    :T Congratulations on the debt payment, Charlies Angel, comiserations (sp?) on the bottle of coke :rotfl:

    Well done on the NSD Fizzel! :j

    Bails - I looked out the rolled-up-under-the-desk chart and have started analysing dates to see how many spend days I can allow myself in March. It's going to be tough, as I have to fit in a visit to the parents and then we have days off at Easter when I'll be free to get out and about. If I have no more spend days this month, that will make it 10 in total. I think I'll aim for 8 in March and make sure I don't fail on my grocery challenge. Oops! :o
