Learning to walk before I run

Ed, thats amazing!  Well done you - its a reminder to me to start doing a few more mse wheezes again, with the way the utility bills are going.

£2.52 paid into my SIPP last night (£3.15 after tax relief).

Magic no hangover pills have not arrived yet and we're off to the beer festival Let's hope they're here when we get back! Beer festival has a foodbank as their charity partner, planning on donating all of the loose change that has built up since we got here 6 weeks ago. Should be a win win situation - I don't need to carry cans of soup and corned beef and they get cash for buying what's most needed 

Not much finance to report - Prolific is coming up to the £5 mark for a withdrawal and I've been doing a fair bit of virement from our artificially inflated "extension" pot.

Enjoy your festival

Dear all, £2 bonus on TCBee for the English bank holiday (spent £5 via site, get £2 bonus cashback). I tend just to purchase a supermarket gift voucher via T0pG1ftC@rds for simplicity

I also need to know! Not drank any alcohol in over 2 weeks since I have turned into Ms Doolittle so when I start its going to hurt

Sorry folks, was not being cryptic, just not advertising. The magic pills are sold by a company called Surviv0r L1fe L1mited. They work for me, but they only work if they bloody well arrive and you take them. Unfortunately they did not in this case, I used more than my fair share of the beer tokens as Mrs E only had two small glasses of prosecco and a couple of non-alcoholic beers and I ended up feeling very ill I am definitely "off" the alcohol for a while, I feel I made a total fool of myself. Mrs E insists the optics weren't as bad as I believe and that I was a happy drunk, but I'm ashamed that I set a bad example for DD1 

I have never considered myself to have a problem with alcohol, but I definitely have a problem with moderation!

I hear you! I really struggle with self-control where food and alcohol are concerned 🙁

Don't beat yourself up, Ed. Cheese poisoning gets to us all eventually 
Off to Google magic pills.
