    I spent £10 on a twin pack of elasto-pants so that I can squeeze my gigantic butt into some of my holiday clothes - which are actually 2 sizes too small :o

    Well I failed at the NSD as I needed a place to sit and do some paperwork and needed to plug my computer into a electric socket to finish some accounts. Luckily Mcdonalds came to my rescue and I set up office at a branch Near Monument station that had a power socket under the table.

    So I got 2 hours office rental for a bargain price of 99p for the cost of a Bacon Burger. Yes I got a few looks from staff but hey, im a paying customer! ;)

    Total: £2.99 Inc budgeted donantion

  • Hi all. I've managed a NSD today. Didn't give into temptation last night. I took the bottle of wine that I had bought for a party on Saturday night to the BBQ. Then at the end of the night, I got my own drink back, and enough food to keep us eating for nearly a week. A good night out for free, and more to take home, how great is that! We really do have the very best neighbours!

  • Only spent on food shopping today.... which is budgetted.... but Oh came so we spent £100 :mad::mad: Most definately NOT what the budget is! Love him, but can't wait for him to go back to work! At least he paid the diff out of his own money - he doesn't realise that yet, but he will ;)

    Otherwise a NSD. Gota package to post tomorrow, but NSD planned otherwise.

    Didn't go to town in the end, like the lazy slob I've not changed out of my pj's all day! So NSD for me.

    Asda is calling me though, as it's now open 24 hours I keep thinking of popping up there.
