Spent last night sweating terribly, think the fever finally broke. Headache went as well around 1am. Been to doctors today as the laryngitis has returned but only mild . I have a bout of tonsillitis! Antibiotics! . Way to early in the year to be having any of this. I made it to work though so can't be that bad.
Not a NSD as paid £8.80 for the pills ! No news on the refund of car insurance, I have a bad feeling about it . Trying not to stress though.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

NSD first good news . Secondly have had confirmation from the insurance company that I don't want insurance with that they are reimbursing me minus £25 cancellation fee. Once I have the credit back on my card I am going to dispute the fee. Nothing ventured nothing gained.
Tomorrow I have my volunteering after work for two hours so a long day. I am feeling slightly better this evening.
Thursday I am meeting a friend for a curry. Friday another friend is popping round for a meal. Saturday I am off to the lakes to see another friend . It's all go and everything comes at once.
Am enjoying a quiet evening tonight .This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

Quick check in whilst DGD is having a snooze. Curry night last night and catch up with friend very nice cost £20 and got a lift there and back. Chippy tea tonight no more than £3 each. Tomorrow lunch in lakes not sure how much that will be.
Then no more outings until after payday on the 18th ! Have frozen my gym membership for 3 months as my get up and go has gone at the moment plus I won't be here for December . More for the Christmas and Oz pot. I will walk for exercise in the next few months .
