This month.
Direct debits and standing orders went out of my account on time, my wages have not gone in on time.
Sod's law says that this has to happen on the one month of the year when I've had a lot of outgoings and really needed this month's wages.
I feel like Monty must feel all the time. No wonder he's such a grumpy bastard.

Alt: Old every time. New houses are shit, tiny and box-like. I don't want to be able to reach the ceiling with my feet flat on the floor and I would like some storage space. New houses are also crammed on top of one another, so you have zero privacy in your tiny garden.
