    Thanks SF, I will certainly find a way - there is no way I am letting this get the better of me!!

    In the old days, I would just have survived with the credit cards to hand to get me through, but those days are now behind me and we will prove to ourselves that we can manage without them. I just hope that OH is as committed to it as I am. It will be a test next week because the tax on his car is due and I don't have the money to renew it :o So he will have to find some other way of getting to work. It shouldn't be too hard, he has a motorbike, but sometimes he just gets into the car out of habit or laziness! As long as he doesn't take my car, we will be just fine!

    Hypno......I always insert a new worksheet for the next month and then copy the previous month in (just your basic copy & paste) but amend any figures that will change i.e. salary might change slightly or some months phone bill is cheaper or more expensive or whatever.

    So in a nutshell, yes, you can just copy & paste for the next month.

    I have mine planned out till September :eek:
