Today I will:
-Batch cook my vegetables in to curries, pies and soups
-use some over date cream to make scones (saw this on OS board, hope it works!)
-do my housework with Star-drops & vinegar
-have yet another day without booze, which I'm getting used to
-and a NSD - I'll try but I do have to go to the bottle bank so I will have to go out
Have fun everybody0 -
Oh my god I'm gutted just got an e-mail from uni to say that my library book is overdue from 5pm on Thursday - an initial fine of £2 and every hour is £1 on top of that... so I currently owe them over £40...I'm going to have to pay £6 to get to uni today just to return the bloody stupid thing which wasn't even useful in the first place. If I don't take it back til Monday then it will be nearly a hundred pound I cant believe how ridiculous their policy is!!!

£1 an hour?! That's disgraseful!!! Can you phone them up and renew? That's what I did the other day and then it stops the fine. Explain you can't travel in because of erm something, make it upThey might be able to take the payment over the phone.
I've make a complaint, also why didn't they email you earlier?Previous debt: £14K :embarasse Debt free: Sept '03MFW#42 Mortgage OP savings £4271.18/£12000 2019

Seeing as today I spent £109 on the credit card treating myself I need to do lots of dfw things today to make up for it...
* Just tried to call Experian to cancel my £5.99 a month membership, but they are closed.
* List some more books, dvds & cd's on Amazon
I'm off out for a meal tonight with the OH and both going to pay half each for a change. Normally he pays as he's such a nice bf and understands I'm a student at uni so bit poor - but knows once I graduate I will treat him for once!! Tonight I just felt like being nice so happy to pay for myself - so I must make sure I don't order wine & the most expensive thing on the menu tonight, thats real DFW style :-)0
