    Hi Gang!:j
    How are you all tonight? My mother is flying back to London tomorrow night...it's going to be a tough couple of days while I try and get back into my Canadian Life - I hate goodbyes.
    The new job is - slowly! - growing on me. I still have to push myself to go in everyday, but everyone has been pleasant enough to me which is half the battle!
    We have spent a lot of money on family related stuff while my mother has been here. The only way I can continue to pay the amount I do is cos this is a combined effort of both my husband and I...I can't wait to start saving!
    Sooo, another $600 paid:
    Canucksfan#249- $13100/$17418.95

    Morning all! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine was pretty mixed debt wise. As I am leaving the South East I decided I need to get to see everything in London. Well, not everything, but as much as I can. So Saturday I went to the National Gallery for the Turner/Claude exhibition and also did the 1hr highlights audio tour of the permanent collection. Was really good fun, but did cost £25 :eek:. However, that was all the money I spent this weekend, as I started my packing on Sunday. I have 4 piles: home for summer, straight to uni, storage and ebay. I am gonna need some boxes tho, anyone know where I can get any for cheapish?

    I found a couple of good deals for boxes online but it was also recommended I try B&Q and Lidl/Aldi for free boxes. I begrudge paying for them!!
