?

A very long time ago, at the beginning of the week, I was given some money for my birthday.

On Monday, I spent a quarter of the money on clothes.

On Tuesday, I spent one third of the remaining money on music.

On Wednesday, I spent half of the remaining money on food.

Finally, on Thursday, I spent the last £1.25 on a book.

How much birthday money did I receive?
