    Had a wee word with him when he got off and I think I met the devil today. He's disguised as a moustached old man in Edinburgh on a 26 bus and definitely wanting to share his bad monday morning mood with the world.

    It was probably the ONLY thing he could share, bgb. :rolleyes:

    Sounds like a real miseryguts. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I have been really really good today! I trying so hard to be a MSE convert!! :T

    My cousin called me today to go out shopping with her, but I turned her down OMG! did I want to go , but I thought know, I would have spent money I haven't got and try and justify spending it to myself, so instead, I stayed at home and refered my OH to some cashback sites I am a member of !!!!

    total amount spend today £1.19 on some puff pastry as I can not make it to save my life and I made a chicken and musroom pie with mash and veggies for tead with yesterday left over chicken from sunday dinner.....

    So although my intention was to spend nothing! the ingredients I already had in the cupboard and fridge more or less made a feel meal, and then just use the £1.19 to buy the puff pasrty, so I think I am getting better :):D
    :) If you like what I say please say thanks :)
  • A NSD for me!!
