    Morning all, had a really carp day at work yesterday, spoke my mind and had an altercation (nice word lol) with the boss. Was expecting to get yelled at later (still am) so work is great here. Was sooo tempted to walk out yesterday. Oh the joy of having a mortgage.

    Anyhoow, hope everyone has a good day

    Debt: just my mortgage :D
  • Hi all,

    I've just got up... washed my hair... need to dry it before it turns into a mass of frizz :S

    lilmissmup - it was the LifeInsurance.co.uk. Not sure if it's the same one on Greasypalm? It hasn't tracked though so I guess I need to talk to someone on the phone :S Never mind, think I'll pass.

    Yukki - sorry to hear about your troubles at work -- I hope things improve x

    My onepoll money & £6 from CBK was paid into my bank account today so that's my tuition fees covered for another month :jAlso got both lots of football pools money paid in too & I won a £10 amazon voucher from some site that I signed up to, so that's good.

    Where are you all? :p

    Afternoon everyone, I'm glad you finally got your money mm.

    Hopefully your day will get better Yukki, I'm so cold. I'm getting closer to payout on onepoll, I'd love to reach it before christmas which I think might be achievable. I'd only need about 20p per day and sometimes there are loads. I've paid £28 into my ISA from a few sales I've made, I'm almost at £1800 which is great :).
    Finally bought a home
    Starting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]
    Overpayments since 27.03.19: £52,407.47
  • Well done on your savings Nichelette. There have been quite a few onepoll surveys in the last week, that's how I managed to reach payout, finger crossed there are quite a few up until xmas as then my mum's account might reach payout too.

    I have college tonight... we have 4-weeks to do the exam portfolio that we got last week and I haven't started yet. I hope tonight she doesn't ask to see what we've done so far, or else I'll have to lie and say I left mine at home! :S
