Well done for making your point LondonGirl. :T I know how hard it can be in that environment.

Kind and well meaning as your colleagues are though, they are a bit naughty for thinking the answer to the problem is just to sub you. Unfortunately debt busting (like weight loss ) involves changing your habits and they probably can't see that. It's also not fair to make you feel obligated.

I'm sure you will cope fine - keep strong. Setting money aside for a Christmas social fund is a good idea. Mind you, will you need a summer one as well? Are you the Ascot type? :cool:

Thanks

Yes they're really well meaning but you're right and that's what I find hard to explain, that next month and the month after it will be just as hard to pay them back so I don't want to be subbed at all, I dont want to have to pay anything back. If they knew the full story they might understand more, I think they think I'm stressing over nothing...

Thanks, yes definitely Ascot is my all time favourite races EVER! Maybe £15 a month into each as of Jan. I'm of the thought that 2012 will be another holiday-less year so a social fund will be a must

My flatmate has got her new man over, this is date 5 and she cooked for him said a quick hello and retreated to my room to leave them to it!

Im getting things ready for tomorrow, outfit to change into - skirt, boots, tights, top. And running kit for a lunchtime blast.

Does anyone watch Frozen Planet? Im obsessed, it's incredible!

Sorry, even if I could get hold of the remote when there is football on then nature programmes aren't really my thing.

Now a nice BBC2 documentary about the Stuart/Regency period would go down a teat!

Nope not my thing either, although all my friends seem to like it. I'm hooked on those Discovery Channel Air Crash Investigation episodes on YouTube at the moment.

Not my thing either but i think its bloody marvelous!!!!
I think all the series they have done on the planet have been fab even some of the photography is amazing and i would never watch these sort of programmes normally. just been watching bits of it just an hour ago.
i do like such a randon range of things though. love homes under the hammer sad cow i know lol

I'm a big fan of Frozen Planet, too.

The collapsing frozen waterfall was incredible!

I've also just watched 'Yellowstone' which was on at some daft midnight hour while I was at work but it was so good I'm re-watching on catch-up.

Frozen Planet is awesome! And did you see the making of it, when the killer whales started circling the camera crew's dinghy? Eek!

Mixed reviews on Frozen Planet! Im not always a big nature programme watcher myself but I've really gotten in this!

RR 15 - YES That was amazing, thats what got me hooked, the filming of it all is incredible.

So, todays the day of the meal, hoping I don't get too much pressure to stay out as I want to be able to slope off quietly without any fuss!
