Morning guys
Hope you don't mind me starting off. Was up early with OH and packed my stuff for the weekend (we're going to our parents and he's driving up with our stuff after work, but I have a work do tonight so have to get an evil train).
Today's a spender:
£14 trainfare (I think. Has been a while. Only need a single)
£6 lunch (am treating self today. Haven't anything in fridge to even attempt to cook from, and have lost weight so am going to binge on fresh stuff at the Crussh smoothie bar!)
£7 ish cab to station later (will claim back from work, as it's a work do thing)
Eek.
Plus side though, had £30 of eBay money clear today, which covers it all.
Have a lovely day everyone! xx

Let me let you into a little secret, but don't tell anyone :shhh: :shhh:Whisper - 'This is now my FOURTH day without a cigarette.'Have a good weekend bobbadog. :beer:I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

Hopefully I can get away with just the £1.10 fare to work if I can. On my way back to uni today after a week at home, managed to get the train for £5.95 (good old FGW) but that came out yesterday. Knowing my housemates I'll have to buy tea though, never any food in the house when I get backThis is getting addictive!
