    I don't often get on here to list my jobs, but here's my list for today:

    *Pay £70 cheque into bank - done

    *Walk to local bank and back (30mins) without spending any money - done :T

    * packed lunch at work today to save buying from the not-so-hot sandwich trolley. - done

    *investigate cheap train tickets to Bristol for friend's hen do in July - well they're not cheap, but I did find some for £13 less so I shall book them tonight. And see if I can get them through TopCB for a bit more money off.

    * Make pudding for a party I'm going to tomorrow, and see if I can eke out enough for 3 spare portions for dinner at friend's house tonight.

    *Put washing in when I get home
