Thanks folks. I knew you would all have some good ideas, and when it comes to food I need all the help can get.:rotfl:
Another work week done :j and a weekend to look forward to. I'm going to spend at least two hours per day decluttering. I'm having another night of " oh my god, how much stuff do I have to sort". I have a large bottle of babysham, a Christmas gift, which I'm going to drink while doing some tonight. Things need to be sorted as I've been thinking about my future and plans I would like to achieve.

Enjoy the babycham. Toast the future you and keep declutteringIf you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

I didn't realise they still made babycham! I hope you enjoyed it. I try and do self reward to make myself carry on - finish the shelf I can have a cup of tea and so on.My mortgage free diary: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6498069/whoops-here-comes-the-cheese0

It was awful and they shouldn't still make it. Urgh I'll stick to real ale.
Currently in the middle of decluttering hell and failing spectacularly. Also listening to a radio station playing music from when I was young, hopeful and vibrant. A perfect mix to lower the mood. Where did time go, where did that person go, when did the middle aged, frumpy old bag arrive?
A bookshelf looking at me with books of hope and a planned future which never arrived.
Feeling my age today and craving excitement. Or I'm turning I to Rea from Butterflies. Anyone remember that?
Small town blues.
Get a grip girl, eh.
I'll come back when the miserable old s0d b#givers off.1 debt v's 100 days chapter 34: T3sco bank CC £250/£525.24 47.59%

I did have a moment of surprise when I read it - baby cham and real ale such opposite ends of the spectrum.
Just think about the clothes and the haircuts we had back then. I was reading this on the bbc earlier and it made me shudder to think of the way we dressed at school.My mortgage free diary: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6498069/whoops-here-comes-the-cheese0 -

:rotfl: Some dreadful styles there. I was more of an indie/goth in the 80's so dodged most of the styles of the day.We all have days where we feel like that Hunni you moan away parsnip xx

Too true INOD. I definitely relate to her cooking skills.:rotfl:
A day off for me today and I have piles of alterations to do. Not my favorite thing but its all money. I do have to pop to the shop but have a list. I must stick to it. I'm also go to have a mooch through fabric stash and see what I can come up with for me.

Fabric mooching sounds like fun! I am looking at some fleece to copy a jumper I love... Mostly sorted in my head how to do it but copying the collar will take some doing. Won't promise it will keep me out of mischief but I may moan a little. However: nothing ventured, nothing gained, and while I prevaricate over it you will have made something nice and actually be wearing it. What do you have in mind?I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)
