    Hi All

    Late declaring to the game - had a lot going on in real life but have been keeping my receipts and reading all your posts. Belated thanks for those passing on 'well dones' for my exam pass

    18/11 - £4.88 in Mr S
    21/11 - £8.23 in Mr S
    22/11 - £7.50 in M+S
    23/11 - £2 in Mr S
    23/11 - £1 on a bowl of peppers at the market
    24/11 - £1 in Mr S
    30/11 - £1.55 in Mr S
    £50 on my share of a Mr O shop
    £1.50 in corner shops
    £1 in Bo0ts

    Total = £77.66

    Brings me over budget to £159.90. Although over, my overall bank balance is looking a lot better than it has for a long time. That's because I've been staying in to study at weekends (and buying wine to have with a nicer lunch) instead of going out.

    See you all over in December
