  • Hi all,

    Long time no see or read I should write;). I have been busy recently so not much on here. Having a good NS weekend? Well, I was doing really well until yesterday when I had SD and went out for a drink (under£10 though and was talked into it). Naughty naughty T&J :o. But NSD today. So back on track:T. All in all not bad - decided to top up my travel card tomorrow as it comes cheeper in a short as well as long run than buying the ticket on the bus. Also was in two minds the past 2 days about the food shopping(don't need terribly a lot, kind a top up), but will do it tomorrow. I had to top up (my favourite word now :D) my laundry card on Friday, but that was budgeted for. So I class it as NSD. I really want to see my balance at the end of this month :D.

    Great week everybody.
    T&J.

    And we're saving for Christmas............ another novel concept!

    Good luck everyone

    Today was my NSD2 as planned. :)

    The fireworks on Friday were fab, and as I paid for our taxi my mum bought us a cocktail each :beer: & paid for the taxi home, so I managed to keep my spending to a minimum.

    Yesterday I had to do some food shopping (spent a bit more than intended but wasn't on treats - was stocking up the freezer), but annoyingly all 3 shops that might have had the razor blades hubby needs were out of stock so that means I'm going to have to spend on them another day.

    Not expecting tomorrow to be a NSD so see you on Tuesday. :)
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.
