8.45am: It is amazing just how far one bag of oats can stretch. Still got a quarter left!
1pm: Want something nice. Go to M&S with tiny hope of being able to find a bargain.
1.15pm: Leave M&S with:
one freshly baked granary roll 31p
one (very high-brow looking) tomato 16p
one portion of Port Salut cheese 40p (treat)
Total = 87p
Money left = £12.98
1.30pm: Bloody lovely cheese and tomato roll. And, considering it was all the finest ingredients all for 87p, pretty good value.
6.15pm: Tesco's on Bethnal Green Road.
6.35pm: After queuing for way too long, buy:
one can of chopped value tomatoes 33p
two carrots 14p
Total = 47p
Money left = £12.51
7pm: Whip up rice/tinned toms/chopped carrot concoction under the somewhat unenthusiastic watch of cousin, who poses such questions as "what on earth are you making?" and "is that it?"
7.10pm: Rejoice at discovery of last cheese portion I bought last week. Grate over food.
7.30pm: Block out immense cravings for sugar and/or alcohol with sorting frenzy.
7.35pm: File bank statements and pay slips in date order.
7.50pm: Tidy underwear drawer.
8pm: Watch "Embarrassing Bodies" on Channel 4 On Demand, and promptly lose all food cravings thanks to the detailed documentation of an operation to remove an anal abscess.
