    Confirmed. As I thought, some trolling might be going on.

    Time for the :spam: button perhaps for the OP.

    So you must be pretty crap at poker, or surely it would feature as an income item as well as an expense? I certainly wouldn't be spending 7.5% of my income on gambling if I earned £1k/mth ;)

    My thoughts too.

    Spending more on gambling than food is :eek: imho.

    Why cant people get a handle on my situation the £75 i pay towards my share of rent covers my rent and food that I consume in the house.

    The other 'food' is money for food at work.

    As for trolling what are you guys even on about this is a serious thread and I would appriciate if morons stayed out
