She's on about £24,000. She now lives in Manchester which she claims is horrendously more expensive than Sheffield where she used to live
She and 2 friends split £650 rent a month and all bills 3 ways between them. She has my old car which I sold to her for half it's value as it was her.
The prob is I'm beginning to find her constant "I'm skint, I can't afford it" moaning a bit irritating as well as her scroungy ways. I've worked out she has at least £800 pounds disposable cash a month, i consider that quite a lot!!!
re scroungy ways when she's out she orders tap water for herself but accepts drinks off others. She tries to scab lifts all the time rather than driving/bus because it saves her money. Everytime she's round her she goes straight to the fridge and helps herself. Usually i wouldn't mind but I'm beginning to see a bit of a theme. the most irritating is one belling me/dh/friends and expecting us to call HER back with our "free" minutes so she doesn't have to spend money on phone vouchers.
The most annoying recently was when she had a "bring your own bottle and a bowl" night recently when me and a few of her friends took salads etc. round and some wine, she got pissed ate the food (didn't make any herself) and then cling filmed it all up to use for the next weeks food! I'd made these really lovely puff pastry feta and cherry tomato tartlets (if i say so myself) and she immediately snaffled them to eat for work lunches!
Sorry sould have posted in AIBU, am I being uncharitable by being annoyed with this behaviour? Or is my irritation a teensy bit justified?
