    :jDenise, well done, but slow down a little or you'll make the rest of us look bad :p

    :hello:a wave back for Penny, sure you'll have everything sorted in no time

    Pigpen, ok, will leave it with you but if you need me to do next weeks just let me know

    Crufts being on is good news for me as it means my friend comes back up for the weekend from London :D Downside is I need to get lots of studying done before then to make time to see her.

    Speaking of study, was up until 2am ish (that was the last time I looked at the clock) then cracking on as soon as I have done banking etc. Good news is only £150 left to pay between 2 of DPs debts, I doubt he'll be DF completely soon but it's getting better, hgh interest ones disappearing. I've paid off £1300 from those 2 in the last 2 months, saving on groceries being one of the biggest helps. Who would think I used to spend over £800 a month on shopping (groceries,cleaning, pet stuffs etc) :eek:

    Right, must crack on, need to get this assignment posted TODAY! Have a good day everyone :D
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
    Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb

    Woot! that's great lil_me on the debts AND finishing the assignment :T

    I've got a bit of money shuffling to do this week, got a bit out of control the last couple of weeks so need to reign myself back in again, at least I recognise it now and do something about it, at one time I wouldn't have given a hoot but I like having savings and an emergency fund lol
