    Not been on here since before Easter as OH suddenly taken ill, taken into hospital, diagnosed with Lymphomas in his brain and now in intensive care after biopsy made tumour bleed. (If any of you have read my DF diary you will have followed the scary story.) He is starting to recover a bit now so thought it was time I got my act together moneywise. So I've tidied up the bank account and shifted some money to my VSP.

    Therefore..... #19 reporting in with an addition of £13.25 making my new total £144.69.
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)

    #60 new total £58.93 :j I have decided to pay £54 to Barclay card as I think May is going to more expensive (car in garage!) and I feel better about the money reducing the debts then saving once evil card is paid off

    .

    Oh Sun Addict - that sounds awful, Hope your OH continues to recover well.

    I've decided to take a slightly different approach to my VSP challenge. I've only been counting the money transferred every week to round down to nearest £ - I've decided to count the odd cashback, interest from current a/c etc (not much but all counts :)) - so my new balance for this week is £50.86 :A


    Thanks for keeping the thread going Palema - it's a good focus :A
