Pap attempts to live on part time wage for a year...

Hi PaP :hello: :hello: :hello:

Good luck with your 'part-time' employment. I know how difficult it is to 'live' on that sort of money as I have only averaged around £400 monthly take-home for the last six months. Fortunately my wife also works, but it is a struggle.
However, your health is more important than money, so I wish you well and am sure that, with your past experience, you will manage.
Anyway, PaP - a special apology to you for my 'absence' from DFW. I needed some 'personal time' to try and sort out my 'work' situation - I'm still not fully sorted, but am getting there - so please don't worry if you don't see much of me over the next month or so.

All the very best

Thanks all for your well wishes, rog (hugs) look after yourself and your family. Jamie, I always wave pompoms for you, I love your diary :j

So day 4 and all is going well :j nothing spent so far and I have listed 14 items on ebay today. Hopefully they may raise my first £80. I have a lot more to list but I am going to do them in batches. I pay ebay through direct debit as and when so this will be taken into account this coming month, I will add it to my sig once I pay it

Jamie, thanks I am up to £5 so far so all is good
beaine and brummie, hiya, hope you two are well.

Ok so day 7 and today I spent. My magazine was released so that was £3.95. however I manged to resist the choccy and just grab the magazine pay and run out of the shop again :rotfl: However that now means I have change in my purse :mad: I think I will be leaving my purse at home next week :j

Ok I have a desicion to make about the magazine too. Now I used to subscribe to a different magazine but I canceled that because basically I was buying it and then wanting more games etc (it was the nintendo magazine). Now if I see a game I like advertised I go online and read the reveiws ~ for free :j So now I only have this one (craft stamper) that I buy from smiths each month (7th). However they have a great subscription offer :rolleyes: 5 plates of stamps free if you subscribe. Now I am tempted. Its £10 every 3 months, so you save nearly £2 anyways plus I get those free stamps. what do you think? I could always leave the £4 in my bank each month to cover the direct debit?

Oh also my chair broke, third time... however I have destroyed the recipet now So I am now on a dining room chair. I will try and buy a new one but I cant see it being this side of xmas. I am not too woried as this may stop me being on here so much :rotfl:
