    Thanks all for your thoughts,

    The OH and I had a chat last night (we don't live together) and I explained how I felt about what happened and my money situation in general. We're seeing each other tonight and we're going to sit down and sort out a social & clothing budget that we're both going to stick to. He earns a lot more than I do (about 5 times!) and so doesn't think before he spends (he has no debt and a good amount of savings). He even suggested a joint spending account so I didn't feel like he was giving me money :eek: Bit scary!
    It seems to me that although you may have told friends and family about your money problems they do tend to ignore it, and I hate banging on about it (I think that's why this site's so successful, it's somewhere to let it all out!)

    Good luck and keep on plodding on everyone!
    Saving for an early retirement!
