    Hi everyone,

    Lots of excellent saving going on. Hope you all had a good day today.

    Poor you Sparky. Since you already have the hangover why not indulge yourself?!:beer:

    Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far! :)

    If you have the account verified then you just need to tell it to send the money to the account you verified it against, if not you'll need to verfiy the account first (that can take a week or so) then initiate the transfer - I've found it tends to take up to a week to show in my bank account, but in true MSE stylee you really should wait until it reaches £50 otherwise you pay a fee (25p I think) for them to do the transaction. I shifted £75 today and will report back when it clears in to my account.

    Follow the instructions on the site makes it really nice and simple if not as quick as it could be :mad:

    Nothing added to my bottle today coz my MS mojo has deserted me so I spent the day at home studying instead, leaving me with four rearranged shops to do tomorrow before work!

    Morning everyone,

    Just 14p into potty yesterday and today will be a NSD because its my day off and I'm not going out, so its good in one respect but not in another. !:confused:

    Nothing exciting happening today, just the usual housework etc, but I'm going to fish my knitting stuff out and busy myself with that. At least I can have a relaxing afternoon, watching telly and knitting. God, I'm getting OLD.!!:eek:

    Keep saving guys.:T
