I had an egg roll for brunch today and then we’ll have pizzas from the freezer for dinner. Not a very healthy day!

A day in the office today. Only tomorrow to go on the petrol front so should be fine now even if the light comes on.
Another day off for the washing machine today - I should have thought of this years ago! Just hope we notice the difference when the electric readings get sent in. I won't be able to do this once the sports season starts again but will make the most of this break whilst I can.
Breakfast - cereal
Lunch - tuna mayo and a pack of ryvita found in my desk drawer
Dinner - YS pie with tinned new potatoes and baked beans
Gotta keep on plodding on.£30,000 £7059.17 DMP consisting of...

I need to spend around £6 at lunchtime so will tally my figures up after that.
I think I'll spend an hour going through my wardrobe on Saturday morning - if I don't find anything to ebay I'm sure I'll find some bits for the charity bag. And I'll feel cleansed!£30,000 £7059.17 DMP consisting of...
