    Had an opportunity to work for the Olympics in Cardiff through work so registered my interest, got a call back asking which shifts I could work but then missed the call that would've confirmed my place. Thankfully it all worked out alright, didn't do the work as it would've meant working Saturday just gone and next Saturday but made other plans.

    A friend of BFs was around that he hasn't seen for ages and was going to be based down in Poole for a few weeks so they made plans to go climbing on the coast. As I didn't take the job, I could go with them. Had a fab weekend of camping, chilling out, walking, climbing, kayaking and swimming. :)

    Ah, bit of a long absence. Since the debt has been going down nicely and I'm not worried about it, I've definitely taken back seat on here. 2 more pay days and I will be debt free! It's quite unbelievable that the DF day is so close now. Minimum payment just went out and another £25 down.

    I've just come back to work from a holiday. We cycled round Welsh Coast starting from Swansea and making our way round to Mold in North Wales. 7 days of straight cycling and 421 miles covered. It was absolutely brilliant! There are plans for another one next summer...

    Hope everyone's well.
