    Hi i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

    Shorter than I had anticipated but excellent BIL managed to fiddle about with the laptop and get it working again :j:j:j:j

    Very happy indeed! Hopefully it'll last another 6 months so I have time to save for another!

    Congratulations on paying off your Asda card!!!! :T:T:T

    Went supermarket shopping today and I felt you all watching me! I'd managed to save £30 of Nectar points over the year which I wanted to use for 'treats' - chocs, wine and the like - for Christmas, but ended up using most of the points for ingredients to make home-made truffles for presents. Anyway, I was tempted to use the CC to get wine, but I thought of you all saying 'Nooooooooo!!' so I didn't do it!
    Still feels weird to be sticking to my budget (and not spending what I've paid towards the OD) but it's great!
    Well done to everyone who has made payments this week :)

    Love Your Libraries - they're moneysaving! :T
