    Hello my lovelies - hope you are all snuggly and warm this morning whereever you are! Very freezing this morning up by me and they even shut one of the mountain roads off this morning cos of the ice and the accidents! :eek:
    I reckon we'll have snow soon at this rate (hopefully not before Mr BT man installs phone and tinterweb on Monday as I can't wait to surf scratchies and MSE at home!)....
    So excited!
    Anyhoo in Adsa yesterday, pulled the car up to park, got out and put my foot on a £1!:rotfl:you know you're MSE when you check the spaces nearby to try and spot another one!:D:D
    Anyhoo, inc. that it's £3 for me today (will be back later as I spied some change in the black hole that's my handbag)
    tootle-pip my lovely Padd-ers.

    You don't know the half of it! I get quite a few benefits as standard here, that are exceptionally rare to come by in the UK.

    Commuter costs are refunded each month, I get a clothing allowance of €31 per month, the pension contribution from the firm is double what the UK paid, mobile phone (with allowance of €69 pm - I don't bother with a personal one anymore), internet paid up to maximum of €30 per month etc. And these increase as you progress through the company. OK, a couple are there because I use them for work - the phone and internet, but I still benefit from them.

    Italy has a 13th month at Christmas, a holiday payment (full month's extra pay) in May and a small Easter bonus also! This is before the discretionary bonuses are applied.

    I had no idea how badly we compare to the rest of Europe until I moved here.

    I'm sure someone explained somewhere on a previous thread but can't remember when or where.

    What are and how do I do the free scratchies??

    Just made another payment of £2.07 to CC and hoping to get to bank later for money bags to sort out sealed pot to pay in too!

  • £1 for me today. I'm going to deposit £11 worth of spare change later so that'll clear by the end of the weekend so I'll add that in when it's cleared.

    Have a great weekend everyone! Stay warm :D
