    Good Evening All

    Ally - Congrats on being DF :T

    Hi to all of the regulars and a BIG welcome to all the newbies, this is a really FAB thread with so many lovely, caring, considerate and supportive people.

    Well we had an early start and went to a carboot, was nice to wander in the sunshine, didn't spend much (just £4 - a Downton Abbey Boxset, 2 runner bean plants and 3 tomato plants), then home for a cuppa before shopping. Unfortunately the day went downhill and I ended up asleep on the sofa all afternoon - oops :o Woke up feeling so much better tho) So today I/we have:

    Carboot
    Checked Bank
    Shopping with list (and coupons)
    Seen to mum
    Listed couple of bits for sale
    Continued purge on Emails
    Completed a few surveys
    Read
    Entered a few comps
    All meals from cupboards/fridge/freezer
    Checked https://www.freepostcodelottery.com - Remember there are now 5 chances to win -
    Checked Lucky Phone, numberplatelotto, Ashleigh, etc

    Have a good day! Love to you all!

    Hi all

    Ally I am another who always finds your posts inspirational, I sometimes think we will never get out of debt although we have made progress.

    Thanks for the advice and links about e-books. Our library does lend free e-books but the choice is rubbish, all sorts of weird books - or books that I read years ago. I did spend 99p on a book but thats all I have spent this weekend. Have done some housework today, took the dog for a long walk with my Mum and been out on the bikes with DS and DH.

    Tired now. Hoping for a dream free sleep tonight. Another busy day tomorrow.
