Evening, it's not often my kids argue but tonight they are really going for it. I'm not interfering at the moment as they need to clear the air but I am having to stop myself from shouting at them.
Whoops, just heard Mr T telling DS off. I think I'll stay downstairs.

Jobs
Tuesday evening - receipts, statements, spending diary
Wednesday evening - freezer inventory and February menu plan
I'm going to see how far through February we can manage emptying the freezer, to keep our food spends down. Maybe a couple of weeks, then I can defrost the freezer and give it a good clean.

Hi, dinner has gone down well, albeit early due to activities.
My freezer will be emptied and cleaned eventually :rotfl:

27p a/c tidy up OP

Dinner tomorrow is roast beef in gravy from the freezer, roast veg and boiled potatoes.
Had a lovely evening out with a friend and a good catch up - both driving so extremely cheap but fab nonetheless.
I had a difficult job to do this morning for my close relative who has been ill - I am pleased that I didn't prevaricate and I can go to sleep tonight knowing it is off my list :T
20% of the working week finished, roll on Tuesday evening when we have the delights of financial updates
