You're doing so well Brizzle. One card to go woohoo :j
March 2014 is an amazing target to have and Tilly is absolutely right what will you do with all that spare cash in April :eek:
Hopefully I'll only be a couple of months behind you

Thanks for popping by :wave:
Feeling much chirpier by end of week..Aunt Flo may have had something to do with it, but lack of sleep and work stress would be in the mix too!
Some good things today:
- OH off work so a few chores done
- had set aside £300 for household insurance renewal but seems we have got it for £194. :j Interestingly the renewal quote was cheaper than the Moneysupermarket etc quote and a day later I got phoned by the company to tell me about a further discount. Weird! Have decided to use rent money for that bill..it's such a nice back up fund to have
- HM vodka presents finished with pretty labels. Very pleased. Smells lush too haven't tasted it though
- have bottled Herman..well this time it's Herbert. :rotfl: a richer flavour this time..but it's lovely stuff and SO cheap. If you are into fizzy drinks do try this, it's as cheap as chips
- usual things like house looks like a laundry with sheets hanging off banisters etc but regular readers know all that nothing new there!
Still skint but hey, I am down to one CC! Yippee!:)
Have a great weekend folks.

Hi folks :wave:
A good weekend has been had by all and it's not over yet
Lovely meal with friends. As ever completely overcatered so we will be eating yummy left overs all week! :rotfl:. Lots of alcohol left too despite the clanking recycling bin! Also just had great Sunday lunch with ILs. Very cheap as had a free round of drinks plus too full for pudding so a very respectable £30 for 4 of us:jMFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal
