    My course work has just arrived! Tremendously exciting, I'm putting off opening it until I've done everything that I'm supposed to do first. Once it's opened I think my main task will be putting a plan together for studying.

    Ooh sounds exciting, what course are you doing?

    morning all. haven't been on here for a while. hope you are all well

    We've missed you, is everything ok?

    I've been missing for a few days, started new job properly on Monday and after two days am having doubts. I'm exhausted, the shifts are completly different to what I was told at interview and there are lots of annoying things cropping up. Main problem for me is gonna be the money, I knew I was gonna be taking a wage drop but they take bits of money off you here and there and I'll be earning less minimum wage for 40hours work. A lot of the other staff are unhappy too. I'll see what happens in the next couple of months.
    Sorry, peeps, moan over. Two days off so gonna try and be productive..

    Hope you manage to get things sorted

    So far, so good!


    Have
    • cancelled tv package as am swapping to freeview (saving approx £40 per month)
    • Cancelled home phone as dont really use (saving approx £15 per month
    • Cancelled gas and electric dd as they charge me £70 per month and on average I spend approx £30 per month. So gone to quarterly billing, saving me the hassel of constently calling up asking for refunds (today got refund of £93 for gas alone!)
    • Giving up wine for lent (yeah right...HA HA HA)
    • Last nights leftovers for lunch
    • Walking home after work instead of bus (save £1.70)
    • Leftovers again for tea
    I feel very pleased and smug and am going to bask in my own loveliness...!!:A

    Wow, well done, lots of great money saved :T
