Well i have to save for the January trip

At least that's a few months away though, so you can save gradually. I work out how much I need by a certain date, then budget how much I can afford to spend "on myself" during the week in order to reach that total (ignoring the necessities such as travelling to work, fish tank water / salt etc), then that's how much I can spend in that week.

If I'm being bad with my money, then I actually go to the cash point on Monday and withdraw that amount from a cash point, rather than trying to keep track of what I spend on my debit card.

I try to do that as well, but unfortunately, I'm not so good at keeping it up to date properly!

Afternoon everyone.

Im back in now. Been to Church then went to Ikea to take something back Id got last week then ended up getting some more bits and bobs. then went to Asda to get some food so we can have the luxury of eating this week.

So home now and catching up on what threads Ive missed and pottering round the house as well. - Got a splitting headache though.

I've got some boos to add as well - thanks

I'm going to tread carefully, but I think we're all mature enough here not to descend into fisticuffs...

What church do you go to?

Hello Everyone!! I'm home!!

How've you all been? How was your Quaker meeting Rob?? Everyone having a nice day??

We're soaked!! On the way home, while I was just driving down the A1, it starting BLITZING with rain.... I was really scared because I couldn't even see the road!!! Got home safe and sound though- My car however, looks like its parked in a pond..... I'm now wrapped in a towel, sat on the DIS....

It was a nice day though, and I have some pictures to share with y'all!!

Afternoon everyone,
I've spent this afternoon going through my Disneyland, Hollywood and Las Vegas holiday photos trying to decide which ones to put on my digital photo frame. The only problem is the photo frame only takes a 1gb card and I took 9gb of pictures!!

A small world, what did you get from IKEA, I love that place. DH says I have to have a 5 item need list before we go to IKEA as I would be there all the time!

We got an Ikea catologue the other day.......... I'm addicted to it!! They had some fab shelves in that looked a bit like ladders! Loved them!

Before we moved in to our house 10 years ago I went to IKEA with my mum to get some stuff. We ended up having to call my dad to come with his car too as I had bought too much!! Then a week later I went back and my dad said it might be a good idea for mum and I to go in our own cars, I said I wouldn't be buying that much. Yeah, guess what? My dad had to bring his car over again!! Luckily they only live 20 minutes away from an IKEA!!

We bought lots last weekend for DDs new bedroom so needed to take back a light shade that was going to be too awkward to fit
We ended up buying more boxes and a few cushions - I love all their storage ideas- so many different types of boxes and things.

We also have loads of Ikea stuff in the house, garden etc etc

Emma, I know you like taking one of the crocs on your trips too. I took Flower, one of the America croc on my recent trips. Here's a link to the pics if you want to see them (they are on the next page too, I did 4 posts! You have to scroll down a bit on the 1st page.)
