    Drum role please - I've 'done' the first of the month maths....

    We currently owe the world £2,849.84:j:j

    Its Friday night and i'm on the soft drinks (for a change!) I've got an evening with a friend tomorrow night and have a feeling its going to be a very boozy affair!:p

    I'm still loving my new hours, even had my parents over for dinner on Monday without getting overly stressed - yeh go me!

    Yay, how did I miss this!

    Nearly there (as long as there are no accidental car purchases ;)).

    LOL thank you everyone, the trouble with Gallygirl is she has a memory like a bloody elephant - accidental car purchase - hmm, pot/kettle/black - bought any houses lately:p

    I had a lovely night with my friend last night, didn't get too sozzled! She spoilt me rotten cooking for me :)

    I have just been watching 'Dinner Date', wow some bonkers peeps on there!!

    Theyoungone, I don't know what to do to celebrate, I would love to shout it from the roof tops, but truth be known we won't tell anyone as people will be judgemental, in a weird way. :o There is a lovely pub only about 7 miles from us, that does AMAZING but fairly expensive food, so perhaps we will have a blow out!

    I will be blowing money on a holiday when ours is paid off. I am planning it for when I finish my work contract so it will be a double celebration...unless we pay it off earlier.
