    Evening all :)
    Today I have:
    Walked dog
    Vacuumed round downstairs
    Load of washing, dried outside
    Ordered 400g of black peppercorns from Am*zon. I keep not finding them in Lidl, and small quantities in Mr S or Mr W (our alternatives here) are expensive. Can't face the huge Asd* as I can never find anything in there. I also had a voucher from a survey site that completely covered the cost :)
    Worked this afternoon
    All food from home - nothing spent except for the peppercorns and I didn't spend 'proper' money on those.
    No central heating, though we do have the stove alight (with kettles on top) this evening

    @DawnW Thanks for the strawberry plant info

    Today I have/will:

    1.  Checked online banking
    2.  Cleaned car inside and check tyres, screen wash etc.
    3.  Meals from stores, have got a leftover curry out of the freezer so will cook some rice with that to save on takeaway.
    4.  Duolingo Welsh/Ukranian
    5.  Home pedicure as decided to go to Cardiff yesterday instead of today and my feet are killing me.  However I did use the JL free cake and hot drink voucher and got my free truffles from M&S.
    6.  Surveys

    Tesco: £1361.19, Vanquis: £2644.73, Very: £563.08, Next: £1636.95, M&S: £1049.92. As of 5th February 2024. Slava Ukraini
