Have never been to Scotland-it is on my to do list though. Thanks for the invite I hope to get up there one day (well probably for a few days, it's a long way to travel for just 1 day. )

phew what have i been up to ? well nothing really, in fact nothing at all, been working crazy shifts and feel shattered.com but am managing to survive, am nights all weekend then again on Tuesday night so really its going to be Thursday before i get a break.

Have been keeping an eye on the finances, nothing much is happening at all though, i havn't had any Tilly Tidies for days ( i miss them) but i have been logging all spends and income in my new book, i think it will take me a wee while to get on top of the way i want to do this book but i think i will like it, sadly it will only take me to the pennies not the parts of pennies ... maybe i should learn to do spread sheets lol

The book i have has space for 27 headings, i thought before i bought it that i would have too many spaces but i think i have just made it.

Have decided to divide the finances into the following headlines

In
Out
Wages
Extra money ( this is for the interest from accounts and halifox etc)
Interim savings ( for the Tilly tidies etc)
Savings
Expenditure
Shopping
Clothes
Eating out/take aways
Fun ( theatre/cinema etc)
Diesel
Car repairs
Work ( Mr el take £10 a week for work money)
Insurance
Endowment
Council tax
T.V Phone and broadband
Mobile
Gas & Elec
Pension ( still working out what i am doing here but have a current plan of action)
ISA ( both cash and stocks and shares ISA)
Holiday
Home and Garden ( repairs etc)
Mortgage
Misc
Total

i think i have covered everything but if you can think of anything i havn't covered please feel free to say

i have to try and get back onto my blog but have had not had time or energy sadly
