    Urgh, you know when you have "one of those days" well I'm having one right now.

    Thanks to RM, I'm possibly not going to get as much money in as I thought I would and also getting charged a customs fee for something that I shouldn't be getting charged for either :mad: I'm pretty much certain that I'm not going to be able to clear hbos by the end of Jan as a result.

    I can't wait to see the back of 2010, I've had a really crappy year, and I think I must've broken at the very least ten mirrors.

    Now that I've had a little moan :o I'm getting stuck back into work. There are people far, far, far worse off than me!

    Wow, well the last fortnight has been all go with work, trying to get as much done as possible in the run up to xmas. One side of stuff should be a lot quieter now but the other will only be busier for the next two weeks!

    As per usual I aimed way, way, way too high. There's no chance whatsoever that I'll get rid of the hbos card by the end of January, thanks to not earning as much as I had thought I would've and also due to the fact that I've bought myself a car :o

    Needs a bit of work but cheap insurance, wee engine so even on the £1.37 a litre for fuel at the moment :eek: it'll be the cheapest to run. I really could not handle relying on lifts, walking & cycling in awful weather and buses that don't fit round my work shifts. I'm probably going to keep up with the cycling when the weather's good, keep me fit and keep the spending down.

    Today's going to be spent tidying up, with me being so busy it's kindof all just been dumped in various piles and it's driving me crazy!
