Morning all

Rubbish night's sleep again last night and 12 hour day...oh joy...!

Just got quotes for tyres and I'm going in tomorrow on my day off - feel slightly ill at this, but they need doing... £239.70 for 4 new tyres, fitting, balancing and tracking. Cheapest one I could find for mid range tyres (I do so many miles I'm not having budget!) and it's actually the place I would have chosen and have been using for years anyway!

Right, I'm very embarrassed that I went over budget, need to do some proper budgeting and separating things out. At the moment I have a grocery budget and then everything else is lumped in as one, which includes anything from petrol to the kiddies swimming lessons. Will work on budgeting this week.

Hi all

I'd like to pledge £35 this week. Plans are to take n&ns back to swimming on thurs (my loyalty cheap card has ended for 2011 and no sign of the 2012 card arriving so swims may be slightly dearer.)

Friday is usual take out and wine but other than that I shouldn't need to spend much.

Sun - papers - £3.50
Mon - NSD
Tues ?

I spent £3.60 at work tonight.. £1.80 on 2 Red Bulls, and another £1.80 on some Comfort for Washing.
(Used staff discount to get them down to £1.80 each though!)

Off to Canterbury tomorrow for a day out, something different... just trawling the inter web for money off vouchers for restaurants!
