    I wish I knew how the CSA and Tax Credit people worked.....I know bank holidays are a pain, but with the new system of "same day transfers" you'd think they coulld get their act together a bit more, I've got 4 payments missing from the Xmas period....I know they'll catch up eventually but for those who rely on that money it must be hell.

    Thanks for the reminder. Just checked and only one CSA payment missing now!:mad: hope it arrives soon else will end up Christmas overdrawn which was what I was hoping to avoid!:rolleyes:

    Oh I LURVE quizzes Sammy! Right, I have taken Xmas tree down and burnt it-very MSE! All deccies outside now brought inside and drying out before being put away. Kids doing their thank you notes, before tidying bedrooms and sorting school stuff. No roast today as only the 3 of us here,kids want sausages on french bread for brunch.

    brrrrrrrrrrrrrr its chilly out and i have just spent a rediculous £91 in tesco :eek: the only way I can justify it is that I haven't been shopping since 20th December and I had to buy things like washing powder/fabric conditioner shampoo, toothpaste, shower gel. Hey ho looks like that will have to last for 2 weeks as I have only budgeted £50 a week!

    Oh and it started to snow...here is the south where is NEVER snows!
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....
    Finally Debt Free...
