    All sounding good Beanie 😁👍 Love the Snoopy watch 😁
    January spends - £587.58
  • Yay to UC! Glad your DS is settling too and paving his way in life. It's a relief when children are happy and settled.

    Someone at work has that Snoopy on their watch and I was swaying towards wanting one of those watches just for a picture like that on it (briefly I don't have a budget for it 🤣).
    Emergency Fund goal - £717.77/1500
    Weight loss goal 1 - 0/7 lb
