Question - What does 'PAD' stand for?
PAD is Payment a Day which is another thread on this board.
Not much in the DFW stakes for me today really.
-Posted some items that sold on eBay this weekend
-Done daily scratchies- 20p
-Kept grocery shopping under £10- hopefully will just need milk now this week
-Didn't have lunch as was too busy at work, which surely must be DFW:money:
BUT I've had to book my car in for a full service on Wednesday as it is a bit poorly and I am certain that won't be cheap. Luckily I get my bonus from work in Friday's pay so at least I can afford it, even if I begrudge it!:DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator
