Sorry to hear that, Brummy Git. Aside from following PAXboy's advice (and I'd suggest pen to paper rather than finger to keyboard), you might contemplate sacrificing your birthday and/or Christmas presents from your good wife to assauge the situation.

Everybody makes mistakes - but life is too short to worry about 200 GBP. Cheer up - you could have ended up like the German chap who wanted to go to Sydney and ended up in Sidney, Montana!
