    Morning folks! Another hard day in a hard week for me... No money till Friday, but that's when my fortunes turn, hopefully for good :)

    Also got told last night to expect a bonus of almost £1000 on Friday, so that'll help with Christmas and getting my DMP moving nicely.

    Pretty cold in Aberdeen today, clear skys though, how is it everywhere else?
