Morning folks. Am still battling my mind

But here I am and semi awake (in need of espresso LOL) and with yesterday's total
(And I can't remember much of yesterday and no I Know I wasn't drunk LOL:p)
so here it is (sorry am not very chatty)
£65.75
I know it's small but you know that if you padded 50p a day for a year that would be over £180 on your debt that you'd have spent otherwise - that's not even the price of your takeaway coffee on the way to work! :eek:
