  • They always come at the worst times don't they!

    I'm sure I owe someone £5 for a sponsor sheet that came around just before Christmas but I may or may not have paid it already - will find out soon enough if they come chasing me for it!

  • Do you not get any sort of insurance with your bank account? We travel insurance with ours.

    Travel insurance worked out £25 for me and my boy. Paid this off.
    Car insurance awaiting £30 to go through TCB but not showing so lodged about this.

    Not gonna lie think will just go to Farmfoods after work for food and pay off holiday tomorrow after work when not in rush. On my lunch meeting my friend paying the £100 for Log cabin.

    After this weekend I will be focusing on gym training. Got to get into training for run in June, plus this means I will not be spending money on stupid things :)

    This will be a tight month but its for holiday of a lifetime xx
