    Good grief! So much for being organised this year! I was beginning to worry about this weeks extra payment and thinking it would have to be a tiny one!

    So I was looking in a cupboard at a hoard of DVDs thinking I will go through those tonight and sort out the ones we don't watch and get them on eBay. I have a little tin in that cupboard too which I put money in sometimes. For some reason I opened it and there is £80 :eek: I know I should probably pay it all off my card but in light of the lack of emergency fund and unexpected cost I've taken out £20 and put the rest back!

    Lets hope it stays where it is for now and I can pay some more off later :)

    Oh well done Betty! :T

    I'm not in a happy mood because South West trains have cancelled some of their services due to the weather so the "EARLY" train was rammed, AND it's started snowing.. baaah humbug! :mad:

    My purse sweep this week has brought me the grand total of £0.41p :rotfl: At least I managed something I guess. If I hadn't been on a mission to bring my lunches in this year I would have been well over budget!

    Have a lovely weekend and all keep snuggly and warm.
