1. heating for free as free wood being used
2. No spend day for me
3. Batch cooking soup and curry dishes ready for freezer
4. paid extra £10 off mortgage
aiming to try harder this month. Plenty of stuff to shift to recirculate money into renovation/redecoration

Excellent list, especially these two!! Nom, food sounds lush.

My five for today:
1. In London but have breakfast / coffee with me, lunch will be provided by work so just need evening meal for train (I get home at 2200).
2. Will charge phone / laptop etc. on the train and at work.
3. Check my bank account that had refund for wine I took back, was 'corked' and I don't normally bother but that's £5.99! checked, it's been paid :-)
4. Check to see if Shopmium have paid back the money I'm due.
5. Draft letter to bank for change of name (only 5 years needed to do this!), so then I can use that current account to switch and get some money back

Have a productive day all :T

Tea made ready early and it will easy do 4-6 portions as will bulk it up after first meal.
