day 7

7am: Decide to go to work, even though severely lacking sleep, and feel like may vomit.

9am: Two spoonfuls of porridge in the kitchen.

11am: Get sent home from work as look hideous.

11.30am: Try best not to be sick on train.

11.45am: Try best not to be sick on tube.

11.55am: Home.

12.05pm: Sick.

1pm: Although feeling generally awful, plus side is it looks like I won't want to eat today, so definitely slightly over budget.

4.30pm: Very bored, and rather malnourished.

4.35pm: Crawl to Tesco and allow myself to spend £1 on anything my heart desires.

4.45pm: Leave Tesco with one pack of six pancakes (reduced to 50p) and, to balance out the (I'm guessing) non-nutritional value of pancakes, one pack of winter veg (reduced to 45p).

Money left: £23.33

6pm: Eat 5.5 pancakes (give 0.5 to cousin). Feel sick.

6.15pm: Steam and eat veg. Feel better.

6.25pm: Find Saturday's free lamb in fridge drawer. Has gone very dark and a bit green. Balls. Throw in bin.

6.30pm: Decide to put new breadmaking skills to the test.

6.45pm: Cannot find suitabley warm place in flat to leave dough to rise. Decide that stage is probably not vital.

7.15pm: Remove from oven one rather small, hard and dense, but not entirely inedible, loaf of brown bread.

7.20pm: Cousin pronounces my first loaf a success, if a little "carby".
