Yesterday i had around 45 pounds left in my account, today i have 170. I was rather puzzled by this so rang up the bank. I had forgotten that standby allowance was now going to be paid has an expense instead of through normal payroll. This means that i have enough to pay my council tax and next weeks petrol and not go in the red.

Of course it means that i am 125 quid down on my paycheck. But i suppose it's swings and roundabouts.

I will have to be careful again this month, but i know that i can do it.

This weekend i am going to attemp to spend as little money as possible. What i need to do is start shifting all the boxes from my dining room, into more appropriate places.

No CD. yet...
