Haha thanks everyone!
I am very excited - DH keeps telling me not to get my hopes up and to try and stay calm but it's soooo hard
I've been into town today to get a couple of bits and pieces. I've been comparing our spending to the same time last year, and it's higher this year. I keep spending bits here and there that I don't really need to, and although it's never very much each time, it adds up quickly. After holiday (we go on Monday) I need to reign this in and look at why it's happening.
Can't wait til Monday :j we're off for two weeks in the sunthis will be our last holiday abroad for a long time probably, so I'm really really going to make the most of it
we're taking £300 with us and I really really hope we stay on that budget - we're in self catered and have our own grounds with a bbq, and both me and DH are quite happy to have that for some of the time
we do want to eat our and taste the local food, but it's not necessary to eat our every night. Eee!
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
