    Paid my wages onto my credit card £50.10 - every little helps. Phoned the council to find out when housing benefit is paid into my account- not till May 5th!!!!Planted some seeds which will mean free food!Ummmmmmmm that's about it. Will chase up my Mum as she owes me £31.60 for some photos I ordered for her! Feel a bit bad about that one cause she always lends me money- but I don't owe her anything now and she's far richer than me! Plus, it's her debt- not mine. Lets face it, I don't need any help in that department! A bit annoyed with her actually. Anyway...

    Are you registered with retaileyes for mystery shopping? They have lots of sandwich assignments for tomorrow on there to save you some coffee and sandwich money! Also do you have a prepaid oyster card? Try and sign up as soon as you get here if not, cos it saves £1.10 on a single bus journey and more on tubes.

    Still on the plus side, he delivered my tesco HL mailshot with extra points vouchers.
