    I have until close of business today to fund my Coventry Poppy Bond but still no sign of my second e-mail, never mind the money! I certainly won't be sending anyone boxes of chocolate when I'm eventually reunited with my cash.

    TBH I have given up any hope of reinvesting my Icesave cash at a decent rate now, I have stopped looking for accounts because it only depresses me to see them disappear before my eyes. :)

    This Icesave thing has been a double whammy for many of us when compounded with the 1 1/2% rate cut.:o

    No mortgage, but due to circumstances beyond my control the only income I get is on savings interest so I have to get decent Fixed rates to live on, so bank rate cuts are bad news for me. My main concern is that by the time I get my money back there will not be any decent rates to be had. :)
  • It's a bit early for the daily lottery isn't it.

    My Orange Email box says "you have no messages" (except for 332 freecycle ones.) Maybe we could put Iceland up on freecycle - I know it was tried on ebay - but that means paying for it - and boy are we paying for it.

    Anyway plenty of work to keep me occupied and DD Psychology essay to proof read titled - "Are people who are diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder mentally ill "

    Not sure after 1st read if the answer is yes or no - but she will soon have a real life case study to discuss!!!!
