    This is so hard!!!

    I bought biscuits for work yesterday and kicked myself for ruining what could have been a NSD - But then I remembered work is pretty hard going at the moment and if some jammie dodgers help alleviate just a little of the stress, then it's money well spent - sort of....

    Fingers crossed for a NSD today.

    I’m totally with you, I hope the stress eases, I know how vile it can be at work - and be proud you didn’t splash the cash on posher biscuits! 😀

    NSD for me please 🙏 

    Our mortgage offer has now come through for December, we have reduced the term, which I'm proud of considering the price rises. 

    Moved a small amount into my savings. Nothing to write home about but it all counts 😁
