  • *LOL* thanks its all down to work really! im fortunate that i work with a really good bunch of highly paid people!!! *LOL* every night out so far has been work apart from my £10 night

    This weekend i have a mates birthday which i don't think i'm going to get away so lightly with but i will just have to be extra inventive with my shopping budget for next week and make lots of my spicy pasta (1 garlic clove, Chili to taste - in oil oil for a bit, add chopped toms, table spoon of tom puree and simmer for 20mins - yummy & filling and under a £1!) and i think we are all paying seperately for dinner so i'm going to check out the menu in a sec..

    I am hopefully getting the call today - everything is sooooo slow at the moment because they are so money focused at the moment my salary is being approved by everyone but the postman at the moment!! *LOL*

    I will post as sooooon as i hear - i feel like my phone is the kettle that wnt boil because i staring at it too much...

    Just looked at my sums..hmmm hate xmas today! I have paid £85 off paragon and i think i will have to see how the funds go for the rest of the week before i pay anything off i'm tight to the last penny the next 2 weeks :(

    ahhh wish it would blooming ring!
