    The whole world is going through the same thing, all we can do is look after ourselves and those around us. There will be a turning point. 

    Any money made is good, all helps boost the pot or goes towards other treats.

    Enjoy your pamper, you will feel better after your haircut.

    My friend kidnapped me in her car and took me to a Christmas garden centre which was lovely (as it will close this week due to lockdown) then we went to an Aldi and i bought some foods for lockdown. I spent £33 but on pizza, pies etc that i normally cant carry and it was such a nice shop. One day when i can drive......

    Ooh, Christmas garden centre sounds lovely! I'm hoping not to eat quite as much as I did in the last lockdown. Well, maybe more fruit!

    Fantastic outing, I do love a good browse at the shiny stuff, and plants too! Maybe I need to talk nicely to a relative before lock down Thursday, might be my last chance for a little while.... Must. resist. spending. urges.... :D

    I've heard they are actually staying open, perhaps no need to rush unless you want a trip out Ren.

    I assumed they were closing for lockdown but maybe not after what MF said. 
    In the end i have made £4.40 from music magpie, every little bit helps.  After my bills are paid i will have £100 left for daily things like bread & fun etc (also i have £100 in my xmas account for next months credit card bill hurrah). .

    I've heard they are staying open, seems to have pleased gardeners but annoyed non-gardeners!
    You can eak your money out 🤗

    Im eaking in style as £100 is a fortune!!!! My hairdresser just came and i used my money box funds to pay her. We counted our blessings, yes work is stressful but i am grateful to have a job, we have our health (mine is not too amazing) but we are alive and I have the campest Christmas tree ever!!!!! I have non urgent marking to do in case i get upset by the US election which i will keep on in the background.
