The students did not have to attend the religious aspects of the school, and would spend that time in the office under the secretaries supervision. The young lady and I had a lovely discussion about her hijab. I learned a great deal that 30 min period.<br /><br />God bless.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16051183778965359500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4592892447325434256.post-86504117276349559532023-02-05T22:26:34.435+00:002023-02-05T22:26:34.435+00:00Your savings will soon pile up, especially if ther...Your savings will soon pile up, especially if there are more interest rate hikes. I was only getting 0.1% on my savings account for the longest time - now it's up to 1%, not great but at least an improvement!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05224823051315463861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4592892447325434256.post-2590879017120692932023-02-05T20:00:14.069+00:002023-02-05T20:00:14.069+00:00Yep I have a hybrid Honda Jazz! 2 years old and st...Yep I have a hybrid Honda Jazz! 2 years old and still not done 5,000 miles yet!!!!

We have a hybrid Honda Jazz and it’s great to drive-we hardly ever need petrol ( although we do a low mileage and I walk everywhere possible). Doing some kantha slow stitching and the Call the Midwife-simple pleasures but both make me happy.

Getting my wee hybrid car was the best decision I made. £100 worth of petrol would keep me driving for about 6 months!! xxxAlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17134857174645360450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4592892447325434256.post-68322044413900100772023-02-05T13:25:43.388+00:002023-02-05T13:25:43.388+00:00I think you are doing extremely well with your foo...I think you are doing extremely well with your food bills etc, in this current economic situation it's tough to keep the grocery spend down - like you say we have to eat. Fuel is still potentially a big part of monthly costs, I'm going to need to visit family soon and filling the tank will still cost at least £100!<br />Alison in Wales xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
