    I've welcomed in April with spending [hangs head in shame]. And I think I'll be spending tomorrow too.
    @jay1_2 please don't feel you have to hang your head! Everyone has to spend sometimes. My month is getting off to a similar start, I've got home from quite a spendy trip in March and straight away have had to organise some car stuff and pay the plumber, sort a chimney out. Also everyone needs treats sometimes. It's life xx :)
