Thats another fine mess I got myself into

Great news on 90% sales increase. This next year is looking rosy for you. An account system which is working. Debt in hand, each month less. Shopping at M&S for food.
About 5 years ago, I remember when my sil phoned and I said that my DH was food shopping in M&S, she made a joke/comment , I had to explain that it was a few days before pay day, no money in the account, but we had a M&S store card. No wonder we were in a money mess.
Good luck for the new financial year.Pay £7,500 in 2011 paid £29,325 No 43 OP £21,825

Yeah things are good here (I feel nervous saying that)
Of course, we are still robbing Paul when his back is turned but we are well on our way to a civilsed form of living, as opposed to a mere existence.LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

Evening all,
Payment due 4th still not arrived.............they said they posted it on 4th so hopefully tomorrow. This is a clear example why I need to build cushion into business account so that we are not in a panic for money.
Apart from that, things are tight, very tight but at least not bursting!!
Tired, and as someone else said on their diary................it feels like it should be Friday - lllllllloooooooooooonnnnnnnnnngggggggggg week.
Weigh in tomorrow, would be delighted with 1lb off. Think that I have had my uber lose now (9lbs in two weeks) and we are on slow steady decline now, which is great as long as I keep losing. If I manage average of 1lb weekly, I will have lost 23lbs by Xmas, which would be fan dabby dosey!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

Absurd&Ludricous are now taking DD's out in the middle of the day! No longer in the morning is your statement on line a reflection of the day it appears, but rather a dd has come out yesterday sometime (it wasn't out in the morning when I checked!) So my statement this morning show a lodgement and then next is a dd and then a reversal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn them!
So the statement shows enough money in the account to cover but obviously they attempted the DD sometime before the lodgement was made. And to infuriate me further the dd has always come out on the 7th but for some reason yesterday it came out on the 6th in the afternoon!!
Will try to think of the positives of this annoyance!!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
