WOW!!!!!! where do you get the money?! Have you got some kind of get rich quick scheme, please tell me, I do a paperround and I only get £17:00 every two weeks which gets spent on my modal railway, and tickets and no money left for train games.

I just do little jobs here and there plus I am a Bull-Mastiff Handler/Walker!

But as for the tickets I tend to use travel cards much cheaper for my travel (£2.00).

Indeed, when I was in hereford not so long ago, I was hungry and I remembered you recommending mr.chips - stunning! lol

Glad to hear they lived up to the recommendation then :D

My sis is set to move to Hereford in the summer. I'll be sure to pass on this advice to her! :D

I'm a Delice de France man, myself. I also like hash browns, but the Pasty Shop at Bristol TM rarely as them ready to sell (not enough people buy them to justify cooking loads at once...) :( Still, when they are available, four for 99p is pretty neat!

Also forgot to add my RM subscription and my railway mugs (Inter-City ones etc..) and little odds and sods which in 2009 I would say I spent a good £35 on!

I would suggest I easily spend £1000 per month overall on living.

My take home pay is a bit more than that though so I'm at a happy medium at the moment.

Spend at least £200-£300 per month on rail fares alone.
