    Welcome home Cal:) I'm gad you enjoyed London and woweeee for the tablet:T

    Thanks NP :) Tablet is pretty snazzy. Glad you're back too!

    Unfortunately, last night did not turn out as expected. Got into my car to drive off - flat tyre. Tried to pump it up, nothing. So, going to have to get at least one new tyre, probably more :/

    Feeling unmotivated today. Sick of being poor, but then I waste my money. During term-time it was coffee, in holidays it is now books. Bah.

    Can't get into the right frame of mind to write up this paper. Uni starts back in just over a week, don't know how I'm going to be motivated for it.

    Bleurgh. Where's the chocolate?

    Small OP of less than £50 for September so far :( Even once my student loans come in I'll need to keep it aside for MOT.

    Back to uni a week today :eek:

    Just caught up on your diary...love it. What a cheerful read and so motivating ....must go back to work now though!!
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Thanks SS. I have no problem reminding everyone else but when it's me, I'm like 'Aw :('

    Thanks Watty1, I didn't think it was cheerful or motivating, but good! Looking back, it seems to be me moaning and talking about food a lot :rotfl:

    In general, have boxed up items to be returned, HM curry and takeaway naan for dinner, writing letter for uniform rebate, filled out tax form to send away. Has anyone here done the uniform claim? I have a question :o

    Feeling good today, although only had about 6 hours sleep.

    Friend has been signed off sick just now and was tearing up the walls so went out with her last minute yesterday. Hence being up late. Meant a spend on cinema and petrol, but less than £10 was good for a catch-up and the cinema! Saw 'We are the Millers', which was surprisingly good and very funny. Since I'll be back to uni next week and won't have time to see people then I figured it'd be okay to go out.

    Up to uni today at lunch time, managed to avoid the temptation of lunch and a coffee, had lunch when I came home and am now nursing a cup of tea, so feeling quite :A Quite full though :o

    Meeting with supervisor went well, she always seems to think I'm doing well and I always think progress is slow! Quite excited for N. Ireland next week, people are saying 'Oh it's grey and miserable' but any travel makes me a happy bunny :D

    Off to (try) more project stuff!

    Cal x
