Hello everyone,

I'm just about to start a debt management plan and this thread seems like a good one to keep me focused and motivated.

So far today I have:

done a load of washing, baked bread and boiled eggs for lunch using cheap electricity
got a free coffee from Starbucks (allowing me to save my own precious stash of espresso for another day)

Later today I will:

make soup and aubergine pasta bake for the freezer
clean my bike and oil the chain
start clearing up my flat because I think I might be able to let my bedroom for short periods of time and sleep in the living room (I live in London and there seem to be quite a lot of people advertising on Gumtree for cheap, short-term accommodation)

morning peeps

Am annoyed with self for being hungover after having stayed in friday night and achieved lots yesterday!

Went on a date yesterday afternoon - nice chap but not for me - was then feeling like I wanted to go out for dinner so rang my bi mate and asked if he fancied dinner out which he did.

Was so nice to get all dressed up and be spoilt (he picked up bill and thank god he did because he decided to go "off piste" with the wine list!) then we ended up piste!

Had a flutter on national and lost a tenner!

wishing I wasn't hungover but was a great night - think half my problem is that with my friend I get all the benefits of being in a relationship (apart from physical side) but without the hassle! Not many men match up to him in terms of quality of banter!

Afternoon All!

• Meals from stores (had hot pork sandwiches for lunch - yesterday's leftovers).
• Heating not on all day (need it on some of the time).
• Still need to do some work at home.
• Entertainment - all "free."
• Not going out for rest of day - NSD!
• Update spreadsheets / check on-line banking
• Adpoints and surveys for extra Nectar points

And entertaining the in-laws!

Evening DFW-Jedis, :j

I've got a cold; feel rotten.

Today I shall:

:heart2: Do Nectar AdPoints. If you do AdPoints make sure you click on 'Collect more nectar points' under each video to get between one and four more points per video watched. (Link)

:heart2: Check Quidco and Topcashback to see if any cashback I've claimed is available.

:heart2: Go for a short walk later.

:heart2: Homemade foccacia bread for tea with herbs from the windowsill.
