    Oh no definitely not. You can all come with me! I've seen a couple of people who have started new threads and wondered if I should do the same? What do you think?

    Went to a party last night and was late so we were the last there. The guests were all friends of my friends. We knew a few of them mostly by sight. However they are all people who seem to have it all, nice houses in the country etc. and most seem to have retired early. Someone asked another guest about their £40 a week food budget, so my ears pricked up - it was interesting to hear that they went on to say how they can't be bothered to budget and spend what they like. Most others were quiet on the subject. It was a real difference to my online friends on here. Really not sure how I feel about it all. Slightly envious? And why didn't I pipe up? I don't care how much I earn in future I'm never going back to wasting money.

    It's so interesting, maybe they all do have it all. ?

    Oh yes and I had a couple of drinks and mY have upset a couple of people. (Unintentionally). Was rubbishing my (soon to be) old bosses and someone said they lived next to someone in the same wider organisation. I was also having a joke about something with someone about the area my old job is in and someone may have overheard. Honestly ne and my big mouypth. And one beer.

    Evening all. What a lovely day. DD made HM curry tonight and I made some oat cookies. We have enough for another night plus a stir fry for tomorrow. :D

    Hope no repercussions from the party SS - at least you're moving on soon. :j

    Curry and stir fry sound good - haven't had a stir fry for ages..right, that's getting onto the meal plan next week :D

    Sorry I've been a bit AWOL, but am reading :)
