    I didn't get to see the photo but I hope you're ok!
  • Lokolo: I think it's a good sign that you've showed so much concern over missing your McDonalds - good to see you can still appreciate the good things in life, and have your priorities straight.

    Hope you're okay, and whatever damage was done heals quickly. Some people are utter b*stards.

    On the bright side - well done on a money saving night out. :)

    I am waiting for mine to break too! Just gone over 61k miles now eek.


    As for me, my student loan came through, £600 in Car Savings, £100 in Uni Savings (not counting towards my main savings goal though).

    This month seems quite good as I don't seem to be spending a lot so I think I might be able to put an extra £100 than planned. Shall wait and see though.

    Aww poor Lokolo - didn't see the pics, but hope you get better soon :)
  • I'm starting to think my post isn't reaching me. My employer told me a week ago they'd received a new tax code notice for me (BR! They can stick that somewhere...) , so I'm hoping to receive my copy soon so I can call HMRC about it. I would have called HMRC to query anyway, but I've been poorly :( Still annoyed I haven't received it yet! I suppose I'll call them as soon as I can talk. And, I haven't received my first credit card statement from Santander. It's been a good 6 weeks since I got the card, and I'd like to know how much I've spent on it. Doesn't help that I've left the card at my boyfriend's gran's house, so can't call up and ask for a balance / register online. Really need to sort that.
