I don't know, I feel like I'd just spend all the money within 4 weeks instead of 4.5 or whatever, then there would eventually be a time where all my bills come out when I've still got over a week til payday and I'll be screwed.

Set up a system 10 years ago now
Have one bank that the wages go into and bills are taken from
Have another bank that's spending
(Also have a golf bank and a joint account for mortgage now lol added later)
Anyways leave exactly the bills money in the bills account and remove the rest
Then bills are covered everything else fair game ?

My system is similar, but it's more - on payday send a huge chunk of money to the wife to deal with.
Then it's only my own bills I have to worry about (phone, internet, loan repayment, credit card...)

Lol not a bad system
Ours is basically the other way
Payday I'll send the joint account a couple bags to cover all the bills that are joint
Then she buys the food lol
I think she gets a cracking deal ?
My only condition dont moan about what I buy golf wise aha

Went for a lovely longish walk with the Mrs over lunchtime - a warm and sunny day and spirits of those we met had been most definitely lifted by the weather.

Absolutely amazing the change in size in these. My father-in-law up to his death was St. George's longest surviving pacemaker patient, having had a total of 13 0ver 36 years. In his latter years a change became a day procedure and any adjustments were made remotely. I'd love to know what he would make of this development.

Getting a WhatsApp saying there’s a 4 ball booked for the 29th March and I’m one of the 4!
I don’t care where it is or the time

We've missed out on recent similar events due to poor weather or cloud cover so was an added bonus with clear almost perfect conditions...

I believe our local church was doing the same today...
With little or no wind, in these parts, we didn't get to hear...

Traditional Scottish shortbread made this morning using my mum‘s method has turned out spot on. Giving most of it to daughter’s b/f for his birthday tomorrow as he‘s a great fan of it. Angling for a reciprocation that involves a great deal on new clubs and a few free lessons to get going with them...??

We were luck enough to get the Dakota flying over the village too.

No fly pasts for us today...
However we did spot some Goldcrests on our feeders which is a very rare treat for us...

Have spent the afternoon [hopefully] pigeon proofing our Skyrocket...
Did originally get some small mesh netting around the area the flying rats were attempting a nest build... But had to have a re-think as we got concerned it might trap our smaller and far better looking and friendlier garden visitors... Managed to get a loop of paracord around the tree about 15ft up and spiraled the tail down to squeeze in the loose foliage... Weather is way too good to spend the day indoors watching sport...
