Okay, I'd like some magical ways to double the capital I have, thankyouverymuch
In other news, it's a day off today, I'm off up to London to see Ian Hislop's exhibition at the British Museumcan't get a return ticket because the bus is needed to get there, so its a travelcard - £19 odd now. Never mind, free entry with my sister's gifted membership
Hope everyone has a good day
Hmm, well I'm the last person to be able to offer any financial advice so I'll pass on that:(. I'm sure others will have good advice though.
I envy your access to so many excellent museums and interesting exhibitions. Whatever it costs you today will be money well spent and I hope you have a wonderful time:beer:. Nourishment for the soul is priceless IMO.0 -

Glad you finally got your calculations done KC! :j thank you for sharing them. That French apartment has been a right old nuisance hasn't it?? :eek: Would you sell it when the next lease runs out? I imagine it would be a relief to have it out of your hair! :eek:
Enjoy your trip :j0 -

Just shows it can result in different behavioural insights each time as I know she's an 'old hand' at it. I'm posting this here as I know rtandon is a regular contributor to your diary...
Aww CBC - that was so sweet of you to 'track me down' - I've been over to yours regularly reading (using my mobile) but it is a pitb to try and post on the forums from the phone!
KC - the post was nowt much to read - lol - just me wittering on about food as usual as keeping to a budget in that department is my biggest challenge - especially as food prices continue to creep up & I'm pre-destined to be a bit of a hoarder, coming from more wintery climes!4 YEARS 10 MONTHS DEBT FREE!!!

Enjoy your day out, it looks like an really interesting exhibition.
We haven't got much planned in the way of days out until the spring. Since we retired, we've been fortunate to have a holiday each year in February or March, so we haven't got into the habit of booking any outings at this time of the year. This year we haven't got a holiday booked until May
It will be really dull if we sit here until April without any days out at all, so I will have to have a look and see if there's anything we fancy doing.Early retired - 18th December 2014
