Well done you :j. Not for me - postage for ebay item, cereal from Waitrose (only place that sells it except Spain, bit far to nip over I'm afraid), and reduced smoked trout for lunch, which was lovely

Morning, quite a windy day today and looks like it may rain.
Just checked bank accounts and they are well battened down. NSD challenge for us all again today - dinner will be enchilada and salad. I am persuading Mr Tilly to make some home made bread ready for tomorrow - I am sure he can find some time between calls
Payday looming but the ultra tight spending will continue. As it's a family challenge we can all share the pain :T. Just joking, the fun to be had for nothing is inspiring us all to keep going. We have a bike ride planned for Saturday which will be a Rupert Bear adventure - taking a picnic and heading off wherever our nose is pointing. We are fortunate to live in an area where there are loads of opportunities for safe cycling. No idea where we will end up but a good half a day in the fresh air with challenges on the way. Could be leap frog, 20 push ups (I can't do those
), joke telling etc.
Need to get a move on. Hope everyone is not flagging with post Olympic gloom, I am really missing it and am pretty certain GG will be the same.

Right announcement made to Mr Tilly and kids, so we are having the Tilly Olympics on either Saturday or Sunday. I was laughing so much as DS has decided it can be a pentathlon :eek::eek:
