    Ahh I am famous, thanks Zig!

    Not much news, spent a fair bit yesterday as went out for my birthday night out and bought food in etc but was a really good night so worth it.

    I have got 38.21 due to me in total from Bingo and scratchies the last few days so I think that is pretty good going! Hopefully i will win more as the month goes on and will pay that OD off in no time.

    That's brilliant. I haven't added up mine, but it's pretty impressive isn't it.

    Been a busy morning on my first day back at work but at least it goes quick. I got a 15 pound Amazon voucher from my work in an email too so that is going in the present fund.

    Not much else to say yet , need to check my budget sheet as havent had the chance to do it properly since getting paid.

    I just checked my banking and budget and had a bit of a panic about how much I had left. Then I realised there was a gap between my amount available and the amount in my account by 200 quid. I know that 45 of that is petrol but have no idea what the rest is. I think it might be that the machines weren't working to buy my travel card this morning, put my pin in etc and it didn't work but it might have taken the money out. Went to the bank but they said they won't know yet so got to see what happens, hopefully it will just reverse itself.

    Well some of the money has appeared in my account again and am missing exactly the amount the monthly travel card would cost so hopefully that will appear back tomorrow. At least I know is def that now.

    Got my ten pounds scratchie money this morning so that has gone in OD fund. I am excited for when I pay the OD off and am not in the red woo.

    I know, is scary but until it actually says what it is I can't do anything about it. Hoping it just reverses itself now!

    Had a bit of a hectic day at work and walking home as well as the christmas lights were being switched on. Couldn't get on tube at Tottenham court road so had to walk all the way down the back streets past oxford street where they were blaring out christmas music haha. Had to get the tube at marble arch which was a bit of a hike, home now though.

    My Uggs arrived today and fit and look nice so am very happy with those!

    Other good news I got a crown on Dooyoo yay, and managed to write another review. Up to 21000 now so nearly half way to cheque.
