I've always had a second current account for my monthly direct debits and this won't change. I'll try for six months and see if I find this works. Everything is being tracked on a spreadsheet which makes me happy as I just *love* spreadsheets and keep looking at it in case I can update it!! :rotfl:
Fingers crossed

In the process I’ve got myself a company Amex (no longer being out of pocket while waiting on expenses to clear!) and a laptop (meaning I can work from home every now and again and may no longer need a weekly bus pass!). Yay, life’s good.
I secretly wish I could fly economy and pocket the extra £2.5k that Business Class costs but hey ho, when am I ever flying Business Class again?! I may as well bl00dy enjoy it this time!
Wow! :T :j

Evening all,
Tough day today, hard to work the last day of the month when your heart's not quite in it!
This is me today:-
- Checked banking - no maintenence from ex, will give him until Saturday then remind him
- Called HBOS to see if they would offer me a 0% BT, only for 6 months at the moment so will stick with cards as they are
- Sold a purge (£2.50 commission)
- Watch ML on TV tonight
- Investigate cheapest way of washing clothes
- Investigate Aldi with my shopping list
- General internet surfing to stay out of trouble!
JxNothing to report as yet...give me a minute...!0 - 
            hey all
not had a very good day today - sucks being the boss at times.
anyway, not tooooo bad on the nsd front - had a mini mini roll for brekkie which was free as someone's birthday. Had lunch out but 11.50 only then dinner from stores and a nice piece of cake I brought home from work!
Desperately trying not to spend and feel I shouldn't have gone for lunch today and didn't even enjoy it!
still, tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it!I want to be a writer0
