    Just a quick note...

    A vs T:
    Carribean burst worked
    Sea brooks sea salted and variety pack worked
    :-)

    Pondered over whether to dash down or not, decided I would and armed myself with little list....only to find no potatoes left, no Tropicana left....cue panic for fillers!!
    Spent ages on mobile trying to connect to internet and finally plumped for Options sachets! Phew.

    Oh and for first time ever some good whoopsies - 29p for 4 bagels, 36p for 6 mini pastries and £1.52 for Chinese style pork steaks :-)

    Hubby seems really pleased with our quality of eating as of late and as sad as it seems I'm excited to see if we have managed to spend less this month.
    In an ideal world it would be nice to halve our expenditure here to take some of the pressure off seeing as gas and electric have increased so much lately and we don't have any other area in which we can reduce our expenditure.

    Sorry I'm rambling...thinking out loud.ish...

    Hope everyone is having a good night!

    Sending love to Logie - so happy for you right now and hugs to anyone who needs one (sorry but never get time to catch up these days)
