    Anyone recommend a good spending app for keeping an eye on things.

    Pippi - if you have an Android, try L00T & L00T premium - both are free - install the first & then upgrade to the premium...

    Also Easy Money does a 30 day free trial of it's app - and is about 5GBP to purchase after that!

    (not sure if either of these are available for the fruitphone or fruitpad!)

    I've heard from my chums across the pond that mint. com is a great free one but seems very complicated to me & am not sure if it works in anything other than dollars!

    I've got Account Tracker and find it easy to use. I swore by Micr*s*ft Money when I used a PC and not found anything as good as that for the iPad :(

    I'm still lurking with interest; still sitting on your kitchen counter. One day I'll jump down and join in the party! :D

    Hey up there lurkers and non lurkers :)

    Kitchen counter is always a nice place to be.

    Thanks for the app info - I'll see what you've recommended and see what suits.

    Yesterday was a NSD :)

    And today I did manage to both

    Take my lunches into work and not leave them on the kitchen table
    Put my cheque in the bank

    Now I'm spending a couple hours chopping up some free wood I collected. :)

    Frugal fragrant thai bargainous home made broth for a late lunch anyone??

    Two mega large buckets of free wood later :)

    Time for a wee cuppa I think.

    I know, I did a wee 'skip surf' yesterday when I spotted two pallets in there and rehomed them. Today they are square logs.

    I'm all about the glamour ;)

    The app I use is just called spending ... It's free and works great for my simple brain

    Happy birthday ... And yay to the wood :)
