    The meal planning really does work and also try and have a day or two a week where you plan to make something out of what's there already - can lead to some odd combinations but drags the shopping bill down a bit.

    I guess I know where I need to cut down. Been drinking far too many fizzy drinks coz I've been stocking up on bogof's for a start. Beer aswell. :whistle:

    I do a tenner a week on fruit alone but refuse to give that up coz it's about the only healthy thing I eat! :rotfl:

    I'm back with my ex-fiancee. Been about 7 weeks or so now. :)

    She's not an MSE member but she needs to be. She's a fellow debtor! :doh:

    Ahhhh Trike, it has to be said, my roast potatoes were absolutely sexual! :T

    The outisdes were a bit hard when I took them out but once the gravy got on them. :drool:

    Gravy was a bit of a nightmare though and needed 'bodging', but all in all it was pretty damn good. :D
