    I'm working in the morning (overtime, time and a half, lovely :T ) then catching up with all the housework I neglected over the Christmas holidays :o
    Might pop into town for a spot of shopping on Sunday, but it depends on the weather - it's far too cold for my liking. Brrrrrrrrrrr.

    count me in!

    I'd like to get as much as possible into my savings this year to make a lump sum payment off my loan from my parents. mum has set up an online saver for me in her name (so i dont have access) so i'm sticking all my extra income in my savings acc and then transfering it once a month to her. also set up save the change with my lloyds acc today so if i forget to move money each week, it will at least round up each of my transactions for me. it all helps!
