    13/23 please

    I've drunk far too much this month. Thinking about taking a break the whole of May. It would help funds and let me read a few books which I would love.

    Overdraft And 1 credit card paid off.

    6 please, ShaggyI am doing particularly badly this month so far. Been on hol for a week, then the Easter weekend - no excuse, I must get firmly back on that wagon. ;)

    Sorry to be a pain, Shaggy, but please can I update my March total to 22?
