That's a *lot* of £10ph to claw back.

My advice - stick with Donair

Have you thought about asking your parents to block book 10 hours at a time for you (if they are able to?) then you pay your parents back at a cheaper rate than paying the full price at Donair?

Maybe see you there some time
Whilst it's a saving to pay for 10 at a time, I still can't afford it so it would probably take a fair few months to pay for 10 at the least (and also if I suggested that idea I'd be put out of the family lol ). I don't mind the 145 considering what the club gives me.To be honest it's just the wait to save that much that really does my head in. And yes it would be nice to see you there someday, maybe we could go up together for half hour!
