    Hi all, Candyyou nearly had me with the Henry story.

    Sorry, I have a really dark sense of humor :o (which most people do not get) We worked out that Henry was with us for 15 years....not bad for £100 (ish) - we will be buying a replacement at the weekend.

    Hi, this is my first post on the MSE forum after just registering. Happy birthday Pinkpenguin and well done on passing your exam candy. I have my driving theory test next week :eek:

    I think these threads are my favourite because trying to be disciplined and saving a little bit every day all adds up. I'm not usually very disciplined but I'm at the point where I need to start! A bit late but here is how my day has been...

    [STRIKE]Do some studying

    Check bank balance _pale_

    NSD :T

    Ring council about council tax letter saying they owe us some money back [/STRIKE]     (Sadly a mistake their end and we're not due a rebate!)

    Practice hazard perception for theory test

    All food from stores

    Clean bathroom and hoover :doh:
