To Do:
[*]Drink all the coffee I can because I've had five hours sleep
[/LIST]
Morning
:rotfl:
That's me today coffee and probably intravenously.
Beanie sorry to hear about the toaster, sounds like a boyfriend I once had. Life lesson indeed.
Campervans wonderful (sniffs at the demise of my own one) but money sucking vampires. Picnic basket and tent much easier to keepTotal debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:

Morning all
Another £5 off £10 meat spend voucher in the Sun today if anyone's in the market. I'll be buying a copy or two
Nectar up to 8179 points / £40.90. I've earned 40 points from Adpoints so far this week. I'll try and watch the rest of the videos later today.
Nowt else to report apart from Fringe funGiven that we're halfway through the month, the budgets are looking pretty good, although I will definitely spend my Fringe budget by the end of this weekend and will have to start looking elsewhere for funds

Thanks for the heads up re the voucher I may shamelessly steal and copy. Sounds like the fringe fun has you all invigorated, great stuff.
Have a great day.Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

Morning all
I've been quiet recently, mainly trying to get through the Fringe and stay on budget!! I've done quite well - there's £40 left in my budget which will keep me in drinks at the two shows I have left to see. It'll have been a quiet Fringe really - I'll have seen 23 shows (I think!) by the end of this weekNot bad considering that I lost one weekend to a family party, one to friends visiting and one to my parents visiting
The budgets are largely unscathed (apart from the Fringe one!) and with 11 days to go until the end of the month I have over £50 in spending money and over £100 in the food account, mainly thanks to Mr Mooo making a good-sized donation to the food fund.
The Nectar points are up to £41.49, so that's ticking along well despite me not having a lot of time for Adpoints or surveys. I wish that the surveys they sent me were a little more honest about how much time they take. Sometimes I just lose the will and drop out halfway through
Final MSE thing to report - I checked my credit card today and it's perfect. Not a penny out of whack0 -
Glad you are having a happy fringe.
