    Evening All :hello:

    Well September is drawing to a close so I thought I might as well start the new thread for October tonight whilst I have 5 minutes :)

    There seems to be some great progress made by all of you lovely followers and contributors so you should all feel very pleased with yourselves :T:T

    Please keep posting on this thread until your working month is over to see if you met your target or not, but don't forget to drop by the new thread to declare the number of LTW you want to aim for next month ;)

    Day 18/19 for me. Cookies (supplied by work colleague back from Hols) for brekkie. Cheese, Ham & Mustard Mayo toasties for lunch. I've just dicovered the toastie machine at work which should help brighten up winter lunches a bit. :j

    Only 1 day to do and then I will hit target :D. Taken a day off tomorrow but will still aim to make a lunch so I dont spend anything.

    Thanks KittieJ for keeping our totals updated and for starting the new thread. :beer:
