    Evening everyone, its been ages again... I hope you're all well, happy birthday for the other day lilmiss :). It seems like the flu has really taken hold now, one of the depots that the people I work for own was fumigated earlier because two people who work there there have it. Well done on the weight loss mm :).

    I'm still plugging away at getting the debt down. I have a butlins account in the ex's name which I won £50 on last night, I haven't spoken to him about it yet but we're still on good terms so fingers crossed but I think he'll be nice and send me the money, especially as he's in a decent job earning double what I do, and he knows his finances are much better than mine. Also, in other good news in a couple of weeks I'm being moved to a different (better) job within my office. I won't get any more money yet, but it's the first rung to moving up. It's good because this is only my sixth week back there so it has happened quite quickly.
    Finally bought a home
    Starting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]
