    Signature duly amended, as the payment to my mum has been made :D

    So, kick up the backside and focus time - over the last few weeks I have spent money on the basis "my bonus will be in soon", now that the bonus has been in and has been fully allocated, I am back to the harsh reality of life, and have to work flippin hard at keeping the books balanced - after all, the next bonus won't be for 12 months, unless we are lucky enough to get a small one at Christmas.

    So, spending stops right here, right now. If it ain't in a budget, it don't get spent. No ifs, no buts - if I want to get myself out of debt, then I have to be strict with myself - no one else is going to bail me out, so the buck stops here!

    This weekend will be spent number crunching, assessing required budgets for skiing, etc, and making plans for the future.

    World watch out :D
