So, did we stick to the budget?

No. We spent £43.29 over budget.

If no, why not?

Main out-goings were a £200 new dining table the wife bought - not very frugal but she's been waiting years and it's worth alot more.

£50 for kids school milk for the next school year.

£101 accidentally paid for whole family dinner - mix up with the granddad :)

Did we earn more than we spent?

Yes. We earnt £283.09 more than we spent.
