Omg I've just not been keeping count at all this month. I've got one today though!2

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
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.
