We pay a fiver a month and a cup of tea to our window cleaner - used to be £4 but that was 25 years or so ago! We aren't a big house but we do have two bays and two glazed doors so he's excellent value.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Morning, happy Saturday 🥂
I need to pick up a few grocery bits this morning, it will probably be cheaper to walk down to Lidl for what I need. I have a £2 voucher to use there, I won’t spend enough for the £10 one this month. Mr M have sent me a £15 off £60 spend voucher for online deliveries so most of my grocery shopping will be coming from there next week.DS and the GKs are coming later. DS is going to help Mr SA put the fence panel back up that was blown down in the storms. It’s a bit battered but will do for now.Prosecco already chilling in the fridge. Making chickpea, tomato and spinach curry for tonight’s dinner 😋I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7 -

Wow SA your diary is busy
Glad the appointment went ok - has Mr SA got over the need to rest yet? I hope so.
We had a window cleaner, but he was a scam, said he cleaned them but never did so I do them at Easter and at no other time!
Dog 2 has in the past left the kitchen (hard floor) and thrown up on the carpet AND the rug, also he once came upstairs to find me and managed to throw up down the stairs....
I can't drink Prosecco at all, shame as it looks so nice!
Have a good weekend XXXXNevertheless she persisted.3 -
The GKs have been and gone, several sausage rolls cooked and consumed, a couple of diva-type tantrums from DGD and DGS happy to sit eating sausage rolls and watch You Tube. I am exhausted 🥱 The kitten hid from them, I found her under the treadmill in the spare room 😆
DS and Mr SA put the fence panel back up. It will need replacing permanently at some stage but is secure for now.Trip to Lidl was productive, got what I needed and only spent £4.49 plus 10,000 steps done in one trip. Mr SA and the dog went with me so the dog had a good walk too.Lots of washing done and line dried.
Now sat relaxing with my feet up listening to Rylan 😁I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4
