not the kind of expenditures I like...

I had this morning off work. By the time I'd arrived at the office I'd managed to spend a bit more than EUR 500. Nope, no designer handbag. First, I had my boiler serviced, which thanks to the fact that some parts needed to be replaced amounted to a hefty EUR 310. Then I applied for a new passport and photo ID which cost me a further EUR 125.

To get over the shock I had to spend another EUR 75 at a shop selling precious stones (for new DIY jewellery procects) and MANGO.

Money. Seriously overrated.
