    Hi All,

    Not posted in a while (been too busy, must concentrate on DFW)

    So what have I missed? Driving Tests, Engagements, anything else?
    Congrats to all
    So, today is payday, so kept bill money in my account, and moved (small) excess to my Debt Free Quicker account.

    Also, checked my holiday price online - down to £201 :T - 2 weeks til I book it, and 3 weeks til I go :T:T

    However, I bought breakfast and lunch at work :eek:

    :rolleyes: Never mind, tomorrow need to go food shopping for the month, and book a session at the gym as I have not been for tooooo long (about 9 months - please dont shout).

    Have fun and take care

    Thanks again everyone for your concern about me. I am feeling a little better today, but am so tired now.

    Your health has to be the first priority always, sorting out the money issues can come when you are able to deal with it.:wave:
