    Hi everyone!

    Am off out later (being dragged to see Harry Potter -I HAAAATTEE those films so much :() but bloke is desperate to see it so he's bribed me with Ben and Jerry's. It must be love eh :rotfl:

    So posting my pad for the day now of £15.15. The fact that this is the division of my usual monthly payments and overpayments pleases me greatly - I love nice smart numbers like that!

    Welcome to all newbies, you will love it here! Warm up in December to give Paul a nice big total and then you will have to help us reach 600k next year!

  • Hi all.
    Slight delay in the totalling.
    Yesterday's PAD total was a very respectable
    £1,043.59

    Congratulations on a decent December daily total and special mention for Flying_Fresian on her debt free status.

    I haven't been on the PC since early yesterday morning. As I have been unable to work due to the travel situation, I crawled my van across town to my friends' place. Due to school closure, a child minder was required (me) to allow others to go to work. The travel situation worsened during the day so I stopped over for a second day of punishment :) (how do you women cope with kids LOL?). I even got snowballed and didn't have a change of clothing (wasn't expecting to stay over).
    Anyway, no snow today so I borrowed their shovel to clear the space in front of the drive wheels and drove home. Only been back a couple of hours.
    I did splash out a bit. Although my front tyres are still legal (just), I felt that a bit more traction would be a good idea as it's front wheel drive. So I bought two new tyres and unfortunately the best way to do this was on the credit card. The are high pressure tyres so are a bit costly and because I needed them pretty urgently, I had to have two that were in stock (not exactly the cheapest). So I've added over £200 to my credit card debts at the end of a week when I only managed a half day's work. Sometimes these things are difficult to avoid.
    On the plus side, a customer hass made an accidental payment into my account that was meant for someone else :D . She is OK about me keeping it and deducting it from the next invoice. Pretty useful really at the moment :D . Also, my fuel switching fee of £50 has now been paid into my account too.
    Finances a bit wobbly but I have been saving for my tax bill. A bit of that may yet be needed as an emergency fund if the weather doesn't improve.
  • hey lovely PADers, hope everyone's had a good day today. Thank goodness it's Friday and I actually have a weekend off!

    Off to Twickers tomorrow to watch the rugby with DH who is a MASSIVE rugby fan. I, on the other hand, have no comprehension of the game whatsoever and tend to say 'ouch' a lot whenever it's on the telly :D should be interesting, and who know's - I may just stay in the bar :rotfl:

    I'm having a £3 PAD today please Paul, and in case I don't get back in time tomorrow I'll put £2 in the change pot too so £5.00 for me.
    I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions...
  • Yesterday's total was once again, very respectable.
    It was
    £1,276.79

    I won't be making my first PAD of the month until next week. Will be a few hundred going out then.
    I'm not paying a single penny that I don't have to until the Winter is over so it's frugal PAD season for me.
