heh, it's nothing too serious. I just missed a lot of payments on a lot of older debts and thus ****ed my credit rating pretty badly. On expenditure, I had a few cool times, and had a period where I had to go back and forth overseas which kind of killed my finances. Rent, as you know, is a ****ing nightmare. Bloody Tories and their housing policies.
Plus I'm in a job where the money is OK (£19k per year for 4 days a week, one day at Uni) but very fixed. I never have an opportunity to earn overtime or anything like that.
For reasons I don't really want to go into, I need about £600 within a fortnight. I could just use this £750 (and then pay it back later) but I'd prefer not to, thus the gambling plan. I'm kind of glad it didn't come through though as it's 0-0 in the Dundee game.
