May money challenge

[SlimmingKitchen]

I'm ok thank you just a little shaken up as I've never had a car accident before. I've just rang NHS to get advice though as my neck/spine and collarbone feels a little tender but just think its whiplash, been having pain killers to help though xx

try and rest up as much as possible and get hubby to take care of you. Hope it is just whiplash and not something worse (although that's bad enough!)

Oh wow I wish I saw this thread at the start of the month!! I've done pretty good this month to b fair I got underpaid £300 last month so only had £900 to last th month...I've kept up with my bills, paid my road tax for my van (£115!!!) two months rent as I'm in arrears...I have nothing now though, the car has 10er in it and the van is nearly empty. When the car runs out of fuel, I'll have to walk to work. I also had two trips to Europe, one was for a festival I just didn't spend much compared to usual took my own booze and food. The other was a paid job but I would have spent s lot more in Barcelona but I just didn't have any so had a quiet one doing free stuff and eating/drinking in local bars my CC is maxed out though BUT I think I've done we'll...am drawing up a budget for June and its looking like plain sailing compared to may will even save some for holiday in winter

I've just started my new job and they do agent discount on holidays so we are thinking of going to Dubai. Was looking at Nov 2013 but yesterday I had a car crash so may have to go later now depending on insurance and the other cars damage

oh no go to doctors either way so it's on record, if it wasn't your fault then you can get compensation/physio/treatment but it must be logged. I was in an ccidnt a few years back that wasn't my fault I ended up in hospital was really severe whiplash. It didn't feel too bad a the time but it got worse and I'm glad I went . I had a years physio until I felt it was as good it was going to get then a whopping payment off the idiot that crashed into us. You should look after your neck,, even some sleeping tablets/cream/painkillers will help you heal a lo quicker

Thanks Hun. Unfortunately the accident will be classed as my fault as I drove into the back if her. She basically slammed the brakes on at the amber light and it was too late for me to stop.
She got back to me today saying the quote for the damage at the garage was estimated at 2-3k so we've had to go through my car insurance.
My poor hubby was on the phone for hours today trying to sort it out xxx

Hope that you manage to sort it out. Hate idiots like that, learn to bloody drive! We've had a few near misses with people who are oblivious or on their phone, shouting at their kids etc.

make sure you rest up and take care of yourself chick xx

 

[Mandlegrot]

Oh no! The rule that its always the person behinds fault is right most of the time, but not always. Am sure you wouldn't have been tailgating!! OH went into the back of a woman who slammed her brakes in the ice then crashed into the barrier, OH tapped his but slid so slow into her.her fault really as OH had nowhere to go and we were well back, but he had to pay out hope you feel better soon hon x

Should get my party slip today telling how little money I have to live off this month !!!
Is this thread keeping going or is there going to be a June money challenge too ??

 

[Lucylu79]

Id like to do a June one as I have kept all my food receipts to see how I can cut back.

Who else is up for it?

 

[Mandlegrot]

I'm game - I could do with some extra support to be good and budget hard next month, I want to get saving decent amounts of money again

 

[sparty]

I'm in too - will be easier than may as I was away for some of it!
