July Frugal thread, Just chatting and saving.

[Fluffycloudland77]

Everyone welcome.

Hi all, new to this thread. Fuzz pig, I use cornflour to thicken curries etc. Put a heaped teaspoon into a mug/jug and add a little bit of water and mix to a thin paste. Stir into curry and cook for a further 15 mins. Works for me!

Fuzz that seems really unfair

I have been in town all morning, went to the local museum as stuff going on there ended up paying £4 to look round a lego exhibition dd loved it though. Dd bought a soft toy which I have told her will come out of her own money - she is a soft toy addict

Tea and cake was £3.50ish

£4.50 in Wilkos on a paint brush and an insulated lunchbox reduced to £2.50!!

Umm think thats it.

Not too bad considering it was a good morning.

Frugal wins - cycling in so saved a good £4.50 on parking and took a pack lunch with us for lunch.

Oh collie we will come round for tea. We lufs a roast dinner. Don't bother with the cafe on the beach if you ever come. It's decent and a local church are doing free beach games with a bit of religion thrown in which we can ignore.

fuzz I just take off the cover for an hour and it thickens up that way.

Fuzz that's rubbish

We're having spag Bol for dinner.

Dd just lost her first tooth! Hence an urgent text to dh to bring home 50p. She's only just five!

After spending £50 on some new walking boots and the gaiters that I had to have to match I made amends with a frugal tea - used leftovers, turned the gas off early and ate out of the pan, thus saving on washing up space. I think that cancel's out the spending.

AUGUST thread here (ready for when we need it )

AUGUST THREAD AUGUST THREAD AUGUST THREAD AUGUST THREAD !!

(Wanna come over now, or finish this one up?)

BTW ..NSD for me....

OK ... as new thread has already been posted on

I AM OFFICIALLY DECLARING THIS THREAD CLOSED (bit of a darn bossy cheeky cow I know

See you over here.. Please... !!

..oh look, you get the drift.......

Fuzz - sorry to hear that. I'm not entirely sure that's legal. Can he check or speak to someone in ACAS to see if that's legal? Or HR? They can't just demote him. They can say he doesn't have the IT skills but was that in his original job description? Otherwise it's a case of them having to send him for training whilst he's still on this same job band.

Nsd.

Yes fuzz Get him To double check it's legal.

We had a day out, NSD for me but DH paíd for lunch, entry To an otter/butterfly centre and afternoon tea. Probably about £80 all in.

See you all on the Augusto thread.
