    Yellllllllll :):):)

    Ohhh my!:)

    Do you have an idea of what you're looking for?

    I've basically got 2 lots of spreadsheets - the big one which has the total budgets on and I can record all my individual spends on and a smaller (much simpler one that I managed to create myself :)) to keep track of what's in each budgeting pot.

    I'd be able to tweak the budgeting pot ones a bit but not the formulas much on the big one (apart from changing the worksheets / regular payments etc) as that's beyond my capabilities :o

    If you want to have a look at them, drop me a PM and I can send to you. HTH

  • Thank you Shortie not looking forward to it much as I am horrendously claustrophobic:eek: and have had several failed attempts at MRI scans :o but hoping as it's a CT it'll be a bit better (supposed to be a smaller donut shaped thing rather than a horrid tunnel you disappear into never to reappear from)......

    Will report back later on!

  • Thanks for all the positive vibes folks ... unfortunately I'm home a lot earlier than expected because ...... I got there and the beeping scanner's broken down :mad:

    Not a happy Rising as a total waste of time, not to mention the £10 it costs me in fuel to go there:mad:

    Grrrrrr

    Just having some lunch and hopefully my usual calm self will be restored by then:o

    That's why I'm so annoyed ..... it's apparently been broken since 1st thing so if they'd phoned they would've caught me before I left - I got a lame "oh, we're starting to phone people now" .... honestly, it's the same with everything, they just don't appreciate how difficult it is to get there in the 1st place, not to mention the costs ..... grrrrrr (sorry :o)
