Not othering with a run down of my debts at moment till I get mynext CC staement, and can not rembember sign in details to fnd out balance.

Mainly fact is a failed, but since this is my final year as a student, I seriously need to make sure I am atleast on £0 in bank with all accounts cleared rather than -£1900 plus debts on other accounts.

To do this I have to start with the small things again. One of them being meal planning as I really lost it on that side of things and my grocery shopping seems out of hand.

Have taken a chicken out for tomorrow, but still have some beef left from sunday so will do a beef & potatoe Korma with rice for kids tonight, and I shall have a vegetable korma, plus started a cauliflower cheese with sweetpeppers for tomorrow and for my lunch on thursday at uni.
Just looked through my cupboard and have teh stuff to do a rice pudding, so making one to have after tea tonight and tomorrow night.

Tuesday Korma beef & potatoe/veg with rice.
Wednesday Roast Chicken, potatoes & carrots / Cauliflower cheese.
Thursday Jacket Potatoes, sweetcorn and beans.
Friday Spagetti Bolognese.
Saturday Beans, mash and Veg Pie/ hot dogs.
Sunday Salmon/Beef Joint, roast potatoes, roast parsnips & carrots.
