On the savings front, i have decided that when i need to pay my deposit and solictors fees, i am going to close my nationwide savings account down. But i don't know where i am going to go to yet, i think i need to look around some more.

I am currently reading "passage" by Connie Willis. I am really enjoying this novel, so very different from TSNOTD and Doomsday Book, and i can see how some people might describe her main characters as simillar, i actually don't mind!
