    Do you cook with a multi-layer steamer? Only use one ring! 
    I have one saved in my list as a want. Forgotten about those, we always had one of those going as kids.

    Gas and electricity 24 for the week. Keeping steady so I'm happy for now
    Account v overdrawn but aiming to have it at zero by September. Had a few unexpected and and unavoidable costs this month on top of the Mots we hadn't saved for. All other debts on 0 percent. Not updated Sig as overdraft is changeable throughout the month. Not used an overdraft since I was a student aside from the odd hiccup or day whilst in transferred money about. Maybe I'll have to look at overdraft amount day before my pay day each month to track the damage and hopefully see the progress.

    On the plus side childcare is paid till end of term and I have the money allocated in my budget just at the wrong end of the month so had to use the overdraft. Honestly I've been so bad with my finances this year. Must get back in the wagon

    Good news - one of my defaults dropped off..one more to go in October. And will pay less in national insurance this month
    Not so good news DH signed off sick after injury. Only gets SSP. 
    Hmm, I'll leave it there for now. Off to menu plan from the cupboards :smile:
