  • Well it's a good job I didn't declare yesterday as I popped to get the paper but hubby wanted a few bits and gave me some pennies but not enough to cover it all.

    So I have £5.89 left in my purse so spent £9.11, I was expecting to spend £6 so actually not that bad.

    Will carry £5 over to next week. Although I'm not sure how to budget for he week ahead as we're hoping to go away for a few days to the seaside, baba's first time. :D

    Will set for miscellaneous spends but not include those three days and see how I go.

    Off to set up new thread now.
