Winter fur coat :rotfl:. Spot on description but _pale_ boak!
Quiet weekend here. Still not walking far on this stupid foot, so just been pottering. Not a NSD as no one thought to tell me we were running out of cordial, so I didn't buy any more on Friday :mad:, and a trip to the shop was needed as they couldn't possibly just have water all weekend :mad:. It coud've been worse though, and it's been a very cheap weekend overall.
DH's moods were very erratic last night, makor highs and crashing lows. Just noting that on here incase I need it later.Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Well done on the weight loss and gift card
I will be straight back on my diet when I get back from holiday, dreading weigh in! I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
Well done indeed on weight loss and not putting up with over-coated strawberries! :T
ps. I'd have sent the kids out blackberrying if they wanted an alternative to plain water, or told them not having cordial until the next scheduled shopping expedition was a valuable life-lesson in appreciating luxuries!

Lack of cordial is huge in our house too, imagine having nothing but water to drink :eek: Superman would be emotional and master H would be asking the neighbour over the fence :rotfl::rotfl:Living in a superhero induced haze :A:A

Love how different we all are! Wish I could be a tough Mummy too Robin, but I just think a 42p bottle of value cordial isn't too much to ask for when they've gone without so much! Plus, it's not their fault that their memory-less Dad didn't mention stocks were running low! However, they've had the lecture now about being accountable themselves, so hopefully it won't happen again.
Today has been a NSD though :j. Haven't been far today except school runs etc, spent the day batch cooking, cleaning and ironing. Wild
