    Just realised that if I am off-setting my savings against what I owe my brother then that means I can actually adjust my total accordingly. Also a lot of incentive not to dip into the savings unless it's an absolute emergency as then my total would have to go back up if you see what I mean.

    Put the totals into my spreadsheet and that gives me a new total of £15,336 and means I am now at 46% :D

    Oh my goodness!

    Nothing better than a re-jig of the numbers - the right way of course!

    Re-jigging is always good - also means I think I might be able to go sub 15K this month. Going sub a K twice in a month would be amazing! :)

    £210 paid today towards what I owe my brother. Now at 47% cleared :)

    Emz - the casting day is at the Aspex Gallery which they've told me is a short walk from Portsmouth Harbour station? Starts at 12:30 and ends at 5.

    I has assumed it would be photo shoots or something but apparently it's interviews. Not sure if that's good or bad! Better that I won't be worrying my stomach isn't flat enough etc if it had been photos but bad in a way - knowing me I'll say totally the wrong thing! :o

    Well done on getting to 47%. So close to 50% now :j.

    Yeah, I think the Aspex gallery is actually in Gunwharf. Thought it was going to be a spectator thing, but doesn't sound like it.

    £140 to the loan today :)

    I soooo want to get to 50% - after all, it's all downhill from there!

    Weekend was good but busy. Ended up taking a half day on Friday and went shopping with my brother as he's back on leave. Bless him, he bought me a pair of boots for winter as my one's from last year are a bit worse for wear. I never could have afforded these ones so I'm very grateful to him :A

    Worked on Saturday and then went out in the evening to see one of my friends play - he does rock n roll stuff, it's always an entertaining evening with lots of dancing. Didn't get in till 3 in the morning and was a bit hungover on Sunday.

    Managed to get up in the morning though to meet some friends for breakfast and then took the dogs for a few hours walk round the woods - and then asleep on the sofa by 9:30 :o

    And then just like that it's Monday again! :D

    £78 to Barclays CC and 9p to savings :)

    Weather outside is horrible! One advantage of getting to work at 7:15, at least I was in my office before it really heaved it down!
