    yeah.....£2!!! heh heh only joking, hopefully £150 a month minimum
  • Hey guys,
    Amy - sorry about the kittens, but how good does your sig look with the 7 at the front!
    MM - you're well on the way to being a saving champion!

    Hmm, had an interesting day today - got home and argued with the OH about the amount that he drinks, then huge screaming match with flatmate over who should pay extra for the bills when we have a room going for rent. Both resolved now so it's all good!

    Hope everyone else had a better day than me!

    oh dear aussie-doesnt sound like youve had a very good day-glad you got things sorted though. ive got a lot of saving to do to catch up with you!
  • hehe, not really, I'm a little slow off the mark, but at least I'm trying! Would love to get rid of the joint debt to get some joint savings going as well. Looking forward to the end of the month so that I can knock some off the debt as well as seeing how much goes to the saving account!

    I'm just thinking that tomorrow can only be better than today! ... I hope!

    I'm sure tomorrow will be a good day! we are all wishing away the time until payday, i dont think thats gonna change when i'm debtfree as we are going to wish it away so we can add to our savings instead!
  • Tomorrow WILL be a better day - I know it will be!

    I'm going to bed to make the day finish!
