Here, have some tinned brussels to help the brain start working again - I've heard they have *special* propertiesSuccessful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0

Don't tease me by dangling them in front of me then snatching them away again. I tell you, they'll be delicious. Especially when they've been 'laid down' like a fine wine for a few years :rotfl:.
In today's exciting instalment in my life I:
- checked bank and saw a £5 Dd for a mag. Had a hissy fit as was sure I'd cancelled it. Then did bank rec & I was £5 out. They've obviously taken the £5 & bank are in the process of rejecting it - found my mags spreadsheet (yes, of course I have one) and I had indeed cancelled it.
- to celebrate, took out another £3 sub, which has tracked already
- phoned up & ordered free Good Food mag
- checked quidco account, they haven't made payment, I think as I had just changed bank account last weekStill, it will come next month
- phoned A&L and got them to confirm they were closing my account
- new Smile card reader arrived so transferred some money around
- em, ordered em a few things on M&Co website. Not saying how much but £15 cashback has tracked _pale_. Had email to say has been dispatched already, but will probably arrive when I am on HOLIDAY
- hung out 2 loads of washing
OH's old uni pal coming for Sat night. He is lovely but very full on. Cue mucho G&T drinking, with me trying to get away with only the T :rotfl:. Need to empty all stuff bought for DD's house out of bedroom before they come :eek:. Am trying to decide what to cook that will soak up the alcohol but has no calories.
Only 5 sleeps till HOLIDAY :T:j:T:j:TA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

Ok, quick update before a tidy round and early night
.
Remortgage of mum's house goes through Tues so solicitor has DD's solicitor's details & will send her deposit money :T. Looking good for completion last weekend in Sept :j
Had OH's friend & wife to stay last night, had v good time but mucho drinking. I was the soberest
. Had bought a lot of wine in but they brought some and we also spent afternoon in pub so at the rate we are drinking that will last a month :j
Have got over £210 to pay off new BTL mortgage, plus I asked for more than needed just in case - will be able to pay an extra 2k off the 1st month :j
Have a slow cooker full of HM soup cooling down :j
Have been sorting out stuff to take to apartment - jar of coffee (don't like the ones I've tried out there), batteries, new Sky remote, zester, Beechams Powders. Plus loads of mags to read and a couple of books. Hmmm, doesn't leave much of the 10k hand baggage allowance for clothes (we only take hand luggage). 48 hours from now will be sitting on terrace :j
Only 2 more sleeps & the first one is coming right up :rotfl:A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0
