Thanks Toots and Fortune, I can't believe how close I am! I just really hope that the MOT isn't expensive. If it isn't it could be even less!!
Today I went out and all but finished Gromiting! We did stop at the way home and I payed for dinner (£13) and I did get some shoebox supplies from the £1 shop/Works. I am now offically starting on 2014 boxes :T I know some may frown upon this but spending £8 on 8 toys is not much and small purchases amount to not many spends at the end of the year. The only problem with that is I am now running out of room to store itemsAlso I have forgotton about back to school reductions in my debt plan. Usually I spend so much on school supplies once the big supermarkets start reducing their back to school supplies. I will see what happens in the next two weeks about that.
Also I booked tickets for the cake show... The one I mentioned way back up there somewhere :rotfl: A MSE found a great deal for basically BOGOF and that I couldn't turn down. So I will need to 'find' £40 for travel (maybe after MOT before CC?), megasbus (cheapest) to get there and back but we will take a couple packed lunches and I may take a few bob just in case. However I will be using it more as a educational/inspiration trip rather than somewhere to buy supplies.
Exciting! Feeling much much better than Thursday/Friday but I guess life works as peaks and troughs. I am now out of that trough for now :T

MOT day... Just droped the car down and cost me nearly £3 to get home! I did plan to ride home but the faff of getting the bike in the car and then putting the car back together etc was too much for me. So now the phone call awaits!

No idea Sparkes, thats my next phone call. Otherwise I have £450 to buy a new car, I didn't get to my target and with a vet visit/mot cost that will be my limit plus anything extra from work this Friday.
The problem is this means no chance of becoming debt free/lappy/decorating until next year nowPlus maybe no holiday... Grrr
