I managed to get off my rear and do a few bits this morning, so I've tidied round, hoovered, washed and dried the blankets from the sofas, and made up some bacon and cheese turnovers to use up some bacon and pastry in the fridge. I had one lot for lunch and the rest have gone in the freezer. I've a little bacon left so will use that for lentil soup, which will also use up some carrots.
I also sat down and watched the last two episodes of Lockerbie, that was good."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee7 -
