Am lucky that I have enough in my budget to pay for it but means tight for rest of the month and no over payments apart from any extras that I may get.
£20 for driving licence renewal but have enough in budget for this

It's all good tho - long as things are going down!!
I've been AWOL - busy and sleeping mostly! That rug is a 6'9" so too big for what was being looked for - typical!! There's a couple of shops not too far from me that I will take everything to and have a good clear out I think, better than cluttering up the house for nothing anyway!!
New horse didn't happen, sensible head took over even tho he sounded brilliant for me, it's just not worth the extra stress of trying to afford another right now.Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
Good morning
So a lovely very lazy weekend. Was down at OH's and didnt really do much, went out to get some bedding for horse as farm shop cheaper down there so loaded car up and bought back today. £60 spent, £50 a month in budget but will do for 6 weeks so pleased with that.
Wanted to check my Sains CC transactions as min payment out today but the system wont let me in so will try again later.
Away on hols this coming weekend, yay, another week away with OH and his parents in Cornwall so minimum spending again. Loads at work to do before I go away and loads of odd bits to do at home.
Didnt list ebay items this weekend even though had some ready as will be away when the listings end so will be on a mission when get back. Also will be starting the works on the house to get that into a sellable state so will be all go so need to get organised.Debt 13-1-25 - £39K!!!

So Sains bank have let me in, all transactions as expected. £25 received from survey sites today so have sent that to the card.
Have updated signature and is depressing as owe well over £2k on the cc nowBut the sofa looks good. But....have around £120 of expenses due in and this will go straight to the card as some of the spending on there has been for work expenses so could be worse.
Money in bank looks ok and all within budget so far, apart from the stupid phone bill but have moved money around a bit so will be ok and have some money put aside for holiday spends.Debt 13-1-25 - £39K!!!

Good Morning
Small spends yesterday bought some shampoo for holiday got some at home but massive bottle so not easy to lug away but will take to OH's after holiday to replace what I am nearly out of there. Darn this 2 houses lark got 2 of loads of things :cool:
No spend day today and hopefully for next few days as nothing needed to get.
First lot of expenses paid so £91 to the credit card this morning, so takes it to £2225 so thats good. Got some survey money due but waiting for that to it, hurry up. No other over payments due this month due to the stupid phone bill but least had enough to cover it.
Will really be hammering it down hopefully next few months with ebay so hopefully wont be long till its goneDebt 13-1-25 - £39K!!!
