    I had great fun one day whizzing round the botanics on a scooter.
    Was great.
    That gave me a brilliant mental image :)

    Hi all

    Sorry i've not been posting for a bit - having a bit of a money situation with needing to get in cash for my bills account :( Managed to reduce that situation now to a £200 approx shortfall after selling my car :)

    So am currently listing on the bay of e! Have a few bids on things already so thats good.

    Meal planning all sounding good here too :)

    It always sounds exciting when mama and papa fresian visit :D

    It's colder down here at the moment! -13 last night :eek: MrS left the kitchen window open for his brewery, and the taps and sink were frozen solid this morning :rotfl: Hope you have a lovely weekend with Mama and Papa Fresian :)

    It's bl00dy exhausting :D I did four hours of hardcore shopping today, and as a hardened budgeteer I can honestly say that nothing about that feels like fun. I don't understand people who shop as a leisure pursuit.

    On a much brighter side....

    I am now the proud owner, courtesy of Mama Fresian, of new boots, some jogging trousers (no jogging will be done, but they will be comfy for walking!) and a new coat. The boots were £100 off :D and the coat was £27 reduced from £90 :D:D It would be nice if we could spend time together without having to waste it shopping, but that's what my mother enjoys......*rolls eyes*

    Only one more day to go!
