It will be a no spends day today. Number 9 for January and possibly the last one. We shall see.
Breakfast and lunch are from stores. It was crumpets for breakfast and we have both taken our packed lunches to work. Dinner tonight is at our local with their BOGOF burger deals. We have a voucher that will cover burgers for us both plus a couple of pints each. So a free dinner.
Tonight I need to remember to plug the van in and turn the fridge on. Must get a joint of pork out of the garage freezer for Sunday as well while I am in there. Might get my clothes sorted out for the weekend as well and put in the van.
Just 7.5 hours of work to get through first and if the rest of this week has been anything to go by it will be a stressful 7.5 hours at that.0 -
Happy birthday! Hope you have a lovely day ahead, and enjoy dinner this evening

Definitely not a no spends day today. We are off to York for a couple of days.
No chance of a lie in. The dog hears everyone heading out to work this morning and came nudging us to get up. Who needs an alarm clock 😂
Breakfast this morning is at McDonald's on the way to the designer outlet. Going to do a bit of clothes shopping before we head to the campsite in York.
We are eating on the van tonight. We are out tomorrow with friends so I think today will be a more steady one! Hope so anyway!2 -
Happy birthday @RelievedSheff enjoy York! Love Humdinger xx1
