    Hi All,

    My PAD is £5 today please mandz.

    I had a good day at work today, but I was knackered when I finished and I only did 4 hours! :eek:

    I think it'll take me longer to build up to full time than I thought... but at least I'm earning a little bit and I can pay off the debts quicker :cool:
