    Just made an overpayment of £245.75 for May - yay me! Is so addictive doing this.

    Extra good news is I've just submitted my last essay (training to be a teacher) and passed the one I got back today. All this AND the sun is shining. Isn't life ace!!

    After my great idea of overpaying on the 1st of the month, I have decided this month to split the payment £50 now and £50 at the end of May.

    The £100 on the 1st of April made it touch and go for the last week before payday
