The good news is though, that I've brought all of my debts down to 20,132! Had two pay rises and earnt an extra 2500 in tutoring after school. Everything I don't need goes on ebay and we're carbooting on sunday to clear the clutz and hopefully make at least 50 pounds!
Food wise - I haven't been shopping since before Christmas and we're onto odd concoction soup now wiht homemade bread - clearing the cupboards - I've baked, hand washed, dried everything outside in the crisp dry winter air and had the heating on for only two hours a day!
