    Hi E_E

    have read back and discovered the register thing, so am now scared of not padding. Teeny pad though of 70p to the slummy jar, it was going to be more, but have just heard a big bang from outside and gone out to find my gutter has collapsed. That isn't going to be cheap and no idea how I'm going to pay for it.

    Hi gilligansyle

    Yes I have a lovely register and will be naming and shaming on the last day of the month!! :rotfl:

    Oh no to the gutter :eek:, do you have a male friend who has a ladder who could pop round - it might just be a loose screw which has made it seem worse than it is.

    If you were closer (not even sure where you are!) I would send my OH round

    Right have managed to get myself in gear and made a PAD of £64.12

    This is £20 to Duet and £44.12 to La Redoute (now finally cleared). No congratulations needed as it was not a debt I was counting as it was my son's jeans which I kept forgetting to pay off so I got charges :mad:

    Will be back later to PAD something to Paypal.

    Hi all, PAD today of £10 to my overdraft! OOoo this is getting addictive!
  • Hi Folks,

    PaD for today is £28.24.

    Have been slipping a bit lately as I've taken on a bit more than I can manage really (full time job, training for sports club 5 times a week and a masters through the Open Uni). Hoping to get back on track (and I think EE scared me into action with her register) as I'm looking to buy my first house too.

    Phew...

    Unfortunately my gutters are cast iron, so when they go they really go!! Last year by BIL hammered some big nails under it to try to keep it up, but the torrential rain last night finished it off for good. BIL is working this weekend so is going to look at it on Tuesday, but it will probably need replacing, I've been patchingit up for too long.

    Will do better on the PADdng next month
