    How's your back Al, has it eased up a bit? It wasn't the sofa bed collection was it ... easy to hurt yourself putting furniture in and out of vehicles :(

    Well done on all your endeavours, great that OH is on board and that you do have other ways and means to trim those bills (such as well and winning Mr. S voucher ... all little things but in the right direction)!

    Hope you feel better tomorrow! x

    Habi thank you. The back is only bad if I stop moving!

    Today has been a super mammoth day.
    DH to work, DD 1 to shooting practice, trip to MVF, haircuts for the smalls, foot measuring in Clarks then having got thoroughly fed up with their shoes that are of such poor quality, off to M&S to buy the shoes. £20 rather than £35 so we will see.

    Expensive day but all ready for new term now. Sold three things on ebay.

    Autumn appears to have arrived.

    Oh dear ... I hope that doesn't mean you're having long, painful nights!

    Definitely feeling autumnal here, the neighbour's cherry tree is already displaying auburn hues.

    Ouch to crippling shoe costs! x

    They're saying summer might be back next week, hope so, although not well timed for the back to school

    Hi, £61 is a lot for approved foods do you have a pantry to keep it all in? I always end up squishing mine in every nook and cranny in the kitchen :)
