So....fingers crossed that the ash cloud doesn't affect things in the next couple of days! And DT, I have my bag of euro change ready for the fountain!
Today, when I get to work, I will be working out exactly how much of my bonus will be allocated to expenses, and what I have left for a bit of savings - even if I only put a few ££ away, I want to be able to save some of it. Just because I can! I am going to be paying for my summer holiday today, though, which will be a biggish cost, but again one that is lovely to pay in "cash" for a change!

Well done on the bonus Hypno. Can't wait to get to Rome either, also slightly worried about the ash cloud in case is messes things up, we're a week later, don't know if that will turn out to be a good or bad thing re. ash!!
URG123 - happy first aniversary, Bruges is one of my favorite place. Only warning is it's mossie season with the canals!! So 'be prepared' Ok I'm their favorite food source which doesn't help - OH gets ignored when I'm nearby. If you don't want moules et frites, or mayo et frites, we go to a sicilian restaurant there called Sale e Pepe, it's one the locals use, it's down a very narrow alley but near the big square, you do tend to need to phone to get a table, it's not the cheapest, but for a special meal it could be nice. Tripadvisor has it at 4 *s, but that seems like just a few recent ones gave it unusually low scores. We'll be there on Wednesday next week if we can get a table on our way back to England. 0
