Mr Brooksy I am so envious of you!!!
Im just grateful for my wifes income, and that she is encouraging me to finish the car (she has ulterior motives though... bathroom renovation). We should recieve almost exactly what we need for the Sprintex... CANT WAIT!!

Usually its only a couple of hundred or a bill but I'm getting a decent return this year for a change. Mind you thats because I payed way too much tax...

2/3 will be used to pay the guy at work for my computer. He supplied it to me about a year ago and I still havent paid him for it yet.

The rest will go on a service and to blow on whatever I like.

Sweet talk a mate into letting you sleep on his couch and do it anyway
if I had no debt I'd probably buy a car, just some cheap thrasher. But every year it seems to just go towards bills!!
