Right a new week and a great weekends running
Didnt spend much either and am currently £4.04 spent of my £20 but in my defence I had to buy coffee which stops me buying it from costas or where ever so that'll last a few weeks.
At OHs again this weekend for running - noooo not the hillso little money spending there and out for my works summer party on Wednesday afternoon so a free lunch (no drinks for me though as I have a 13 mile run to do after :eek:)...if anyone is interested we are going here:

and then to Kensington Palace so its should be lovely - hope the weather holds out0 -
What do you mean - "a new week" - it is tuesday already.....that means it is practically Wednesday, which means the weekend is almost upon us

Yeah but I hadnt posted since Friday so its a new week for the diary
Also my running week is Tuesday to Sunday as Monday is rest day
And stop wishing the week away - I have another 40 miles of running to fit in yet0 -
Right stupid bank time...
Have cancelled my CC and went in today to pay off the remaining interest charge...less than £1...anyway because they wouldnt change my address when I moved a year ago (*rolls eyes*) they have sent my closing balance to my old address...
The nice lady in branch rung them up for me and appparently they will write off the 65p as I cant pay my bill without that closing balance...
Who wants to bet they will be chasing me for that (and adding a late fee) next month - but of course at my old address no doubt *idiots*
Ah well have got nice lady in branch's name and will go back if I get any problems but honestly what muppets!!!0 -
Okay its pay day on Friday so am going to reduce the overdraft by £100 :eek: but good too - I've been relying on it for too long so its got to go
Also, have been good at food budgeting this month so thats good but less good on general spends - totally failed at the £20 challenge so am going for 15 NSDs next month instead
Running was goooood today - didnt make 45 miles last week as was tired from racing the week before but hoping to get there this week.0 -
