Blog2024 ≫ Mysterious payment coming out of my account

Mysterious £9.99 payment out of my account, to itunes, via paypal. Definitely not me! So I opened a dispute with paypal to get the money back! Then I found out it was actually T1 and he'd bought a game pass on his phone, and it had charged it to me rather than him. Oops.

Busy day of work yesterday, Fridays are not meant to be like that. A security incident at the end of the day too, so my plan to leave early went out the window. I just about avoided actually staying late, and headed down to the Potting Shed at about five and had a lovely time. Just barely managed to use our free energy1, because I was in meetings. Did find time at lunch to go to Tesco, got some pizzas in for our tea tonight, as Clare is off to a quiz with old National Trust friends.

Watched some of Renegade Nell on TV when I got in. Highwaymen are the new pirates it seems.

Up for parkrun, and I meant to go slow, started slow but picked up the pace as I was going.

We're off to some Star Wars thing in Hawkinge today, a cross between a village fete and Comic Con I think.

In less mysterious payments, had to pay the holiday deposit today. It was on the credit card and the bill just came in. I had the money to cover it, thought I was doing suspiciously well this month. It is still three weeks to pay day, but next pay day will be a good one. I hope it includes a bonus / profit share, but even if it doesn't it will include my on call money. The on-call money will cover the deposit for the holiday at least, I really need a bonus to cover the rest of it though it's not been mentioned yet...

Sunny and a fresh breeze, 11 - 17℃.
