    Well it did it for those two!

    I've finally finished work for the year. There were plenty of times when I honestly didn't think I could make it. It's been one of the hardest years of my life yet I've had some amazing times too, I've certainly got plenty of tales to tell, whether good, bad or plain crazy.

    Home in 5 days, yay!

    Did you buy any shoes during the year?

    (Just trying to get the thread back on track, it's gone very quiet!)

  • it has gone quiet hasn't it?

    I wore my new shoes, very good, fairly comfortable. I love Patent shoes and I love wedges so it was a successful wearing.

    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Hey there

    I've sort of worked out a budget.

    I used the budget s/s on here and used 10 months of bank statements to work out what I spend my cash on.

    Quite interesting considering I'm averaging £125 in cash out each month and I couldn't really say what that went on.

    And I'm spending £250 a month on food which is a mixture of supermarket spending and eating out....although that also includes cash back at the supermarket and who knows what that cash is spent on! Although the supermarket shopping will also include clothes shopping that I regularly do alongside getting a loaf of bread or some milk!

    Aargh - it's a bit depressing but also quite interesting!!!!!!
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    I know:D I got one at the weekend from Tesco and had to order some more, they are too pretty to use though. Also got a potato storage bag and some pink pegs at the weekend. I hope this matched betting pays off as I need to pay for them yet.
