It's nice to think that I should be able to have the freedom to choose what I do in a few years time. It's always nice to have a break to look forward to as well.

Happy payday! I've done the money shuffle. I've sent £100 to PBs. Whenever I get paid for the election I plan on sending that to PBs as well. I'm sure they gave me a date so I'll have to check when it's due.
I've got umpteen meetings today and want to finish some mandatory training, so best crack on.
Have a good day everyone"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee8 -

Always a good day. To you too

Hope the poll clerking goes smoothly.The thought of spending the whole day having to make polite conversation with someone I don't know is stressing me out. But I'm sure it will be fine. I shall be taking stuff to do as it's likely to be very quiet as it's only PCC elections here.
