    I suspect that after a month of free coffee in my office I will use so much that we will have to pay again :D

    I can't believe how focussed you are. Good luck on the job hunting front.

    Re: snow - yesterday you would have thought we were in the North Pole not the North West. The whole place ground to a halt, buses came to a standstill on a hill etc. Talking to friend and they all got sent home and told not to go in today, in a company that prides itself on recruiting locally and most people could walk to work!

    We went to see this and it was excellent. Taka is lovely as ever and we had a good chat :D

    I suspect the focus will wane naturally and I will become more normal soon :D

    Sleepy now, night all!

    Morning all!


    Nothing to report on either the debt-busting or frugality fronts this morning. No direct debits have wandered out of my account and as far as I can remember I don't need to buy anything today so I'm tentatively aiming for a NSD.

    I charged my phone at work yesterday, so extra frugal points for that, but minus for having the heating on this morning. It's bloody baltic.
    HSshiver.gifI am currently avoiding getting into the shower as this will mean taking off the padded shirt I have stolen from Mr Fresian.

    I'm sending him off through the snow and ice today to pick up some parcels from the Post Office for me that I suspect are my M&S delivery from Christmas Day. I received the wrapping paper but am waiting on some Christmas gifts and undies for me. All paid for already, leading to a warm and happy glow. Well, you have to get your warm and happy where you can in these conditions
