Hi Katie,
There is no great rush, when you get a free slot in your busy schedule. Its the ammonia and nitrIte you have to really worry about.

check ebay for the API testwater kit, you can normally pick a kit up for £20 including postage, they will keep you going for months. I've seen them sold in some shops for £33+ :\

water changes dont hurt in the slightest, just try and match the temperature of the tank and dechlorinate it.
