    Today's OP is just a £1, but I've also paid in a couple of cheques so when they clear I'll pay them over to my savings account. This first proper DFW month, I'm going to Tilly tidy into the savings account, and then next pay day transfer it over. That way I have a little safety cushion if I have (any more) unexpected spendy days.

    Hope everyone is ok? It seems like it's been a long day here, 10 hrs at work :o Bootcamp tonight, and then I can relax properly. OH and DD have been to the cinema today (budgeted for half term entertainment) to see Big 6. Think they both enjoyed it!

    Today's OP: £4.69 from £co, £6 in coppers from my copper pot, and £4.31 to round it up.

    I feel like I'm wishing my life away, can't wait for payday to make larger payments, but I know all the little ones will help too. I'll update the signature on the first of every month I think.
