Just ordered the bag after I typed about it I decided just to go for it. I know I will get up tomorrow and decide to order and it will be out of stock.
My sister likes nica bags and if she doesn't like this one I will just have the hardship of keeping it for myself :rotfl:
Went through £co too

I've ordered my currency another job ticked off, I am going to buy travel insurance today as I still haven't done it. I picked up and paid for my malaria tablets today.
I haven't received letter from Santander for last weeks OP yet i had hoped it would be here today. I did receive a booklet with some Mr T vouchers today so I am pleased with that as they say every little helps.
I am going to bring my washing in and iron it before dinner. I think I will make quesadillas tonight, I am using up what's in so I haven't decided what to make with them yet it will be interesting though

Morning all

Nothing much done to help towards OP this morning. I will check adpoints later I haven't had a chance this week.
I bought my travel insurance last night and emailed all hotels etc just to confirm bookings. I can't believe how quickly it has come around!!!
Washing out to line dry and dinner and lunches will be from stores. I think dinner tonight for the veggies will be some type of chickpea tagine with cous cous as I have almonds, apricots etc don't know if they will be pleased but I will just tell them it's good for them that always swings it with OH anyway :rotfl:
Have a good day

Didn't get round to making the tagine, think that will be tomorrow night as I found some veggie burgers in the fridge that had to be used yesterday :eek: no-one any the wiser and they all seem fine lol.
I've completed a ugov survey for 25 points and collected 44 adpoints this evening.
I have bought my travel insurance and picked up my currency it's all starting to come together.
I am going to do a minimal shop this week and continue using up what is in.0 -
The nica bag arrived today, it's lovely and well worth £14 it was reduced from £39. I am sure my sister will like it

Hi kirsty and thanks I am delighted with that I have only made 2 OPs and have managed to knock 4 months of the term already

I have just been my shopping to Mr T used my money off coupons they sent me through and managed to get the bill down by about £12 I will move that to OP pot.
I have just dug out a halifax clarity card I got for going to new York last year and didn't use. I have activated it to use on my upcoming hols as apparently it is one of the best cards tu use abroad. i put the shopping on it just to make sure it worked so off to transfer the money over.
Have a good day all
