    Just had the washing macine repaired, as its been out of action since Sunday. Poor friend didn't know what had hit her as she 'voluntered' to help with the washing. DS1 has been clipping this week and lets say his clothes are interesting to wash.

    Weather has been fabulous and planted all my wellies up with Trailing Lobelia. Going to chuck some bean seeds in some large pots and see if they grow.

    DD1 has only got 2 exams left, it seems to have flown by. She helped DS1 and got the job of wrapping the fleeces, hoping she gets a few more days. She's started her jabs ready for Thailand, Gawd that's costing a fortune. She turns 16 on Monday.

    So that will be time for a financial up date........however I felt the urge to do it early..............I'd like to announce that we are debt free!! :j:beer::rotfl::T:j:beer::rotfl::T:j:beer::D:rotfl::o

    My overdraft has been reduced to £100 and currently isn't being used. We have cancelled most of our credit cards and we each have 1.

    I'm going to build the pots back up as they have been raided to achieve this status. I'd like to start a new diary about savings but dpn't really want to leave here.

    Thank you to people who've posted, lurked and read my ramblings.
