    Right, an hour of reading and then dinner. I can't afford to slack off just because James isn't nagging anymore.

    no, it's 253L .................40% tax - I wish :rotfl:

    I'm paying last years AQA tax through my PAYE which is why I don't have a 'normal' tax code. It works out to be 20% plus around £65 per month.

    £486?? sigh............just keep swimming, just keep swimming.........

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
