Day 27 Camaraderie

Being skint and broke in January is good fun given that all your mates seem to be in the same position. Last night we all opted to stay in and watch Sky movie's tribute to Heath Ledger.

It was Brokeback Mountain and a poignant time was had by all - although quite childishly, some of us had to look away or resort to giggles at the sex scenes. My flatmates boyfriend particularly struggled with it all, though he did think the film was an epic - like us all.

So the antidote to it all was a Sky Plus offering of Ross Kemp in Afghanistan. I don't think we were meant to laugh at it. It was really interesting to learn about the soldiers but Ross Kemp with his Taliban scarf had us in fits. See, being a debt ridden girl isn't all dullness.

Will my friends be as supportive in February?
