    A few weeks off and a new teacher may make a significant difference. If possible try to put it to back of your minds till sept.

    That's what I'm hoping SJ, figure it can't be any worse and to be fair, neither of us warmed to thsi Teacher upon first meeting her..

    All garden stuff purchased for £630 and a few essentials for the plumbing and paint for the kitchen - all came to about £670.. I've just sent £750 to the CC, so will do a proper update on debt asap.

    Aim to get under £1500 this month..

    Thanks for thinking of me last night DF0D :), I feel better today.

    Oh no to the flood, hope DH has managed to sort it out (assuming DH is sorting it!)

    I always got my 2's shoes from Clarks and for the first time ever DD2's have lasted since September!

    Another £50 sent to the debt, but still waiting for figures to update properly. An early morning with DS meant £5 snaffled on a pr0filic survey.

    happy Monday all!
