    OH bought me a newspaper to read in bed this morning. He is off fishing overnight tonight, but he's got bait and stuff already and it's a syndicate water so it won't cost him anything.

    I've had a tough week at work and I'm really tired, I was going to go to the fireworks at the local fire station but given with that poor fireman dead and three others mising I doubt they will go ahead.

    I really don't want to go out other than that, so all being well it should be a total of £1.40 for the day, which I am very happy with!

  • Hi guys,

    I've had a really horrible few days so am really miserable. Have spent £1.84 on sending ebay parcel, was going out with OH tonight but quite frankly I don't want to see him. At least thats some money saved! :rotfl: Sorry, this isn't the thread for woes and misery, just seriously fed up.

    I'll try and cheer up, honest....:o

    Hi free and everybody :hello: :hello:

    Well - I've got the weekend off. :T :T I've had a tough, but enjoyable week's training, and there are still 2 more weeks to go :eek:
    Never realised that a 'Home Shopping' Delivery Job would require so much 'training' - especally as I will only be doing 22 hours a week at the end of it. Still I got my 'Company Mercedes' (Delivery Van :rotfl: ) even a 'Company Mobile' and 'Palm Computer' so I must be doing 'okay'.
    It's another 3 weeks before my first payday so I'm keeping my spends down to the minimum and if I can manage it, today will be a NSD. :):)
    Might need some tobacco later, though.:( :(

    chloebell - I hope things get better for you. :smiley:

    Hi everyone - today I've spent 99p on a magazine, £9 in advance to get my eyebrows done next week and a direct debit for £16 has also gone out of my account to pay bills. So not a very good day then!

    I've just been to do my weekly shop, spent £58.61 which isn't too bad. Apart from that I did the final bit of my christmas shopping which was £74 all within budget and out of the christmas savings account, so again doesn't feel like a spend. I think I've done great this week, 5 NSDs plus shopping under budget:T

    As others and myself have said already: Excellent news on the job front rog2! Seems as though you are enjoying it but also finding it tiring (as all jobs are); and it does look as though they are treating you with respect, which in my opinion really matters. Interview on Monday for myself: I don't hold up much hope. Maybe i'm just being too pessimistic :confused:. Have a lovely evening all :)
