You've had a productive weekend again Taxi - tooth is bound to still be a bit delicate but at least you know the worse is over now.

That must be a great feeling URG - I can't wait - but in a funny sort of way I'm a bit wary of going mad and spending and ending up in a right royal mess again. Yes strange I know!!!!!!

Hi Milann

You started a great discussion point!

I do know what you mean - I have had a really hard time of it and the discipline hasn't really been there and it has been hard for me to really maintain the DFW habits over the last few months. I will also be heading into a big spending period as OH and I prepare for the wedding. It's really hard as some of the things we are doing are last minute and will end up costing more because we haven't been able to plan. I'm also worried that I'll end up throwing my hands in the air and say "oh f*** it! It's not like I'll get married every day!" This is the part I really need to keep an eye out for. That and OH who still needs a little training;).

Sorry for taking over your thread again Taxi - hope you managed to enjoy that bath. That's one of the first things I'll save for - a new bathroom where I can fill the bath without flooding downstair's kitchen! (Don't ask!)

Great to here you are aiming for Xmas :j and that the tooth has been sorted :j.

I agree that toothache id the worst. Child birth bad but doesnt last as long and pain relief available. Broken bone sore but more of a frustration. Toothache :eek: eek: :eek: please never again!!

How much is "silly money"?

Do you have a "entertainment" entry in your budget?

silly money is generally less than £100 squids and doesn't happen too often. Don't have an entertainment budget per se, most of my budget revolves around paying bills and debts.

sorry Taxi for hijacking. Hope work goes well today

I got the reference now, thanks both - I started thinking, my god, I wish I could think of around £100 as "silly money" - but thats not where you were coming from ...:) phew.....

Back from work and ok day...I got a job today that was unloading near a friends house this afternoon so popped in to see her and have a brew and a catch up which was nice.
I've paid £50 overpayment and £9.86 DD to Halifax CC today...hoping to have rid of that very shortly maybe within the week.
Not a lot else happening here at the moment..it's our day off tomorrow but nothing planned yet.
