    I did spend today but it hasn't all been bad. I am staying within set budget, as long as I don't spend tomorrow, I will be fine, Friday I can get lunch out whilst I am travelling I may even re-coup this as I am going to travel for work, although admittedly I have no real purpose there except to say goodbye to Colleague, but I will be working the first part of the day. So I hope they don't mind the expense - they may do in which case I have overspent..it is not drastic I'll sort next week. Luckily there were some more peops whom wanted to contribute towards colleagues leaving present, although I have overspent on my contribution again, nevermind.
