    It's the weekend, for me anyway! :p Woohoo!!

    3 days to do as I please..

    Went to see Elvis tonight, he was on good form..:rotfl:

    Then random act of kindness.. My neighbour (which I have only spoken to once before) just popped over to give me a huge plate full of homemade indian food.. She felt bad as she could not find me when Diwali took place earlier this week.. There are still some genuinely nice people out there.. That just made my day ;-)

    Hope everybody is well..

  • Hi Froggy, I am very new here, I started to read your first few posts, then I realised they were 2 years ago :)

    Do you have a summary of how your journey has gone? Top effort by the way in keeping this thread going for so long. :T

    Oops, seems to have gone AWOL again :o

    Payday today, so just like Tilly, I will be celebrating! :j:j:j

    Unfortunately, nothing to add to the pot as it has been quite a spendy month..and I need to keep some money aside to buy xmas presents..

    I am on a training course all day, but hopeful I can sneak away at lunchtime..Only time will tell..

    I have started looking for a new car (second hand) as I want to end the lease early on my current car.. This will probably take place after the end of March (when FD saver ends and work bonus is paid out)..

    Also still considering starting studying for work, but this decision will take place at some point in January..

    Hope everybody is well?
