We always get early...public sector payroll thinking they are doing us favour.............not for me as then its a long 6 week stretch until next payday:( I usually swish a enough away into an online savings account that covers all the DDs that way January is not too bad.Be the change you want to see -with apologies to Gandhi

Hi Historybuff.
I've been following your diary but haven't popped out of my shell to comment before now.
Just read your latest posts and, you must feel like you've been kicked in the teeth I just wanted to send virtual hugs and good wishes to you, not that it's any help for you at the moment, but I couldn't read and not post. 0 -
