    well done you! wish i hadn't spent so much when i went shopping on Sat.

    snow is pretty if you're inside in the warm and can just watch it outside. It's horrible when you've got to go to work and have to walk ages from the car park to the office.

    I love the way banks try and explain things as if they have your best interests at heart! Just had an email from Natwest stating they are simplifying overdraft charges to make them easier to understand. There will now be a flat fee of £6 per day if you go overdrawn/over your overdraft! Can you imagine making £6 for going even a penny overdrawn!

    Luckily I never go overdrawn on this account so isn't an issue for me. It just makes me laugh how they try and dress these things up when the reality is its just another way to screw more money out of people!
