One of 24 billion

Tuesday 26th August, 2008 - £7,977.79 in debt…

 Whoop whoop! My debt’s under the £8k mark for the first time in years!

This is because this month’s credit card bills have started coming in and confirming how much I’ve paid off after interest.  I started regularly opening my bills when I started this blog, but this is the first time I’ve seen one lying by the door and actually leapt for it like a cat on a bowl of Felix after a fortnight of Asda own-brand meaty chunks.

In other news, I’ve received my welcome pack from AQA (see this post for more info) and downloaded their question-answering software. I’m currently ploughing through all the bumpf about how to do the job, and it looks like it might be the most interesting job I’ve ever had. Did you know, for instance, that there are 24 billion chickens in the world? If that’s not worth knowing, I don’t know what is.
