    So, it's payday this Friday and PDL will be paid on the same day. If I have worked my figures out right will be able to reduce the next PDL to £700. Not a massive reduction, but a step in the right direction.

  • With regards to your daughters trip to Nepal - is it world challenge/world adventure? If so don't worry too much because although they cost about £2k the students are made to raise the money for it themselves through fundraising, you may find she can go without you having to pay much or anything at all :)

    I'll be keeping an eye on your diary x
