I took the students on a trip and taught a class today. I treated myself to a sorbet from the icecream shop (total spend including some charity money £5) . I usually don't buy anything but wanted to as it's my last week. I also bought a bus ticket for next week £24.50. If i work hard i will treat myself with a few trips to the sea. Tomorrow I am visiting Charles Dickens birthplace which will be a blast as I love him! I am hoping I will be able to claim my expenses too which will give me some spending money. I will also get my wages for this month from this job and I can use them to pay for my computer.

Then on Saturday it's Stonehenge and Salisbury. :beer: We are waiting for thunderstorms? I think I can hear them in the background. Personally I don't want the sun to stop.

I have just paid for my laptop. Hurrah. Now I have about £60 left till payday. So happy. Oh yes the storm didn't happen and the garden is very dry.

My summer job was supposed to end tomorrow I told them that I would not be able to afford to travel to them if I was only teaching one class. So they have offered me two classes and have given me a free bus ticket (worth £75) for the next 3 weeks! So happy.

3 weeks left of my hols and that is enough time for me to prep some notes for work. I will go to the New Forest to see the boys next weekend. Plus I can travel for free on buses and I only have to work for 2 hours a week!

I was a bit naughty and bought a Chinese meal (£5.50) and a book from the Charles Dickens Museum (£12.99)

Well done on extra earnings paying for laptop and treating yourself to a Chinese and a book ! It is allowed considering all the work you have put in free bus ticket is amazing too

Enjoy Stonehenge and Salisbury tomorrow the weather should be cooler for you

You are right it was cooler Skinty but still warm. Stonehenge was wonderful. WONDERFUL. We went round the stones and we all felt something. It really is a spiritual place even though we can no longer touch the stones. The essence is still there. I want to quit my job and become a Druid. Have you ever met an Indian Druid I am the first I think. Where does one apply?

Total spend today £4.50 (for fruit, postcards, sweets, icelol).

Reality dawns, the shower died yesterday. Handyman has been and has ordered the broken part (£30.00)We have to wait till it comes for the shower to be repaired but baths are ok thank goodness. It's raining hard out there. I am watching a bit of catch up tv as I haven't seen any for weeks. I have plenty of work to prep for when term starts for the rest of the day.

Once I have paid my credit card off I am going to stick to my plan not to eat out as I think it is a waste of money. I don't know if I gain anything apart from weight and bills. lol. So from now on I am going to be having sarnies with me when I go out.

Ooooh, I love Stonehenge too. My parents have often regaled me of tales of when they used to go, back in the days when you could sit amongst the stones...!!!8230;

Waiting for DD to wake up so we can think about going on our girls' trip!

Hi Dolly, Dr's was just to sort out a blood test. All is good. Enjoy the planning Kittykins! All is well here.
