All plans have changed we are not going home for the weekend mainly as I already have something booked in for that weekend but also because the reality is it wouldnt just cost £100 in flights.
Feeling slightly fed up trying to making ends meet this week, I have to put petrol in the car today only have £20 and im not sure that will get me to next Tuesday morning no plans for the weekend so hope it will be fine.
I am making a late new years resolution that I wont be in this situation next year I will plan for this long month no more fretting if I can afford petrol.
