Hi El!! I love hummous too, although haven't made any for AAAAGGGESSSSS!!!

I have some chickpeas in the cupboard though, so may have to get the blender out.........:D

I am glad that you found a rambling group - you will be doing those harder walks sooner than you think!

elantan

it is miz it really is

well i got my wages through for job no2 today i had planned on putting them by to see how we are going but i have now been informed i have a 25th anniversary to go to and my nephews (he isnt really but i call him that) party to go to so have put half by and am going to use half for the two things...i'm not very happy about it to be honest but i know that £70 isnt enough to get by in the week as it is never mind adding more for parties...

i have had to put £20 in the car that went on to the visa as well so visa spends are sitting at £65 hmmmm not quite getting the hang of this am i ...will see how this month pans out then re-asses for next month i think
