    I had a lovely day pottering about doing housework and then decided to walk down to the library which is about 30 minutes away. Had a browse through the books, got a couple of interesting ones and walked home.
    Funny how that feels like shopping, isn't it?

    Chris

    I feel like that too!

    NSD no 3 for me today!:j
    Am not going out tonight so its safe to declare!!

    Nabbed NSD no 4 today, though it was a near thing!

    Was going to get diesel last night at Mr M's with my 6p off per litre voucher, but forgot. :o..so as the voucher was only valid up to today, thought I would have to get some today...but even with the voucher, the fuel was still 4p a litre more expensive than in the big town!! As I don't really need to get fuel until next week...I didn't!!! :j


    I got a refund today too. DS2 had a filling yesterday when he had a checkup at the dentist...£47 in all!! :eek: Only when I got back did I realize that he still gets dental treatment for free!!! He's 18, and still in full-time education, so fantastic news!! In fact we don't start paying until he is 19...another 9 months to go then!!

    Right, off to get tea on...got a scrummy free-range chicken from A£di yesterday, so looking forward to it. I did suggest that we leave it until tomorrow or Sunday, but no...so roast chicken with all the trimmings it is then...despite it being 23 degrees outside!! :o

    Have a good weekend everyone. I'm hoping to catch another couple of NSDs....how about everyone else?

    Ohhhhh can you imagine, I used to live quite close to the border (in Scotland) but worked in England - can just see passport control in the lay-by on the A1 next to the "welcome to Scotland / England" signs!!!!

    Today has been a spend day.It was meant to be a low spend day,but turned into a high spend day.On the plus side,I did get 20% off the total price of the high spend items and had the money to cover it in my account.

    So,still on NSD no.2.

    Onwards and upwards ;).Have a good weekend!
