  • well i dont know really... i was thinking maybe £300.00? i get payed roughly £780.00 ~ £800.00 per month thats after tax, ni and pension and dependant on overtime... my bills are £370.28 but that includes driving lessons (once i pass in june/july i will be saving £120.00 more) so wages - bills = £409.72... but of course if i dont spend the £100 in the month or i have a short month more can be added as and when :)

    My laptop just crashed! Thats over £1200 by September saving £300 per month. You could pay the college next month out of that and then save the other £100 for moving out. You should have enough for both by September. However find out when they need the money. Off to work now must rush.

  • Hi PAP

    I just thought i'd leave a message for you (i read it all the time but rarely post) here as i saw you had been scared off the weight-loss thread earlier by it being merged. Don't give it up too quickly though, i think theres a few DFWs going to stick around and give it a try so it would be nice if you did too.

    Maybe we could add a line to our signatures which will make it easier to identify fellow DFWs? Any other ideas?

    I reckon with all the money you can save, plus what you get from ebay, that you should be able to pay for college and moving out quite easily.

    Why don't you change your location to DFW - Yorkshire?

    pap,

    I've paid course fees on the night the course started before now. If they asren't oversubscribed (and they seldom are) you'd get away with it most likely!

    If you have only ever lived at home Pap, they will probably be happy with just a character reference - that's if they ask for a reference at all.
