Oh orange smarties are definitely the best! Pay day for me today as well. I’ve done my money shuffle but got a bit carried away and put this weeks food money in savings (it’s from last months pay). I’m usually more organised but with the council tax pay out and some overtime I had more in my account than usual. I either don’t shop this week (not really an option) or take it back out of savings once I’ve shopped which I hate doing. I’m working Monday so no long weekend for me.

I used to love the plastic tops with the letters under…green was my top of choice. A green S and I’d hit the jackpot! Also, if you punched out the card at the bottom and loosened the plastic top, you could blow down the empty tube and shoot the plastic lid across the room….just me? 😁
@southern_chick oh no to working Monday..boo! And taking back from savings is painful, but reversing a mistake should be justifiable 🫤Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

thanks WW it is a justifiable mistake but I hate making a mistake with finances. I’ll see if I can absorb it in the next month’s budget first. I agree with it being boo to working on Monday I’ll be in at 7 and no idea when I’ll finish. I’ll take a stash of chocolate to get me through but as there’ll be at least 4 of us I’ll have to share 😱😱 xxslowly working towards being MF one small over payment at a time :T3

That's what I said when I saw them. At least, as I was wearing a mask no-one could see me licking my lipsPlease put out food and water for the birds and hedgehogs2 -
@SuperMoose I’ve found I do a lot of muttering under my mask…I’m a bit worried when I stop wearing one that I’ll forget and look like a crazy person 🤣Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien
