Busy weekend , I have had visitors, so busy busy busy. Today has been all about catching up after they left for home .Washing bedding , towels , remaking beds. Back in my own bed tonight , looking forward to that.
Have done Christmas decorations today , mimimal this year as I am not really here over Christmas, working some of it , then away for New Year. Not putting a tree up , I have a twig tree with lights and I love it.
Dinner dance last night as predicted shoes lasted an hour ! Very cheap night as drinks provided.
Shopping today £20.49 from Mr A . No petrol needed yet. Low spend weekend , £5 on a new smoke detector, extra £5 on milk and bread for visitors. £2 raffle on Saturday night. £5 secret santa present.
Sold old iPhone on music magpie through topcash back ( thanks Scott ) for the tip.
Bought train tickets to North east for new year £29.50 got nectar points for that. Read meter for this month consumption going up for gas , but in credit by £100 at the minute. This will even out by march properly.
I am out on Thursday for next Christmas night out, meal with old workmates, won't be very expensive. Last week at work, it cost £4 in collections for different things.
This month is definitely testing and taxing on your budget. Think that's it , apart from saying thank you to everyone who has commented .

I try to reply to a few but I can't keep up with so many and do tend to just pop in to those I feel closer too.
Well done on the NSD. We where discussing petrol prices yesterday. 1.24 at my local :eek: but in B town at Mr S it was much less yet only 10 minutes away. Well 10 minutes when the traffic on those main roads aren't as crazy! x“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0 -
Traffic was crazy tonight , took me forever to get home . Yep Mr S is cheaper than near me that's where I shall be filling up.0

I'm going to be eating beans and rice more often. It is a nutritious and delicious meal. I love black beans and some grain along with a salad a maybe a slice of avocado and a wedge of lime
Well done posting the mobile.If 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 try and spot new diaries, and at least say hello as its pretty lonely when you start a diary and you feel like you are wittering to yourself. I imagine it really peeks in January.
That's a good price on the petrol cumbria, it was about 10p/litre more when I looked yesterday.My mortgage free diary: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6498069/whoops-here-comes-the-cheese0 -
JoJoC the recipe I use for the three bean curry is from beaniesvegan kitchen.com. I did try to link it to the post but it didn't work.
I use different beans each time I make it for a bit of variety, it's cheap to make as well.0
