Hi Dizzy
She is doing really well thank you. Kind of you to ask. Suffers a bit from colic in the evenings but I know they grow out of it. It's lovely seeing how small and soft she is, I forget my whopping great 7 year old was ever like this so just going to enjoy every moment.

PAD of £8.60 for me today please
Kirsty - Manchester market is very big and spread out between Victoria and Picadilly stations. It's got a good range of stall, lots of food stalls in front of the Town Hall area in St Anne's Square and all the usual jewellery, hand crafted items, decorations, ethnic items, scarves, bags etc. We spent a good couple of hours there and then also if you wanted there are large versions of all the normal shops as it is in the area of the Arndale Centre. I went to the Birmingham one with a friend several years ago now and that was really good too.Every penny's a prisoner
PADding is addictive

TGIF folks! The weekend beckons and with it perhaps the chance of some sleep...zzzz...
Thursday's PADs totalled £216.86 - well done team :T I've already dipped into today's posts and am super excited with payday PADding already :rotfl: Sunshine - are you raring to go for December my lovely?
I'm liking the sound of some of the Christmas markets - I'm such a Scrooge that I usually avoid those like the plague, but I'm determined to make more of an effort this year, so may well venture out...
PAD today for me is £68.40 split between various things x0 -
Wow, some amazing PADS today TTFTM and LMD :T
£10.00 to MBNA for me today please
Sounds good jet9cat, thanks. I might have to have a look - I have loved Birmingham the past few years but walked through last night and it's like a mirror at a buffet. Same things on each stall, such a lack of variety. Think I will try and give Manchester a go and see if that's any better.
Dizzy, I was with you ref christmas markets until I met OH who lived next to the Birmingham one for a few years, I couldn't escape it when I visited so I just threw myself into it and actually loved it! Makes me feel christmassy rather than grumpy (which I am at the moment having been subjected to christmas music for 3 hours last night, and some more this morning when it isn't even December :rotfl:Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭0 -
I've been spending (oops) £25 on a designer summer suit for church (not too short a skirt) in charity shop (oops)
Just because I'm debt free doesn't make me perfect!!!
But apart from not having my PJ day yesterday (that I needed!!!) - all good here. Getting bike fixed for a few quid (No I do not need bar bag - I need a basket) and freegle and gotten over my 'I need a new this that and the other on Black Friday' temptations
I have a name for that - result
E:dance:
I believe in the power of PAD

It was mostly Mariah Carey with a bit of Bing Crosby thrown in occasionally, on a loop.....I was ready to smash the CD player by the time we left :rotfl:Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭0
