These Posts May Not Always Have Titles in the Future. Naming Them Can be Tedious.

Today has mostly been spend fretting about money, as I really thought about how much I am going to need whilst away in some detail. Not a terrible lot I can be doing about that now anyway, except win the lottery. And as a colleague kindly pointed out to me the other day, one really needs to buy a ticket to be in with any chance of winning, however slim.

This did prompt me to check the state of my bank account today though, which I do shamefully infrequently. When I looked at my Visa to check if a recent payment had gone through, I noticed a debit of £4.99 had come out which was marked 'microsoft'. Eh? After some more sleuthing and chatting to fairly unhelpful call centre staff, all I managed to discover was that these payments have been coming out for quite some time without me noticing, with the odd extra one for good measure. I have absolutely no clue what they might be, but would have added up to a nice going away bonus if they hadn't disappeared... Going to have to go in to the branch to sort this one.

Other things of note:

• Trypophobia. I believe I may be trypophobic. More on this later...
• Spam telling me 'Your sister is in danger'. Think I'd rather have 'Wish you had lager breasts?' or 'a hot jackhammer rocked the hell out of minnie'
• '#fun fun fun 'til her Daddy takes the Clio away#'
• Potluck wedding
