Hi Froggy, not sure I'm old enough to be responsible for GG - not even Radish could cope with that onerous responsibility

The truth is I'm such a lightweight I'd be asleep while you lot were whooping it up :rotfl:.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Thanks LauraW, there's a long journey ahead of us, but it has been hugely motivating seeing the progress we are making :j
I am having some discussions in my head, mad I know, about the amount of money we spend on loo rolls, tissues etc. I am tempted to buy in mega bulk, by that I mean maybe 6 months stock at a time and then OPing the savings. The cost of basic stuff seems to be going up and up, thus I am musing about options.
It's hard to believe December starts this weekend, so I need to find some quiet time to menu plan as well. This year has truly flown by :eek:

TCB now showing £34.78 as confirmed, just need to wait for payment.
Still awaiting Tolun@ £15 Am@ozn voucher code, goodness they are slow
£10 S&S Am@zon voucher claimed, so the total is building up. I am investigating grocery shopping from them, for the bulk purchases.
Another PC survey completed. Have left payments as LV for now as we are going to use them to buy occasional treats, it will still OP the value.

So for diary scheduling purposes, you will need to hop over to GGs for the 21st December. I would suggest smart casual and it can deteriorate from there. Then in around 5 months ish, it will be party at my place :T
Good timing as we go on holiday the following day and it is a late flight to recover from my virtual/real hangover!MFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200

Thanks to US, I was prompted to pop out to B@@ts and take advantage of the bonus point reward. I bought Mr T something for his birthday next year, ok so I'm a planner
. The lovely lady gave me a larger than average sample of something lovely for him as well, so Mr T will be very happy. If you are reading this Mr T, check your stocking Xmas morning :j
