  • Must admit i also used a full carton of passata, because the sauce is absolutely beautiful. We would have been scrapping over a few spoonfuls. :D

  • Today has been a mixed day.

    Got on the scales this morning and had lost another pound :D I then proceeded to have lunch out ( fish and chips) and had a share of a curry for tea..i think this is called self sabotage :/

    Back on the treadmill tomorrow.

    It's not what it is called that's important, it's why you are doing it that's important.

  • I have no idea, probably because i was being lazy today and very weak willed at times.

    Like the hamster wheel :D

  • Can't exactly claim a NSD today as the boiler has been fixed..ooh, ouch!

    However, it still worked out cheaper than a 'Let us fix your boiler and charge an excess fee' company. :D

  • Well not quite, but a busy one:rotfl:

    Scores on the doors for Grocery Challenge came in at £220. Slightly over due to a takeaway being bought on Saturday. I came back from camp exhausted and i wasn't cooking! Lazy blighters in the house had left washing up etc. :mad::mad:

    It's times like this i want a flat on my own:o:money:

    Today was spent sorting out house and working in between-so added to the coffers. I also needed a new DBS check:o So had to spend £44 on that, but the good news is that it will only cost another £13 a year (after of course i paid this years fee and the £13 on top:mad::eek:) Talk about a good money making scam:cool:

    Other than that, i am about to start October challenges.

    Started to decorate and weather proof the house for Winter. Windows need sorting, so hope the weather stays good for the next week whilst that gets done. One thing i have learned is never rely on anyone else to get things done-so slowly working my way through the list.

    That's about it.
