Just realised I hadn't posted last night - I text him last night and haven't heard back
although he did have a big interview today re. his placement.

Morning all, well still no reply from him, guess that tells me what I need to know
Doesn't make much sense though as he always tries to chat to me when he sees me at school and all that about asking me to do a statement for him, will see what he says next week but I guess my answer is there from the ignored text
So, moving on ....
Today, the weather looks yuk, we have mums dog here for the weekend, so the plan is
(a) to get the flat under some sense of control, its awful at the moment, washing everywhere, needs a damn good clean etc etc ...
(b) sort banking for the month ahead
(c) wait in for food shop delivery (3-5)
(d) take the dog for a walk along the beach
(e) start thinking about xmas :eek:Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Just entered the meter reading, somehow I forgot to do it at the beginning of November, so for the last two months it works out at £36 per month electric used :T Very happy with this considering the time of year (and I have no gas in the flat)
The heating did get switched on for a couple of hours last night but its not cold enough yet today for a re-appearance, maybe laterThe account is currently £146 in credit with this months payment not gone out yet either :T

We've been and done a few little jobs, including returning the library books and paying the fine
Pleased that its finally done now though and I can forget about them
Spent £5 on a picture frame for ds school photi, then another £3.10 on a gift bag and a christmas card from ds to his dad.
After that we picked mum up and took the dog down the beach, it was gorgeous down there today, a bit windy but lovely and sunny

£80 of tesco shopping just delivered :eek: No idea how it came to that much, not that much there more than normal, although the 12 bottles of Smirnoff Ice are a December addition
