    Well my current exclusions from spending are;
    • petrol
    • milk
    • one exercise class *

    * Don't know why I included that as I hardly ever go to any which is why I have a stomach that can do it's own Mexican Wave!

    With your permission I would like to include the following
    • One printed sheet relating to house purchase

    I get the impression I may be doing a few one sheets of printing, and I need a copy of the quote from the solicitors for my mortgage meeting tomorrow.

    SO....before this turns into a Ronnie Corbutt sketch :rotfl: (although usually his sketches weren't that funny) I shall claim

    Spent £3.20 to post a birthday pressie so am dithering about whether this should be a no spend day....... Decided that the spend should form part of the presents original cost I.e. It was money committed to when I bought the pressie, therefore it is NSD 2 :T

    Phew.
