Round and round the overdraft....soon to be no more

Lesson observation went really well and I had postive feedback from the head. Went home Thursday evening and then spent the night either in the bathroom vomiting or lying on the bed.

Felt truly rotten. Went into school (silly I know but teachers are renowned for not staying at home) battled through the day and went home at 4pm. Cancelled on my friend who I was supposed to be seeing for drinks and a meal, fell asleep for 8 hours and woke up this morning feeling much better.

DP and I have just done the food shop and a bit of Christmas shopping too. I went into Sainsbury's and Doubled up my Nectar points so basically got £20 for £10 worth of points. We bought some wine for Christmas (if it lasts that long :rotfl:)

Glad your lesson observations went well. There are a few horrible bugs going around my school at the moment. Hope you are feeling better soon.

Felt grottier and grottier as the day went on and woke in the night feeling awful.

Had a ton of work to do today so I’ve spent most of the day doing that, plus the ironing and a bit of Mum-taxi duties. Thank heavens for my DP making lunch, not that I’ve been feeling that hungry!

Morning Louby,

That's an excellent week you've had! Are you finding you're consistently around £60 for a weeks worth of food? I try and play a game with myself to see if I can get a weeks worth of shopping cheaper than I did the week previous.

You all sorted for Xmas?

louby40

Speky it’s between 50-60 a week for food.

We eat well, plan meals and have little wastage. We freeze any leftovers.

This weekend we are off to Manchester, Christmas markets, meal at Jamie’s and then seeing John Bishop. Can’t wait!
