Where the money went in 2008

[fivemack]

As in the last three of these, "FOREX" is cash taken out and spent while abroad (I lump it all together since I couldn't face reconciling cash receipts in five currencies) and "SLC" is the last payments on the student loan. Clothes are "LIVE", cameras are "ENT"ertainment, for this is how my brain views such things; "ACCOM" covers rent, electricity, gas, insurance, the phone line, and, by mission creep, the initial and contract payments for mobilephones.

I'm using 'TRAVEL' basically for tickets; if I go somewhere and stay in a hotel, the hotel counts as ENT. Not sure how sensible this is, because it means there isn't a number in the summary which is "what I spent by going on holiday and wouldn't have if I hadn't", and that's perhaps a more useful number to know.
