    HHD - Knowing where the money goes has become second nature since I joined MSE :T Not that I have loads to keep track of but 6 months ago I'd struggle to know where any of it had gone :o xx

    Hello Everybody :)

    Still at the van. Still reading along. Still keeping a tab of spends. Still logging reciepts on RH and Shoppix. Still got quite a bit of caravan spends left. Still got some of my spends left, though not much - treated myself to 2 pairs of shoes. Still making my way through a glass of wine I poured a couple of hours ago :D

    Hope you're all having a good week. xx

    Hello Everybody, thanks for dropping in, we've had a lovely few days away :)

    Day 12/30, Prolific £3.05 cleared, Spends - need to have a count up :D

    Back home now and working my way through a pile of washing :o It's been a busy day in other ways as well and although I've not lost track of my money, I need to have a count up and sort it all out - but that's a job for tomorrow.

    Hope you're all keeping well. xx
