It’s Been A Good Day
Days Without Alcohol: 49
This morning I received a nice surprise in the mail. I received a letter from Informa that I knew would contain my P45 but when I opened it I also saw that there was a payslip inside that said they have paid me £23.36 that they owed me.
I am pretty sure that this is a mistake on their part, but, like anybody else in my position, I will keep it. That will teach the mutl-billion pound company for being a bunch of complete and uttter twats.
It was a nice start to the day and the day seems to be getting better as I checked my email inbox and received an email informing me that an advertiser would like to pay me $40.00 to write a review for them.
I also found out that an advertiser that I have been chasing since February 20th 2008 has finally agreed to pay me the $20.00 he owes me! Apparently this advertiser had about 50 people waiting to be paid for reviews they had done going back even further than mine!
I had to pop over to see my sister katrina today to give her some money that she is borrowing form my dad. As I was on my way back I saw a couple in their garden putting up patio furniture IN FEBRUARY!
I was remarking to myself how absurd it was buying summer garden furniture in this weather but then I started wondering that maybe they had bought it at a very good deal to use in the summer. It did not seem such a silly notion when I had considered this.

Hey, that’s great. Every blasted penny helps!
Don’t spend all at once.

It certainly does.
Thank you for the ‘well done’. By the time you read this it will be 50 days and I’m going to celebrate by having a couple of beers.
50 was my aim from the beginning but I did not tell anyone in case I fell on my face.
Thanks for dropping by.
