    Well it looks like she must have been reading my diary because today shes cooking 2 lasagnes - one for today and one for later in the week!:T
    I did a job for a mate yesterday and he insisted on giving me £40 quid so I put a tenner away to replace that lost in the week. The rest i gave to my OH and told her to go out. Coincidentally ;), my bros OH was going out too so I had to go and keep him company by beating his !!! on Pro Evo Soccer on his new XBOX (its a man thing)! and as my OH and his OH went out together it all worked out nicely, almost as if me and my bro had planned it all so we could play computer games all night without any grief :D.

    Twas my last day at my old job yesterday too and over the last week they've certainly made sure they have squeezed every last bit of work out of me! So now I feel a lot of relief to be leaving the dept, I'll miss most of the people who work in it but i'll still see them about sometimes as its all the same company. But there is going to be a few more changes in the dept and non of them are going to benefit my old job. Onto my new job, i've spoken to the bloke i'll be working with and hes confident we'll be millionaires this time next year (he keeps calling me rodney too?) :beer:
    Anyways this is my first weekend off in about 6 or 7 so today was my first lie in for a long time and I lay in till..... 4.30pm :eek:

    Whereas what ACTUALLY happened was that she planned it to look like you had planned it :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I am officially on the Mortgage Free Wannabe path now! We have made £144 in over payments this month and dare I say it, it wasn't all that hard to spare the cash! Onward and upward as they say, I think we may have to over pay a bit more next month!
