    Today has been rather spendy - £110 transferred to my sister for the accommodation, £18.25 on food, £1.20 on a paper, £18.25 on petrol, £6 on toiletries and £28 on entry to a 10k race (not budgeted for but will use money from 2nd job).

    Budgets currently look like £110/£250 holiday/social, £34.91/£200 food/toiletries and £18.25/£110 petrol.

    Today has been a NSD other than a couple of direct debits. Did some surveys this evening so once the pending balance in PA clears, that will be another £20 to the car fund :)

    Thanks ABA, my plan is to just have my monthly car payment left by the end of the year.

    Today I spent £5.85 on lunch with an old colleague who I was on training with and £5.06 on some stuff for lunches for the next 2 days.

    Yesterday was a NSD :)

    Today I spent £10 on a leaving gift for someone at work and £16.77 on food. I'm away from tomorrow until Thursday with my family so that's to keep OH fed. I'm also leaving him £15 of the food budget for any other bits he might need while I'm gone. I probably won't post at all until I'm back so hope everyone has a good week :)
