    Not a no spends day today. We have filled the car up with diesel this morning and we have a home shopping delivery coming this evening after work.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was crumpets, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is cajun pork loin chops with smoked paprika chips and vegetables.

    Tonight's jobs are:
    • sorting and putting away the shopping delivery
    • vacuuming the house
    • cleaning the bathrooms
    • walking the dog

    Something nice to look forward to this weekend and what a bargain at £12.50. 
    Unfortunately the Aire becomes part of the campsite again later this month and the prices will increase accordingly again.

    One to bear in mind for us next winter though if we enjoy it this weekend. I'm sure we will.

    I think you spend more time in that van than at home haha, enjoy. If the weather is anything like it is today I’m sure it’ll be a nice weekend.

    I'm hoping that the weather is going to stay like this. It is very pleasant in the sunshine. Perfect walking weather :)

    I went a walk along the river with a friend this afternoon…..we went out wrapped up but was shredding hats, scarves and unzipping coats before long. The sun was shining beautifully on the water 😃

    It will be a no spends day today. Number 7 for March.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was a toasted tea cake, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is some nice Dexter steak burgers from the farm shop served with air fried chips, beer battered onion rings, corn on the cob and homemade coleslaw. 

    Tonight's jobs are:
    • plugging in the van and turning on the fridge
    • load of washing (which should hopefully be dry when we get home)
    • making tomorrow nights Shepherd's Pie (filling is in the slow cooker so just need to make the root veg mash and assemble)
    • walking the dog
