Thanks, if you both want a copy i will gladly send one..:D
As regards the Wii, i am only allowing the spend because it was an unexpected bonus and he will get extra, plus on the debt busting side he has made himself 'petrol neutral', by sharing journey's to work! so that means we now have the money to cover the recent spends on bed and white goods..definately a good start to the New Year.:j

Last month we were even under budget..miracles never cease! And it is all extra in the pot..i think i will be totally bound up in spreadsheets and micro organising the budget, especially the food..i have worked out that we have saved over £1200 last year, by halving food budget and we ate out or had a takeaway in that..so i am looking for bigger savings by growing more, and being far more organised with menu planning.:D

I also had a nice treat tonight at guides. It was the last meeting before Panto next week..oh no it isn't , oh yes it is..:rotfl: Recieved a lovely pressie and no aggro from them..so yep, it looks like i could be persuaded to stay:cool:

Aw, things sound really good Bob! I love it when budgets go well, and the Wii sounds a v good idea, especially cos the money was unexpected.

*** waves at Bob timidly ***

Thanks! I have no clever retorts based on Blackadder, so I shall resort to Babylon 5, and a character I cordially dislike: Abso-fraggin-lutely!

Morning squiz, thanks very much ..although i am still struggling with the concept of spending money..doesn't sit very well with me, i have to say...even though recent stuff is paid off..lol

You sound chipper as well.x

Well had a rotten night last night, for some reason i got a bunged up nose, was sneezing all over the place and was definately gunky..I slept sitting up, because i needed to keep elevated...but the weird thing is despite a *Rudolph* Impression, i feel well..it may just be that my sinuses have cleared as i have been having a lot of headaches over one eye..and that has now gone...
On the debt busting front we have recieved a nice little cheque for £40 overpayment of home insurance, i am sure it wasn't that..but hey i will bank it anyway..I think it may be true that sometimes money attracts money..
Which reminds me i should update my sig, as wouldn't want Ellidee i am slacking on the challenge front..
Not a lot planned today, will do my daily hassle of agencies for Jan work, and finish off the planning for my big essay..depressing or what?
Hope everyone has a good one. BOB X

I know what you mean, you get so used to budgeting that it feels 'wrong' when you spend!

Chipper.. yep, I shouldn't be, but I am quite!

That siggy is looking a lot more impressive today Bob - less amusing but a great start! aren't these things supposed to happen in threes? hope your luck keeps up.
