  • 7.20 perscription, £2.45 greggs, £10.30 lunch with friend (she was having a bad day so worth it) will split that 50/50 grocery/entertainment.

    DDs in transit so need to monitor carefully and call NW to arrange transfer to Lloyds. Debit card lost so new one ordered.

    OH going to give me £100 later for bills wont chase for the £2 especially as he bought some engine oil for me oh and a box of chocs as a lovley surprise.

    Not much work done so need to do a bit today and catch up tomorrow on my supposed day off. Not much planned except Cinema with OH using Tesco vouchers. May go look at Vauxhalls as I am due to order a new car soon. Will miss the Zafira and cant order another one :(. The choice doenst look to bad though.

    Saw another friends new house today (been busy not working!!) It was lovely although she is a neat freak that wont rest until its perfect so I can see lots of DIY on the way.

  • Phew mini panic that I had forgotton one of the loan payments so 200 short. Looks like I didnt though. Just activated online banking transfer for each account so can move monies easily now. Paid the 250 into the ISA. hope I can keep that up as will help with either desposit saving or debt repayment. Transfered NW cc to LTSB from standard rate to 0% for 12 months. 1000 with 30 fee but will save monies as interest over half my min payment at the moment so will save within 2 months.
