Comments

Hi All
Very miserable non DFW day for me had to pay £36 ground rent for house and £200.75p on car tax for our 2 cars for 6 months - wish we could take 1 of the cars off the road but impossible at the moment.
Anyhoo thats all my tax credits gone so will pay nursery costs out of wages and my sister b'day is soon, DD's b'day is in the holidays and she's away and we have paid for her to go to France trip so no present (except some clothes) and saving some cash there.
Lunch from home - cheese and pickle sandwich, brough cereal from home but forgot milk 60p for a pint in work - ripoff but colleague brought in chocolates yum
DH is doing the washing at home - weather is good!
Fridge and freezer are full!
Payday on Thursday hooray!
