    Hi Pap - I've been out most of the day, myself, so I'm kind of glad you were late posting the thread.
    I spent the money that I had intended to spend yesterday - £3.00 at the Post Office, £1.25 on a birthday card for my dad and £1.60 on coffee.
    Nothing else - went to my parents' for lunch - free. :T :T

    See you tomorrow :wave:

    Well, to be honest it wasn't entirely me. I didn't take my passport with me and despite being 23 co-op always insist on ID-ing me. I was too lazy to walk back to my flat to get it and walk back!

    I have to go to lidls in a couple of days for my veg, so will probably succombe to a bottle of cheapy plonk then.
