Forgot to mention. We might end up making a guest appearance on Million Pound Motorhomes on Channel 5. The film crews were there and got some footage of us, Milo and the dog.
We had a brief appearance on Jamie and Jimmy's Food Farm talking about Yorkshire pudding of all things 🤣🤣🤣1 -
Oh I love Jamie and Jimmy
What a claim to fame

£139 sent to the Paypal Credit account which pays that account off. £100 sent to the savings account and £50 sent to the Premium Bonds.
Unfortunately the car repair bill went onto Credit Card 5 so that is now a higher balance. But it is 0% at least so we will keep plugging away at it and getting the balance down. Card 6 needs balance transferring before too long so I think that will go over to Card 5 as well. Make it just the two card payments per month and tidy things up a bit.
Not a no spends day today. We were packing the van up last night and realised we were very low on rum and gin so we have been and picked some up this morning. Tesco had some good Clubcard offers on again for spirits and mixers.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was cereals, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is stilton quiche with chips and vegetables.

Another one bites the dust! Can't have you running out of rum and gin 😆 I wish I'd realised just how many litres of spirits you can bring back from the EU now we're out of it - 9 litres each at £12 a litre for most spirits. I only brought 1 back.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)1

You balances are looking good! All those settled accounts
Well done
