    Morning folks,

    Nothing to report here in Fresian Towers apart from the fact that it's chuffing freezing again. One of the cats miaowed and begged to be let out this morning (We don't have a catflap) and last a minute and a half. He poked his nose out of the front door and then ran inside again. And he's in a fur coat - I suspect it will be chillier for me :D

    Pennies

    PAD/Spends - £35
    Entertainment - £141.79
    Groceries - £62.50
    Outstanding debt - None :D
    ISA - £52.50

    Have to admit, I'm quite chuffed that having paid off the debt a week ago I've already been able to find £50 :D:D

    Best dash - need to be in work for eight today as doing overtime for lovely shiny double time!

    So that's what was going on!
    Haha! Yup, although we did take the opportunity to have Fun With Icicles while we could :D At the moment Edinburghers are being advised to clear icicles where it's safe to do so, as obviously someone could be badly hurt if one fell and they were walking underneath.

    When the snow finally falls off my roof, I hope I'm nowhere around :eek:
  • Well done FF on your success I guess a lot of hard work was involved you are certainly an inspiration to us all that it can be done and I hope one day to be able to follow in your's and others footsteps, although I suspect Mr F was helpful during your plight of freedom (which more than I can say for mine:mad:) even though he has the left overs from his wages after the transfer is done which could be anything from £200.00 upwards granted that some is used towards diesel for the month but he seems to come crawling back after a fortnight for a top up (which doesn't help) well I have updated today's diary for today and will no doubt make changes later on,

    Once again WELL DONE :T:T
    :smiley:Looking to a brighter happier future:smiley:
    Nectar reward card= £6.08, Budget Card Savings =£50.00, Tesco Saving stamps= £20.00, Sealed Pot =??not opening yet.:)

  • It is weird I haven't seen any icicles in Glasvegas at all since snowmageddon began. Maybe they are an east coast phenomena or else I don't pay much attention.

    FF a question for you. You have a PAD/Spends budget and an ISA budget. Is the PAD one stuff you PAD if you don't spend it?

    Sorry if I've missed this X
