    I have faith in you Dolly. IF anyone can do this it is you! Worst case you have a bit less spending money right?

    Oh no! You were doing so well too :( Can you owe your Mum until you get paid?

    That's a relief I bet! I get paid 4 weekly at the moment so haven't suffered the looooong January for a few years. Must plan for that happening in 2020...

  • Long January's are the worst!

    Thank god I didn't mess up that badly, I mean it's not a lot to some but that would have killed me for February before it even started.

    Glad you managed to sort out your mix up Dolly - hopefully the short, sharp shock will jolt you into having a super savvy February?

    You've come a long way, so you'll sort this out in no time at all.
