I thought of my DW at Christmas..refried tea, bubble and squeak, turkey sandwiches, turkey curry ....The list goes on.:rotfl: :rotfl:But I'm freaky, I love turkey and chicken .....

I'm saving up so I can do something with the DW, something memorable ...I was ill a while ago and had a bit of a scare :eek:, so decided to do the 'stuff' I wanted to - bit by bit . So far I've thrown myself of a cliff on a zip slide, abseiled down the side of the one of the largest hotels in the Nort East, I was meant to jump out of a plane too (did the training, was meant to go back another day). The parachuting's on hold at the moment, sorting out problems with my leg (it's on the mend) .
Would love to do something with the DW, M.E. taken into consideration though . Still thinking off an idea :think: :think:....
Hope that answers your question samtoby .


Right, back on track :rotfl:, 42p from the last few days from us...Best get back to the 'doing of stuff' now .

Happy potting everyone :j

If that makes sense, not that i am obsessive about knowing where every penny goes.

I have a spreadsheet where i list everything coming and going out the bank. It works out how much, if stuck to, will be left at the end of the month. If youre obsessive what am i??? lol

You are crazy. I wanted to do all that in college. I'm too much of a wimp to even dye all my hair now


Popped some more moneys in the pot last night. Most of which was 20ps given to me by the OH

Payday today and i still currently have £7 in my purse so i will pot that if its still there tonight.

Even better news. The OH got his redundancy pay today. It is currently sat in his bank asking me to move it around! So tonight we are going to the bank to pay off his student OD and close that account. Then off to burtons to pay his store card. Already paid off two ODs so after all that the only debt he will be in is his car finance and insurance and laptop finance. Was going to pay the laptop off but wouldnt give us anything for ending early and its finished in september anyway.

I'm so excited and its not even my money or my debts lol.

Coffee savings carrying on, plus £1 for going to the gym (rewarding myself on the ground that I'm actually making use of it)...

Well i wrote my own I could write you a simple sheet where you can put your ins and outs. Or let me know what you want and i can try and do it for you and send it in an e-mail.

I'm a bit of an excel geek so i quite like doing stuff like that
