I have been paid lots of money! Well, quite a lot, anyway, although they have not noticed I should be paying student loan things, soI need to get that checked out. Oooooh! I am all happy and bouncy (if a bit tired). I got lots done today. I like my job. I have noticed it makes me feel lots more secure and settled having a job where I know they are not going to boot me out after a few weeks. I like the feeling :)

This weekend I am going to do my Christmas shopping (like most of the rest of the population of Reading, I'm sure). A significant portion of this will happen in Hobbycraft, of course, so it might not be so bad. Part Two of the weekend will involve tidying the house so that it looks good enough to maybe put up some christmas decorations eventually.

I am supposed to play Earthdawn tonight but once again, like the last few weeks, I am wayyyy tired. I suppose I've got to go...

payday is always good :)

re: student loan, if yours is through the same people as mine then it is entirely down to your place of work to sort payments out for you direct with the Inland Revenue - and as a result they are the ones who get told off for not sorting the payment for you, not you directly :) Your new job will no doubt receive notice direct from IR/Student Loan and start taking it from pay in the next few months. It took my employers 5 months to start taking payments from me after they were informed because they were a bit slack, and Student Loans didn't seem to mind :)

You two must be on the newer scheme - for mine it's the SLC who take the money directly, and if you're deferred you're deferred for the whole year, even if you get a great job in June and leave it in December having earned 18K or more. Weird loophole, huh?
