    I've been Money Tipped! Debt-free and Proud!

    yes!!!
    .....:)



    Excellent, I look forward to it!


    I already go to the gym 4x a week and swimming 2x a week, so I already have that bit covered!
    Was planning on reducing the shopping bill by £20 a week, so right on track for that too.
    Tv will be a bit of a challenge, but all in the name of fun, 'eh!

    Count me in Kat!

    My postings were sporadic at best last month - but will endeavour to improve on this and my gym attendance!

    I want to get back on the MSE wagon once and for all...

    Thanks Kat, count me in for July.

    15 NSD should be doable although this month is a bit tougher as the kids break up on 18th and we are away on hols at the end of the month. I will have to make it count before then.

    I'm IN please Kat!

    I LOVE that book "How I Lived a year on £1 a day" by Kath Kelly. I have a copy which I'm going to retrieve from the cupboard and read again. What she did was truly amazing and I never felt she received enough recognition for it.

    Could someone post a link to the diary thread where this is being discussed? Ta muchly xx

    By the way, the book is well worth getting - loads of info in the back as well, websites, organisations, etc etc. And it's a brilliant entertaining read!!

    Hi Kat,

    I notice you have put me in as No 8. I think you usually reserve this for Stewby.

    I don't mind changing :)
