    Popping my head up from Lurkdom to publically thank Tilly for mailing me her menu plans.......this is the second time this weekend that someone I have never met has sent something to me to help me out (the other from a teacher with info for an interview lesson I have this week!) The internet gets such bad press at times but this weekend I have been truly blessed by the kindness of strangers. Tilly, thank you xxxx
  • I agree. Tilly is great, and every now and again people show that we are not just here to compete with each other.

    Thanks for sharing the good news!
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • Mr T and I along with the kids, have walked the dogs - dark, raining and miserable, however, the house felt lovely and warm :)

    Thanks Rae, for your kind words. I've met some great people via this site and although you have to be careful, sometimes you know it's right :)

    Best wishes Tilly x

    I agree, I have been lucky enough to meet OK people on here so far. Mr AJM and I can only benefit from learning from you guys and I hope we can help others along the way.

  • Morning,

    This reduced spending is great for the overall funds, but not helping the Tilly Tidy activities :eek: No pennies anywhere to TT.

    Woken to pouring rain. I read the post about potentially the coldest winter for 100 years, on Southern Dave's thread I think. That will be fun if it happens :(.

    Mr T and DS made two cakes last night for snacking in the week - house still smells of baking this morning :)



    Best wishes, Tilly x

  • Evening, I'm not sure where today has gone :eek:

    Still no pennies to TT to MOS

    I promise the heating will go on soon - I don't want Froggy to freeze - maybe I'm just hormonal and experiencing tropical moments and not realising it's cold :rotfl:

    Night, Tilly x

  • Good morning, not a good start to the day - we overslept :eek:

    23p TT to MOS
    Mr T has been paid by DWP, and I've moved that to MOS. I may need to move it back but will see how things go.
    Lodger money moved to MOS and again will keep an eye on the accounts to see whether I have to move it back.

    Don't frogs hibernate or go into suspended animation when it's cold :eek:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
