Money

For the first time since me and Becky got the house, I feel skint.

Its taken far longer than expected, but I now find my self seeings things that I want that I can't have.. and its really tricky obeying that fact.

I stupidily walked into Virgin at lunchtime today and saw The Delgados - The Complete Peel Sessions for a tenner. There's three reasons why I want that quite badly:

1) The Delgados are a class band, yet I only have one of there albums and I've been planning on getting more of there stuff.. this is ideal as its pretty much a best of.

2) 2 dics of quality music for £9.99..

3) The album got a rare 9/10 on Teletext's Planet Sound. That alone makes me want to buy it, regardless of the act, as PS rarely fail me.

I resisted though. I think what I'm going to do is see how much money I have the day before payday.. if I have any left, get a/some CD(s) with it.

One reason I'm skint this month is because I didn't realise that everytime England play in the world cup, its gonna cost me a few pints down the pub.

My CD wishlist continues to grow. At the moment, off the top of my head it looks a little like this:

Delgados - Complete Peel Sessions
Muse (their new album)
Hope of the States (their new album)
Sons and Daughers (any album of theirs)
Shack
Mugison (a track of theirs I like on a Rough Trade compilation)

I'm sure there are more besides.
