    Lynz,

    When I lived in the Wandsworth borough we only paid about £35-£40 per month in council tax. It's actually one of the cheapest boroughs in the country! A place certainly worth looking at if you're thinking of moving!

    Now you're just being greedy! :rotfl:

    Know what you mean though...when I lived there they would frequently shut the tube station in morning rush hour due to 'people congestion'. Always used to make me late for work! Had a beautiful flat though...shame it didn't work out with the OH!

    hear hear!!! nothing wrong wivve souf' mate!!

    @ OP, you really need to consider a spending diary, my friend. I used to live in Angel and got by with a monthly bus pass, transport in the centre is easy peasy.

    if you know the aprs of these debts, visit http://www.whatsthecost.co.uk/snowball.aspx to see how you can snowball your debts and pay them off in the quickest time, with the least amount of interest paid.

    all the best to you and welcome!

    True!! I think if I come back to London I'll live in another area & will work in the City (in case you wanted to know that....)

    Sorry to hijack the thread!! Will be back with some useful advise later, but well done for posting!! xx
