  • Something like that ;)

    2p roadkill from this morning

    I also splashed out on a weekly bus ticket, then the bus was very late and is stopping no where near work due to roadworks, be trying to sell that on then.

    There must be a simple way to get to work, will have to see how much snow melts today and then try the bike again.

  • 6p roadkill at the bus stop this morning.

    Walked all the way to Sainsbees yesterday to take advantage of their discounted belvita breakfast biscuits (i'm quite a fan). Bought a few other bit oat milk, rye bread, rye crisp breads etc. Now i just need to find a good deal on cheese, quinoa, soya milk and yoghurt. Sainsbees actually had the Activia on offer but it would have been to heavy to carry that as well.

    Must fill out and deliver pension forms today

    Had a very taxing MSE problem, dart away from the bus and risk it driving away to pick up the 20p piece winking at me from the pavement or get on the bus.

    Given how long i was waiting yesterday i got on the bus but i'm still thinking about that 20p ;)

    Getting motivated with a bit of S-Club 7 :j before i hit the ironing, i like to live the high life.

    Got off the money making mark with £7 from ebay and £7 from a mystery shop so its up up up from here. Wanna have a nice chunk for my ISA in April.

    laters :D
