    Unexpected NSD for me today, as I developed a cold with sore throat yesterday evening and I will not be going to my book club tonight, sadly, as I have to be in the office early tomorrow and I think an early night will be the best idea.

    Another one I am not sure about. The payment came out of my account today for theme park tickets. I booked them last week and marked it as a spend then , but they only just took the money this morning. 

    Other than that the only money I have spent is on fuel. Both are in my  budget  :D

    Submitted meter readings and finally the usage is looking healthy. Will be back in the black by the end of this month, when my next DD comes out.
