    Hi All

    I've been a bit chocker with work and home stuff and I've not really had the chance, or energy, to get online. This I've done tonight to bring my spending diary upto date and get organised in anticipation of payday on Friday.

    The bad news is that there won't be much debt reduction this month. The Virgin card has taken the PC purchase and for some bizaar reason there was an outstanding balance on the old (now used B/Card) which had to be paid off (£127) therefore the debe is only going to reduce by £100c this month. I'll be down as well as I missed my expenses althouogh I do get a payrise this month. I'm not sure what OH's expenses will be like this month but they will go straight off the debt when they come in later in the month. Last month they were only £96 :(

    I don't even want to discuss the food budget last month - :(:( Some entertaining to go with the footie :beer: so its not looking good.

    Work is hard work at present but it will pass......

    Kids are heading towards the end of term tired.....that will pass

    Roll on summer :)
