So it's 6pm on friday night, we've finally made it to the end of the week :T :T I don't have any plans for tonight other than pj's and chilling on the sofa
Ds should be at his Dads this weekend, but once again he hasn't got ds' train ticket sorted (gets them free through work), so ds is staying at home. I'm more than happy for him to be here but at no point does his father bother to ask if its convenient :cool:
So tomorrow I'm having the adverts attached to the car, then Sunday there is footie on the tellyMortgage Total: £55,900 / £75,000

Ticking along nicely so far - I've cleared the washing basket, tidied and cleaned the conservatory, been to the local shop and got ds a new winter duvet reduced to £7 :T, been to Sainsburys and they have got rid of the xmas light recycling bit (was there yesterday evening), so they ended up going in the normal bin. I did recycle the batteries and posted on the post for the lady who used to live here. They had sold out of Daily Mails so missed out on those nectar points :cool: I did also spend £4.50 on squirty cream and food recycling bags.Mortgage Total: £55,900 / £75,000
