Term has ended - thank goodness!
Looks like i'll be staying here this summer which i'm actually quite pleased about as it will mean i will be mortgage free before my secret date of january 10th 2011! I have a fiver's worth of 10p pieces in le cochon to bank next time i'm in town anda big travel expense claim expected at the end of the month, plus my current account shouldn't go down to zero before then so whatever is left over will go in.
All i plan to do for a few days now is to be lazy - which shouldn't cost anything!
Have fun!

wasn't quite an impulse - was intending to do it within the next few months, but i had an offer from renault and i wanted to do it before the VAT increase in january.
should still be mf by january at the very latest and maybe as soon as september.
glad i'm not the only one who's fallen off the wagon!!!
