Morning all

I've spent several hours last night / this morning sorting out my bank accounts; I finally finished the bet basket I was doing and can shift all my money back to its proper places, the end result is that I have found a bit extra for the mortgage pot, and, taking into account the money I'm expecting to be able to pay next month / December from mystery shopping/quidco etc, I now need to find about 350.00 extra by the end of the year to reach my 50K target :j :j I also haven't accounted for the terramundi, it is only about half full so it seems a shame to smash it open if its not full yet. Hopefully some time in 2009 it will be nice and chocka and then it will make a big fat overpayment 

Right, off for a shower and then round to mums for lunch

No, I'm afraid not. I've been too busy with work lately. Give me a couple of weeks and I should be fine.
I've started writing for Yeovil's football programme too so most of my evenings are pretty chocka now, especially in the run up to a Saturday home fixture.:D
I just need to print everything off and go through it methodically until it sinks in. That could take several years, mind you.;)0 -
Does anyone else have problems logging into facebook or is it just me
It lets me in fine during the day (when no-one is around :rolleyes: ) but in the evenings I can't get in; I've tried googling it, typing the address straight in, going from an "ad a friend" link in my inbox, and every time it takes forever and then says server can't be found :mad: :mad: Mortgage Total: £49,992/ £75,000
