DH has had a flurry of sales this afternoon so they've been packed and posted. I've made an effort to use up some of the stash of hoarded boxes rather than the purchased ones, ready before they are restashed as we start xmas shopping in earnest. The cupboard is looking much tidier and emptier!

Another sale packed and posted today.
I've had a good look at my finances this morning and updated the spreadsheet. I'm still on track for retirement, and there is plenty of scope within my spending to cut things back a little. So that's all positive, I just need to do it now!
