    Only just found your new diary Pippi, will catch up later. Hope all is well.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    We are back, unbroken, on train to wik!

    My money saving stretched to alps, free sachets, took peedie star drops to clean kitchen etc.

    Hope you are all grand! I didn't break anything in the alps, got recycled eBay boots and skis, cheaper than renting, will resell (might) so that part will have been no cost. Took a bit dried essentials, free sachets of toiletries with us, gifts (small and unwrapped), eye yes closed, no Xmas paper, no recycling! Perfect solution. Home made crepes for brekkie everyday, careful with shopping, etc, gave food what was left (not much to chalet neighbours). All in all, didn't do full passes etc and kept spends to minimum, having fun. Although we splurged and treated a bit. All in all a very lovely, treaty, MSE (ish) break.

    Merry merry time today, enjoy tonight and a lovely 2012 for us all.

    Cleared cc's here we come. 2012 will see me debt free aside the pesky student loan, now I've said it, it's gotta happen!!

    :A hugs to you all!!
