    I don't need any encouragement to buy expensive skincare products BW... I'm addicted to buying lotions and potions (I spent another £62.49 in Aveda whilst in NYC :o) but I'm often told that I have good skin and that I don't look my age so, whilst I can afford it (chickens are cheaper than children!), I'll continue to buy them :D

    Of to bed now (after washing my face and putting lots of gunk on of course!)

    Nighty night x

    Mr MWC is still away and I still don't have any fishfingers so for dinner tonight I had another favourite... a cheese & onion crisp sandwich!

    3 eggs again today but I haven't had a blue one all week :huh: I think Miss F may be hiding them from me :naughty: so I'll have to:search: in the garden

    I couldn't wait until payday to make my next OP so after a review of all my accounts (I've got 8 different savings accounts - it does Mr MWC's head in :p) I've just transferred £500 from my savings to the further advance. Total OP for October = £1,075 :D

    My weekend started at 1 o'clock :j
    More groceries delivered - £10 off, a free loaf of bread and a £5 goodwill voucher to use next time because the BB date on a box of cereal bars in today's delivery was 3 months ago :eek:
    I have dug out the boggy mud/woodchip/poo from the bit of the chicken run that isn't covered and spread it round the rest of the garden this afternoon. I won't need to buy any compost but it's a bit stinky... and we had new neighbours move in this afternoon!

    The best news of the day...

    Mr MWC is home and he cooked dinner :D

    Curried pasta (orrecchiette with cauliflower, broad beans, aubergine pesto, balti paste and yogurt)

    Rather annoyingly he has cancelled our joint RAC cover because he got free cover with his new car so I've just had to spend £74 on cover for myself. I will get £35.35 back from TCB but that still means I'm spending £38.65 more than I would normally :mad:
