Wow my spellings bad, silly iPad.

Good day few spends tho Im now on my holiday £100 so happy meals £7 chippy £9 drinks £3.35 ice creams and chocolate £6 it soon adds up £25.35 already! Also bought the kids star wars backpacks at £2.50 each but they get a uniform allowance so that's not from my budget, I think I might struggle to use the unform allowance it's £70 but there coats we're £8 they don't need shirts or trousers and trainers will be from sports direct so around £10 each, all they really need is a few jumpers and socks...will see how it goes I guess.

Night all

It's about time lol, I have over £600 in my current account as well, but I need some of that for my Tesco shop and don't wanna leave myself short when we're on hold since it rarely happens lol, just seen ur feeling sick not to bad I hope?


Hmm I'm out of cheese do I add some to my Tesco shop, or do I go to makro which will cost me in desil and I'll prob end up with more than cheese?


Poor hubby's not feeling well, and I had a late lunch so not hungry yet so kids ha cheese toasties and few bits and a few bits and prices, chickens now cooling n I'll strip it off the bones for sandwiches later.

Off shopping today, hubby's going to a meeting near primark so it's a devil saving exercise, plan to get some socks , pants and vests for starting school and aye a few pairs of jeans in the next size, and some cosy Jamie's for Xmas if they have any in, we don't go very often as its so far so best to get everything I need in one go.


Depending on the weather and how long hubby is there's a pick your own farm up there we might go to.

Well it depends what time he's back if it's later might get takeaway, hes really not feeling great def over worked this past few days, only today and tomorrow to go then he can have a proper rest. Everytime we've went out he's not keen to do anything and wants home quickly to get more done
