No work for me today, i don't work weekends.
What are you all up to this evening? I am off out for dinner tonight with my friend and his fianc!e. He is one of my best friends and asked me to be Best (Wo)Man at his wedding in September
But i have never met his fianc!e, so we are getting together for dinner tonight. It'll be lovely to see them both.
It's my 1st night out in 3 years!
I wonder why on Earth MSE has starred out an e with an accent on it? Strange!0 -

I fancy ordering steak for dinner, if they do them. B17c, i am blaming you!

I don't work weekends either but I must be getting in the swing of making packed lunches as I have made one for DH and my walk tomorrow and will make a flask of tea and pack some biccies to have when we get back to the car, saves us popping in to a cafe for a post walk coffee and cake;)
Tonight we are having a home made curry night and watching Taken 2. No vino though as we are doing dry January.
WantToBeSE - enjoy the steak:)

Good morning LTW'ers!
All updated and adds done up to here
I had a lovely evening out yesterday. B17c, i didn't have steak as the only steak they had was a 27oz!! I knew i wouldn't be able to eat all of that, so i had the posh burger and chips instead.
I am going out for dinner next weekend too, as it's my sons 14th birthday, so i will definitely have steak then!
Both of the boys are at their Dads house, so i have a quiet relaxing Sunday today. What is everyone else up to?0 -
im not crossing the threshold today. DD1 is home and i'm doing us a roast later - slipped up in Tesco y'day, large stuffed chicken breast/crown thingy had no price on it and I guessed about £4 WRONG - got the till and it was £6 which is a lot for a sunday joint when there's only 2 of us but I've decided once it's cooked to cut in half and freeze it so £3 per meal is ok. Found some fresh frozen veg i'd stashed in the freezer so that's a freebie. Apart from that i'm gonna be taking down decorations, sorting dd2s room out cos she's moved out and basically chilling. Nice bath later.
Still 2 looong weeks till payday - I daren't check my credit card balance - i'm sure i'm not too far off my limit YIKES
RE: Packed lunches, I've been doing this for a while not just to save money but just cos it's easier. Creature of habit and very happy with ham and dairylea on 2 slices of white bread, occasionally I get adventurous and have a cupasoup too !!0
