    Finances have been sorted. It's the start of the new 4 week budget period tomorrow so have closed off the spending pots. There was an underspend of £115.62, £5.62 has gone to the Christmas pot, £60 to the vet pot and £50 to the house pot. CC balance has been cleared. Payday on Wednesday but will leave the money shuffling until I get back. 

    Still need to book the return taxi. Might go and fetch Mr SA another pack of flu tablets just in case, also need another pack of dog food as I don't think there's enough. Will combine the shopping trip with dog walking.

    Mr SA keeps trying to sneak extra pairs of shoes into his case. I think a pair to travel in and 2 in the case is more than enough for someone who doesn't walk! I always have to check his case for scruffy crocs he might have sneaked in, I usually end up locking it the night before so he can't put anything else in it.
