    ooh been a bit slack with my diary.

    had such a good time in cornwall :)

    have been robbed by a gardener though :( paid nearly £500 for some railway sleeperes to do some work in my garden and they just havent turned up. been on going for 8 weeks now. i've asked him for my money back so he's got until next friday to pay and then ill be going after him via the small claim court. half our savings gone.

    and because its safety issue (need to builda wall so its safe in our garden) we've had to buy the m aterials our selves to get it done ourselves. more money :(

    anyway...trying not to get too down about it. debt is coming down not going up so thats whatmatters. £5500 on my credit card now so paid off £1400 since being back at work which i am quite pleased with.
