    Morning,

    I need to go out and buy my eldest daughter some school shoes today, they're not budgeted for but can't really include in my unnecessary budget either cos her last ones are falling off her feet :O

    Hopefullly that's all I need to get though.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Hi PaP - Had planned on a family barbecue today, but the weather has put paid to that idea. :rolleyes: I know we NEED the rain, but Why does it have to wait for a Bank Holiday? Sod's Law says it will be 'baking hot' again tomorrow.:rolleyes:
    Upside of the weather is that I will not be spending anything today (I REALLY did try to sound enthusiastic about that).
    Am considering getting this afternoon's train up to London, for work, instead of tomorrow's. Sad isn't it? :rolleyes:

    erm sorry guys but for once it looks like Scotland stole the bank holiday sunshine...

    so far today I've hung my washing out on the line, hope it'll dry really quick as I have another load waiting to get out but one of my neighbours is also using the line! I'm now enjoying another breakfast smoothie, think I could get used to these!

    am hoping for a second nsd in a row, should really stay in all day doing my essay and studying but after not leaving the house yesterday I'm itching to go out and enjoy this sunshine!

    have a nice day all xxx

    Didn't leave the house yesterday so I really need to go out for some fresh air at some point today, feeling very fuzzy headed! Going to try very hard to avoid shops though... I don't need anything.. I really don't!! :rolleyes:

    Staying in today and hope to deal with some paperwork this afternoon. I also want to watch a film I've taped a while ago and hope to have a nice relaxing no spend day.

    well i am hoping for nsd but may end up spening a bit, have spent £16 so far this weekend (all on things with the kids :D ) which could be better but when i think back to the 'old days' a bank holiday weekend would always involve a meal out and a takeaway so not bad really :j :j

    have a good one!
