    Celebratory knickers. It’s a thing 😆

    when I travel, I take my tattiest clothes and leave them behind. I left two pairs of knickers in Spain, plus an old pair of my son’s joggers and a scrappy T shirt, so these are my unholey replacements (not to be confused with the unholy lacy thong variety).

    Total current debt is around the £36k mark, potentially £35.5k as I don’t think my car and bank loans have updated. I’ve paid off about £2k since I last did the maths. It’s slow going, but it’s going, and that’s what matters.

    Mystery of the day; I’ve just had £101 worth of groceries delivered from Sainsbury’s but have no idea how I have paid for them. Ex was late paying CM so I had no money in my bank or credit left on my credit cards. None of my accounts have a debit pending. It’s a mystery!

    Still no payment taken, and no receipt. Very odd!
