    Hi All

    Not sure how to work this...been on hol from the start of July so not sure if I have 7 NSD as the money was from from my hol pot?

    Deb

    Make £2022 in 2022 #69 £2247.73/£2022
    Make £2023 in 2023 #4 £395.92 /£2023
    Declutter 2023 in 2023 35/2023
  • Hope you make speedy recovery!

    How awful about the bonus-is it quite common to have it reduced through being off sick?I've never heard of that before.

    It is in my job. 10% docked for one incident, all the way up to losing the whole thing i think.

    Saturday's very late update :o

    Kerri :j:j to No 3 on Friday :T:T I could use a new hedge trimmer ..... cut through the cord on mine a couple of weeks ago ;):eek:

    I haven't used it yet but the one I got was a Spear and Jackson from Argo$ - reduced from £89.99 to £49.99 (or £14.99 to me and my coupons / points :D) I went for a cordless one in the end and it seems to have decent reviews ... perhaps cordless is the way to go for you ...:o here's the linky

    An incident being a day off sick?How awful...Is it a once a year bonus?

    Hope you're feeling better today and it's not too much of a struggle.Take care!

    Good morning folks from a fully recovered red:D

    I decided to give the wine a miss yesterday, so have been up since 6am. Spiced lentil and carrot soup, stuffing and a sun dried tomato loaf made so far, as I'm having a day off work:D. If I wasn't trying to reduce the size of my girth, I'd probably make cookies too, although may decide to treat myself:o.
    Not sure if today is going to be an NSD or not, as I may go out later. Will keep you posted though. Have a good day everyone:)
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    £2 savings jar £300:D
    Total credit card debts £1250:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: - Will I ever learn!!
