    Evening :)

    Just got in... college was rubbishh tonight! Never mind, I bought myself a can of cider on the way home and am watching some videos on youtube!

    Thanks for the details on that offer, Jen. I might do it... i haven't signed up to either of those yet. Could do with the money too as I'm slowly running out of ideas.

    That's over 15% deposit, Maria. Sounds good enough if your joint salaries add up to enough to get a mortgage?
