Last Tuesday night we went to see Olly Murs at the Metro Arena in Newcastle for the opening night of his UK tour.It was originally just supposed to be just me and Miss Frugal going but at the last minute we bought two extra tickets from one of our friends who wasn't able to go so we all went (although we weren't all sat together thankfully). I was sat right near the front with Miss Frugal and Master Frugal was sat with his Dad a bit further back.We had a great view where we were sat and Miss Frugal alternated between singing, dancing and screaming madly and standing quiet staring as … [Read more...]
Get Organised – Make some money by de-cluttering….

This week’s meal plan – with a lot of help from the slow cooker….
Yeay - we've successfully got through another week without illness! I think the germs may have finally got the hint and left us ;-)It's a bit of a busy week this week, I started my new job today so am working full time for a little while until I'm up to speed with my new role.
