In other news, it's not the nsd I planned for, as I decided to get the children a toy/magazine/something to celebrate. I offered them anything they wanted for dinner, including going out, and dd chose hm pizza! It obviously tastes THAT good!!

I'm going to eat later, as I don't fancy pizza, don't know what I'll have yet. Then going to have a long well-deserved soak in the tub.

Catch you later!

I'd like to join for May too please, I still haven't finished with April though so it will be from May 1st. I'll update in my sig.
I'm going for £200 for the month even though there are three birthdays.

Congratulations on the job Penny Grabber. You deserve it. Congrats to tigerfeet's OH too. I wonder if they do appr**ed foods in the middle East?.

Put me down for €150, which is to cover 2 in a household.

Didn't really do well with Aprils challange but that was more to do with a meddling OH than myself!

Really need to buckle down on the groceries budget as this is where most of my extra money goes towards!
