Do I balance transfer all the o/d onto the citi card and get rid of Barclays?

That kind of calculation makes my head spin. Is the balance on the Citi card at the same 5.85% rate? And if you get your OD below £1000, would you still have to pay the £25/month fee? If so - I wouldn't do it, that's exorbitant. You could try posting this question on the credit cards forum too.Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620

Yes the rate is the same. the fee would still apply. I am still undecided what to do, I know that I am not happy about the fee and feel compelled to do something but don't want to jump out of the frying pan into the fire, IYKWIM.

How much interest are you paying on the OD at the moment? Do you have to move it?Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620

Its roughly between £11-£15 per month and we also have a fee for this account which I am ashamed to say I hadn't noticed before of £14 pm. I don't suppose I do have to move it but now I have realised how much its costing its niggling me!

Have applied online for the A+L account going through Quidco. So that has set the ball rolling to move the o/d from Barclays and just make that a non-paying bank account, probably for food shopping.
Today I took the horse rug back and got my money back. That is good, however my horse is still short of a rug. I have seen one on a website so I will do a bit more research and get one over the weekend. The vet has been today, unfortunately he didn't have time to do his tooth and is coming back on Friday, I hope this doesn't mean 2 call out charges. Have a problem with mine with 1 of his injections which I need to sort out tomorrow.
Asda is delivering tomorrow so we will be able to eat and have toilet roll!! Always useful I find! I am definitely going for my x-ray tomorrow.

We were down to our last loo roll too today and THAT was one we had "acquired" from work
We have 3 loos, so it was a bit like "guess which one has the loo roll in"........not always much fun!

Children have gone to school cross legged and I am eyeballing the kitchen towel!!! Roll on 11.00, well it could also be 1 o clock! Sausage and apple pie for tea tonight as long as I remember to get some apples and I have got a couple of lemons need using up so I feel a saucy lemon pudding coming on.
Taxi you posted late/early depending how you look at it, is everything ok?

Had the trotters x-rayed, got to wait a week for the results so I will keep on hobbling. Got a few bits and bobs for that time of year.
