    Never got round to coming back to post yesterday :o. Really enjoying being off from usual work but it's flying by too quickly, how can it be Friday already?

    Payday from 2nd job - £95.93
    - £92.58 hen do accommodation
    - £2 car fund
    - £1.35 debt

    Transferred the money to the girl organising the hen do. Need to find out if there's parking at the accommodation as thinking I might drive and then I can maybe combine the weekend with a quick visit to see my brother and sil before heading home.

    £2.35 paid to the debt today - £27.70/£115.44, 81.2% paid :)

    Need to start focussing on getting money in the car fund as there's only £80 in there and my car tax and service will be due next month.

    Well last week was a total write off, I had a really bad infection in my tooth which resulted in me taking time off work (1st time for over 6 years!). The swelling in my face has gone down but my jaw is still really tender, dentist again tomorrow just to check everything is ok. Food budget is blown as OH was in charge of it :eek: ah well almost payday :D

    Payday on Friday past from 2nd job - £122.03
    - £30 car fund
    - £15 emergency fund
    - £10 electricity bill
    - £40 holiday
    - £15 petrol
    - £12.03 debt
    Unfortunately I had to cancel my shift with 2nd job last week so no extra money on Friday :(

    Over the past week or so, I've paid £21.03 towards the debt so £48.73/£115.44, 82% paid :T
