Gave up Sky tv and doing ok with freesat which gives C&C and repeats of some old programmes I like to watch. Look for bargain eats especially when it comes to meat and have reduced the portions of meat. Very rarely buy magasines  or newspapers. We get up early enough to shower on the white meter and the washing runs overnight. When we have our new roof , no choice there as the current one is supported with acros, we will have to make sure it is as good as we are allowed in a conservation area. I have found that our Lidl now does mostly known brands and are not as economical as they used to be. I draw the line at giving up winesmiley: laugh. xx Flora
