    Good morning 
    Finally I’m going to manage a NSD today, making it 6/15. 
    The rest of the weekend definitely won’t be as DS1 gets married on Saturday but after the weekend I’m going to be in full frugal mode.

    Have had a couple of spendy days as both DS1 & 2 have been home from Uni for a few days and DS2 was 21 yesterday.

    Back on it today with an NSD.
