I have £5 in my account that I really want to send to Lloyds, as I would only be £1.28 off £10,900 then.

As much as I want to say send it to Lloyds might be best to save it till next week, if you end up not needing to buy food you could send it then xDebt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0

Yep your right Bec's, its no good wasting away just to send Lloyds another fiver!

Its only for 3 nights, but me and two friends are going to Marbella - it was £224 all inclusive, so we can get drunk at the hotel and then go out and hopefully not spend too much (not that I'm advocating binge drinking or anything!!!).

I was going to say you definately deserve a break Bec's with all the hours you work, then remembered you have just come back from Borneo :rotfl:
So instead I will say, it will be lovely to spend some quality time alone with your OHLBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)
