Hey!!
How is everyone today?
I have had a funny old day, still trying to set up my new bank account and set up DD and SO etc. proving fiddly and annoying. Good news today was Abbey agreed to change my mortgage from repayment to int only from this months payment!! (not from Aug as orginally planned). This means we can balance the books for the first time in ages. We were considering a DMP, but have made huge changes to our outgoings to try and avoid it. The big challenge now is that we have moved our bank account over leaving behind a big OD, that I can only afford to pay £70 per month to, to try and reduce it. Haven't heard from the bank yet... don't think they will like it.
The big challenge for July is to use the new bank account (no OD) stay in credit, whilst living and paying everything. Can we do it???!!!!! Watch this space. When I get a chance I will update my sig with debts.
Anyway, the bad news today was water monthly payment has gone up by £25pm. Aaagghhhh.... Can you switch water suppliers?
Just received a mystery shop for this weekend at TKMAX, only need to spend £5 then return what you buy, brilliant. Get paid £15.
Anyway, tell me all about your days, and if anyone can answer my rambling questions above, feel free.
Love to you all.

hiya Ruby,
I'm a bit tipsy am going out tonight and am looking foward to it. Have just had my hair cut - for free!! Cos my cousin is a trainee hairdresser and wanted a guinea pig and it looks really nice too so am chuffed about that.
My water has just gone up too, I don't think you can change it though, have you got a water meter? maybe that would help?

Hiya
Have a great night out!!! Have a drink or two for me.... I NEED WINE. Roll on tomorrow when I can justify buying a bottle in the groceries.
My niece is training to be a hairdresser so I am hoping to be using her services one day soon too.
Come back tomorrow and tell us all about your night.
HAVE FUN HUNI.

Hi Milliemonster,
You are welcome to our little support club. Well done for having your LBM, mine was about 6 or so weeks ago so you are in good company.
Don't forget to add the support group to your signature.
