    Hello Liz

    Couldn't not stop and say hi to a poster with Bristol in their sig!!:-))

    Well done on facing up to it all. It's the important first step. I agree with tixy, we have all been there. I am still horrified how we can often spend as much £600 sometimes on eating out ( there are 4 of us, sometimes 5 eating ) as well as £600 PM on groceries for 5 of us, 3 adults and 2 kids. It's obscene. I know we buy organic but even so we never waste food and cook from scratch. Anyway..there's my dirty secret aired...;-) onwards and upwards. Can only strive to do better next month..and tbh with my salary cut back recently we will have to!!

    Best wishes
