    Kirsty thought you had paid off a loan/debt past few days and had just the interest to pay then it was clear? Hence the treat :D

    I've got stress (from DB's)for at least 4 weeks so if you see me on here at crazy hour please to not be concerned. I'll catch up when I can

    Yesterday's alternative treats - £7 for a new watch from charity shop (not needed) v. £1.75? KK doughnut out grocery shopping.

    The doughnut won!!!! :j

    Yes MH folks - substituting expensive treats for cheaper treats is perfectly allowed. Just because you are a paddington doesn't mean no treats!!!! :cool:

    And i just flicked propylene glycol & vegetable glycerine into my eye and boy it's sore LOL 178.gif

    Ooh, nice PAD LMD :T

    My offering is a sneaky £10 from DH's account to his CC. It's his payday tomorrow, so he won't notice.

    Thanks for keeping tabs this month Jet x I'm happy to take on August, unless anyone else has a burning desire to keep count...?
