    i have to go to a leaving do at work this afternoon, but im only buying him a pint and I shall nurse a coke! Aside from that, I have a bit of shopping to do on my way home so I shall do it on the moped to prevent any silly spending. I have a smallish backpack and the box on the back, so I have to be careful with space!

    I should only need to spend £20 in all honesty as ive still got loads of food in, I just need to get a few bits for work lunches, bread, milk, a bit of veg and may buy a tart tin to make some quiche over the weekend. its a great work lunch too as it freezes well and goes with a bit of salad so would be a good investment.

    When I get home this evening, I think ill watch a movie on TV and have an early night as tomorrow is cleaning day and I have a lot to catch up on!

    Staying home, doing washing and cleaning the house. Much needed!!!!

    Hoping for a NSD today..... Will report later!

    In profit technically cause i got £36 back on my Dorothy Perkins card, refund on charges!!! Well only the £8 per charge difference between that and OFT ruling, better than a kick up the bum!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
    (it's part of my charm!)
