    So I went to a wedding fair with my mum and some friends yesterday. My friend kindly got the tickets for us and my mum drove there so only cost was my lunch and a coffee and spent about £10 in total.
    Got loads of wedding freebies, leaflets and ideas though the prices are sooooo rediculous, happy I am getting married abroad and will be able to transfer some of the ideas I picked up in a much cheaper way and for our party when we return.
    what I thought was awful was putting a ful box of slimming pills in everyones goodie bags! I want to lose weight but thats not the way and it just puts so much pressure on brides to lose weight. I am curvy and like my curves, just need to lose a little and tone up. I thought it was quite shocking really.
    Off to the gym this morning with H2B :) first time in a while as been poorly.
    Then maybe a walk along the front and need to do a food shop list for the week and maybe go food shopping - already have a shopping money seperate which we draw out at the beginning of each month.
    Then a treat tonight - going to Nandos for tea as have a £20 voucher we were given as a present:) looking forward to that!
    so off to finish my porridge and going to chill for half an hour before the gym - though he is itching to go as he has been up for hours!!!!
    Ooh I have sold another 3 ebay items so need to package them and post tomorrow. Plus as its free listing need to list some more items later

    So H2B having to go to work until 2pm:(
    thinking a nice walk later in the chilly air might be nice - and free!!!

    went on my friends second hen party last night - but managed to spend £0, it was at her house and I took a bottle of vino I already had and we just stayed in. SHe had done some nibbles and another friend made cupcakes so was a good but cheap night!

    Meeting a friend later for a coffee which is an expense but will have a cup of tea (cheaper) and need some fresh air.

    Not been feeling great this week - really low, especially yesterday and so didnt drink much last night as know it makes me worse.

    Thinking Ill try and get to see my GP this week.

    Sold a few more items on ebay , woo!!! loads of clearing out to do so will get some more items listed too:)
