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 - oopsWoke 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.0
