    Well made the fish with tomato/lemon/chilli sauce and rice. Very nice.
    Tonight I'm going to make the bacon and brie risotto and put chickpeas in to soak for the chickpea curry tomorrow. Her book is out now aswell - 100 recipes. I shall be buying it (like everything else in my life) 'when I have sold the house'
    yawn...yawn...yawn!

    Last night went out for someone's retirement do. Did think about getting the bus in and drinking :beer: then sanity arrived and I gave myself a stiff talking to. So went in by car, work were subsidising it so I had a three course meal and a glass of wine for nothing (Paid a tenner about a month ago!) Think the top boss also bought me a coke. Did a bit of dancing with my other boss, had a nice evening and it cost me nothing.
    Repeating it as I'm still finding it a bit hard to believe.

    Now I have enough money for the weekend and Monday. This morning have been practicing signing with the girls, tomorrow may go out for a bike ride (if the weather is any good!) Will be a FRUGAL weekend. Payday is Tuesday.

    Need a quote for removals as work have agreed to pay for that. So in the next week I think I will still have my fingers crossed for the survey and will be checking out removals and storage.
