    My first NSD for at least 2 weeks! :j :j

    Darling mother bought me a few bits that I need for my birthday trip to Wales with the boyf as I'd just paid her the 2 months rent I owed her!

    Would smile all over my face, but the 11mile, 3hr!!!! journey last night (should have taken 20mins) has spoilt my weekend. :( Damn the snow ice and people who can't drive. :mad:

    Hey Catt were you stuck in SNowy Wales yesterday. I live there. Left work at 11.30 to travel the SIX MILES home and got home at 3.50!!! Think I used up about half a tank of petrol in traffic jams.

    Hi GirlRacer, no I was in Worcestershire - trying to get from Worcester city to Kidderminster. Was running on petrol fumes all the way, so couldn't put the heater on otherwise I never would have made it home! Left work at 4.30 got home at 7.45 :(

    My "solution" for this is to travel the back-roads. No, they haven't been gritted, but the main roads haven't been gritted either....:mad:

    No, I don't have a 4x4.

    well ended up spending 26.71 as I got lots of red nose goodies (it's for charrriiitttyyyy) and some books I shouldn't have but still full of flu so needed cheering up. Also got some replacement coffee which I'll hide from evil housemates so that means no more starbucks for a while, even though they were worried about me cause I looked ill.

  • Update: Spent £28.74 on weekly grocery shop which is way WAY below budget, yippee! :j

    However I do still have some fresh veggies to get towards the end of the coming week and last week I *did* stock up on cheaper soya milk from Tesco which has helped. Also I am really eking out the washing powder by mixing with soda crystals which also helps.

    Mind you the forecast for my geographical area is bleak for the rest of the week - don't think I'll be doing much washing, may be building an ark though.
