    Not impressed the chicken I bought from MR T is off!! So no sunday roast. Wil not go and buy another meal plan changed to steak today lol

    Have lots of clenaing and unpacking to do.

    Today will hopefully be a NSD :D

    Theres a bit of a new plan too I need to save some money for an event next year. I have my "old" post office savigns which has no card and takes 3-5 days to transfer out of (so no dipping into it)

    Im going to start by transferring the odds in my bank accoutn and rounding it down.
  • So I really want to cut down (then stop) smoking, on another thread someone said to count how many you smoke in a day and knock one of each day until you get to none.

    So starting tomorrow I am going to count how many I smoke then knock one off each day till I cut enough to just stop. This might seem daft but seriously I must be smoking over 20 a day :o

    Well done on deciding to cut down / give up :)

    It's a good idea to be aware of how many you are smoking and try to reduce by one every day, I used to smoke 15 to 20 a day and couldn't relax if I had one left in the packet at the end of the day, I had to smoke it!

    I gave up by reading Allen Carr's book

    I read it while still smoking xx

    Good luck :)
