Wed 161220 Going to collect my bike from Brixton Halfords...

11:02 PM BIKE COLLECTION FROM BRIXTON HALFORDS

Last week, Saturday, Brixton Halfords told me my bike is fixed...and, so, it is now ready to go and collect.

They also mentioned the charge to pick it up is £77.00 (approximately). 

This means, I'm going to have to withdraw some money from out of my bank a/c.; and, then, afterwards go and pay to collect the bike.

I would have gone and collected the bike, immediately, straight away on Saturday...if I thought I could afford to do that...; but, the truth is, I don't have that sort of money to spare; the money I do have left is meant to be used to pay for other things...

- The house has got, at least, 4 serious leaks going on in the roofing. This means, I must hire roofers to put up scaffolding...and, fix those leaks; which, I'm sure, is going to cost a fortune...possibly, £100's/if not £1000's...?!

- My mum and aunt's grave stone still have to be paid for...that's another £1,000.00 cost.

- I need to pay to do courses which involve serious online learning...an offer I saw today at Eduonix...lifetime courses access...was for £550.00. (I want to become a 'professional' programmer.)

- I desperately want to get an iPad Pro/with pencil...cost: £1500.00. (I want to become a 'professional artist'.)

- Etc.

Too, I got to think about having enough money left to pay all of the other regular incoming bills...

  • - TV
  • - Internet
  • - Phone
  • - Gas
  • - Electric
  • - Water Rate
  • - Council Tax
  • - Credit card bills
  • - Etc.

For these reasons...due to lack of having sufficient funds...I'm, sometimes, tempted to gamble -(which is a total illusion/as most often I lose)-; or else, I just try my best to spend money very 'slowly', indeed.
