Thanks HH I am my own worst enemy.
Shopping was £21.39 , I am very pleased with that as the fridge was bare.
The DGC have exhausted me, as the weather was so sunny we strode of to the park and play area . It was freezing but so lovely to see the sun. We managed an hour then came home.
Hot bath now , will then think about dinner.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

I agree - it’s easy to sink back and not be bothered. But I do think you need to take your opportunities while you can. The theatre trip is a good start and I I bet you really enjoy it.Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟
