What have / will you spend today? Friday May 18th

Morning everyone

I'm off work poorly today so thought i'd start the thread whilst i'm around... have a really bad throat, cough and my glands are up like a chipmunk. We've gone to print early at work (work for a mag) so it really makes no difference that i'm off, which is a relief.

Intend to do housework, read the OS board for tips and sit on my lovely round derriere ;)

NSD here. May go to pub with OH for a jack and diet coke this evening, but he'll be paying for that (unless he makes me raid Louis the piggy bank!)

    i plan to go into town and stock other half up with smellies (lynx spray :rolleyes: ) from boots as i still haven`t spent my £10 gift voucher i got at xmas yet :eek:and i know ive got points on my boots card that might be able to get me a little something too :j i have run out of fruit n veggies so i will use my nectar points at sainsburys to stock up so that in effect is free food and smellies today . also i need to bank a cheque from mr car tax man which is a refund on my tax because i sorned my car because we really don`t need 2 cars on the road at the mo with me not working.
    i have a big 6 ft fosters catering freezer sat doing nothing in my garage so today i will finish cleaning it out and get it on ebay asap thats worth at least £200 so i can put that money towards my holiday to canada in aug spending fund (staying with bro so nice n cheap ;) )
    im not going out this evening afaik unless oh has other plans like maybe whisking me off to new york for a romantic weekend:rotfl: i wish!

    :rotfl: Louis?? What a fabby name for your piggy! I think I'll have to call my little pigsback piggy a good name now!

    I have a few things to spend on today - reheeling my boots, postage, pay library fines, grrrrrrr. Hopefully won't buy silly things though! In fact no hopefully about it!

    Then tonight I'm off out, so will be buying drinks :o Lifts are free and the meal is already paid for at least!

    Here's a pic of Louis for you, Ms Sea! He's gorgeous. He's supposed to be our mortgage pig but we do raid his hammy tummy quite often.

    Have a lovely night out! x

    I have to say, in a non DFW way, he wasn't that cheap... :( tut. Though I did pay for him in Paypal! He's a 'posh pig' if you search on google x
