    I have been so bad at internet shopping :(

    I have racked up some more credit card debt but am hoping to shift that without adding it to my overall sig. I don't know how it happened :(

    Hi all!

    Finally got my flight refund off Ryanair so I am off to amend my sig. I really want to be under 9k. Thankfully I have stopped spending money but I have an expensive time in 2 weeks with my sisters wedding

    I'm spending money on activities again. Started going to salsa which is £6 a week and done couple of sessions of climbing which with gear is £11.50 per time. And we've just booked a surfing lesson for this Saturday, £25. I know it seems not a lot of money, but when you have an extremely tight budget, things like these can really tip it over... :( I need to reign myself in again. I don't really afford to go both climbing and salsa regularly, or at least it needs to be much more planned and budgeted. So really need to have another look at my budget and see if I can fit these things in or not.

    Also been slacking on the Make £10 a day Challenge and have done nothing for last and this month. Not much I have left to sell anymore, but need to make the effort with what I have. And start dooyoo'ing! Have started writing things down I could review so it's a small start.

    Weather's absolutely amazing today. Bf's taken the day off and gone outdoor climbing with his mate. Then he's off to salsa tonight (I only do Thursday's class as Tuesday's class doesn't have advanced) and then coming for a pudding later. I made some rhubarb pannacotta which needs to be tested! :)

    I was a bit like that Tirlittan - spending money right, left and centre! I am copping on a bit more now and hope to be under 9k by the middle of next month. I am applying for working tax credits so hope to get them backdated a bit and can pay off more of the credit card.

    I have been awol too. I have been away and just also not been online really, well, except at work, but then I do work on a website - lol

    I now am just a shave over £9100 (can't remember if I have updated my siggy or not) and I plan on getting sub £8k on payday next week.

    Hello all, sorry for being such an erratic participant on the thread.

    ETA: nope, not updated siggy!

    Blooming heck, this thread has died me thinks, last post 2 weeks ago.

    And MSE has had quite a facelift since I was last on!
