    I think you use OPs in much the same way I use my S&S ISA pot :)

    Your OP's add up over the month! Payday for me this week too. No idea why shuffling money is so exciting but in my world it is!

    Gah... pleased to be be home today!

    My early start this morning was thwarted by a tricky little devil known elsewhere as a puncture...so I had to call the breakdown people to come and get me before spending time (and money!) at a garage to get a new tyre. All in all I was almost 3 hours later getting to work than I was hoping for when I got up.... :( fail...

    Work wasn't brilliant either - as there has been a big account lost today... which always makes things a bit blah...plus I've had a unrepentant niggly headache all afternoon too. I'm hoping that after some meds and a good nights sleep..it will go away...

    Anyone had anything good/nice/interesting happen to them today that I can share in??

    BW :)

    Sorry to hear that today was a bit of a washout.

    I walked to and from work (about 11,000 steps) in the sunshine and got to lie on the couch with my baby daughter kicking me through her Mum :)
