up tomorrow :)

    Hello everyone,

    Thank you for all the birthday messages yesterday - I've just caught up on the thread. We had a lovely meal out & now I've got 3 days off work so I'm in a very good mood! :j We're planning on going to a nearby town with a much bigger shopping centre to spend a couple of vouchers I got for my birthday!


    DNMS & NTBY - Thanks for the giggle!
    DNMS - Very impressed you're making your own yoghurt! Let us know how it turns out.
    NTBY - Nice one with regards to your salary! Must be a weight off your shoulders.
    IHaveNoMoney.com - Welcome :)
    Bexs - Glad you're dog is doing ok now, must have been very scary!
    Yargo - Sorry your OH forgot about your anniversary, if it's any consolation my ex knew full well when our anniversary was but never bothered to get me anything in the almost 5 years we were together....funny how we're not together anymore :rotfl:

    Afternoon all!
    I've got Month End Mania at the office, but at least I have eaten my homemade sandwich lunch & (so far) resisted the chocolate machine.

    One little DFW thing I'll do is take photos of cherry blossom as I walk back to the carpark. May sound an odd quirk, but we got married at cherryblossom time & I love watching them emerge from tightly folded to great fluffy blossom to a haze of petals on the breeze (OK they are less lovely when brown & Wrinkly, but won't we all be?!).
    So I'll be under a cherry tree later.

    I will just charge my phone first - which is both brilliant & blinking obvious, cheers Candy 0107!
    Oh Yargo! forgetting the card is disheartening. How heavy a hint can you drop by text?!
    eBay - hm - how do you remind/suggest the OH without "nagging"... I get very blunt when worried by money & then very apologetic about freaking.

    Ah well, work in a warm office, awash with free tea, and cherry blossom awaits.... :)

    Yes , it is. I've just checked on my bank account, £15.97is coming tommorow. For 40 hour being logged on! Bless me. But every little helps, and I'm logged on only if I'm not busy with anything.
