Not sure I'll not how much 'better off' or not, I am 'til next pay day-beginning of may. As hours have been cut at work it may be that my wage doesn't reduce as much as it was going to-but at least with the tax thing I won't be as poor as I was expecting to be. Mr tc won't really know/feel it until he does his accounts.
Well done Till with your slight increase due to tax allowance going up.GE 36 *MFD may 2043

Morning, Friday seems to come round far more quickly these days than it used to
Let's see if I can remember my social life for this weekend, given I forgot yesterday. We compromised yesterday evening - no walking as it poured but we did have a few games of scrabble which always ends up with Mr T cheating. Parent's evening as well - well done DS. Fitting all this in before going out, was a bit stressy but we had a great evening after we'd escaped :T
Anyway turning to important things :T. Payday has arrived.
So Halif@x shuffle coming up today, all pennies in offset pots OPd - just over £3.
I'm off to make lunches and get to work early - have a great Friday :T:T

Hi Tilly
Don't suppose you want to come and do my garden too while you're at it? LOL I'm not a keen gardener although I am enjoying seeing the flowers finally starting to show0 -
Hi Bookworm, I love growing veg and fruit and chopping trees down, cutting hedges, hanging baskets but I don't have the love of gardening to plant herbaceous borders etc.
If I lived near you I'd be happy to pop over with my hedge cutters :rotfl:
