Morning all.
Its gawjus here. Sadly I am at work all day.
Have to nip to the bank later this afternoon to sort out money for the girls next week. They both want to have school dinners for their first week so I will need enough change for them to have £2.50 a day (S can probably take £5 to last her for the two days as it is old hat for her but if I give L £5 she'll spend it on the first day in the snack shop!!). S will also need £1 a day for her bus fare (fortunately she has a lift there in the mornings which is saving me £1 a day).
They will be going onto sandwiches after that - £25 a week is too expensive on top of their £5 a week each pocket money and £5 a week for S's bus fare. I know that S prefers to have sandwiches as she can never be bothered to queue up and her friends all have sandwiches. I am hoping that L's friends also have sandwiches.
They are off to my mums today and I have told them that they must wear in their new school shoes which my mum in law bought them at the beginning of the summer. L has had hers on for 2 minutes and is already moaning that one slips up and down and her toes are right at the end of one shoe. As she will have to walk 4 miles a day (2 miles there, 2 miles back) its important that they are comfy. I am in adoption panel all day tomorrow so can't go shoe shopping with her - they'd better be comfy by the end of the day!!!
