Just under an hour till 2016..I went BR in April 2013 discharged April 2014:beer: at the time I lived in a bungalow with a spare room and had bedroom tax deducted from my Housing Benefit and had to start paying a 20% contribution from my council tax
Fast forward to 31st December 2015 it's 23.32 pm and nearly 2016..
Last couple years have been OK financially, I got a job finally after hundreds of applications in a small local family run grocery shop in Staffordshire which meant I had to move so I exchanged my bungalow for a one bed roomed flat just round the corner from where I work so no travelling costs, wages are fine it means I can pay the rent and put food in my body but I need to start economising as 2016 doesn't look like I'm gonna win the lottery, don't worry I don't waste my money buying lottery tickets.
Just watching everyone in London waiting for the Big Ben chimes so am I ..I'm tucked up in my new fluffy dressing gown and slippers scoffing my frugally homemade curry and drinking my glass of Carling ooh I do know how to live:rotfl::rotfl:
So will be restarting my mutterings and hopefully whimsical musings on life.
Everyone all the best for 2016 and a healthy happy year
Regards
