    A few more coins gone in this week - hopefully will start to build it up quite a bit over the next couple of months. Managed to save about £60 on paint this month due to DIY Fairy's post about free paint voucher in a magazine ! (Running out of disguises when I go in the shop now ! lol)

    Evening all,
    Hope you're all well this evening, just been offered another 8 hours overtime tomorrow, so I can feel another debt getting a hammering a week on Thursday, when I get paid for it. This no spend Feb is playing havoc with me not having any change to put in my pot, but I suppose it will be worth it in the end.
    Anyone heard from Stunty or mumzy, it's very quiet without them around!

    Take care everyone
