  • Ive 28 active at the moment. Will be doing more over the weekend as I am on a shoe voyage of discovery.

    Glad to hear the phone call time is going to be a little better, you cant have an interview while shovelling dippy egg into a boy!

    Well, i'm pleased about the change to the interview time too :D.

    My housemates have just gone on a McDonalds run before nightshift so there goes the last £5 in my purse :(, never mind. We have only £160 to see us through til Thursday (pay day), so strictly speaking I just spent 3% of our budget on junk food:mad:.

    Anyway onward and upward, have 2 tins of weightwatchers soup and a tin of beans to do my 3 remaining nightshifts on. I'll have cornflakes and toast before I go off shift courtesy of the NHS, and will have my free glass of vino courtesy of BA on the flight home. Hubby is going to take out £120 (he owes his Mum £20) and I'll take out the other £40 and we will hope for the best:eek:.

    Christ knows how this happened, but I'll try to make it fun. Bank shift on Labour Ward tonight, but I will head up to my ward at some point to see if the bank shifts for the next off duty are out yet and book some of those. Hoping for the best as I'm nightshift money spending opportunities should be few and far between. Some of the ebay finishes tonight - only around 5 items but hopefully they will pay quickly and I can transfer the cash to the bank.

    Have made a momentous decision to move out of the shared house I live in London, and into the staff accommodation. This will save me £60 a month, and hopefully its only for a certain amount of time :D. Expect to be moving out around end October.

    Something will come up:D.

    I could always lay my head on a delivery bed:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Just completed all the surveys in my inbox.

    Going to pop over to the Perth Poms forum to see if anyone can give me an idea of what questions to expect on my telephone interview on Wednesday:eek:.

    Have £17 put aside to feed myself for the next 2 nightshifts. Of course breakfast will be courtesy of the NHS :D, so just dinner to think about. I'm planning to buy some supernoodles and have those with toast - cheap and cheerful (8p from Tesco I believe ;)).

    Starting Weightwatchers on 1st October for my Oz beach body

    Of course free of charge - my friend will weigh me and let me use her booklets (she is on week 11 now). She promises to threaten me with physical violence if I don't lose weight, so maybe it will work?! Will spend my lunch break researching what I can eat. She also gave me her login for the weightwatchers site so I can calculate how many points are in things :D.
