    Fingers crossed for the puddy tat :( xx Undercounter freezer sounds like a fab thing to be borrowing, you can have big cookathons like us and shove it all in there :) I get silver foil trays from fleabay for pence each, then just whack them in the oven simples.

    Hurray to 4300's :) it's coming on nicely now. I've no doubt you'll make the deadline xx

    Hello lovelies...thanks for all the support. Our beloved feline friend is no longer with us..but he had a very good innings.

    Kerri..how's it going????? Will pop over to your diary and see how you are..can't believe your little one is almost a month old!

    Had a spendie day yesterday..buying kit for DD1. What with that and restocking the freezer last week seems like the account is in OD before we start the month but a very different day today. No spends expected at all. The sunshine makes a difference too. Yesterday was miserable and so cold. Wind chill factor was massive. We were out as a family this eve otherwise would have been firing up the woodburner for sure!

    Not much to report MSE wise but all good. Take care folks x
