Holidays I hear you say... what might one of those be?
Getting jealous of anyone who can even think about a break - my workload has just rocketed!
Nice to see you are getting on. Good luck with the decluttering. Mine is going very badly, although have had a successful ebay round. I think I have hit my £50 target.

I did a bad thing
I cancelled my loan Standing Order for £160.15 - its due out by the 15th August as its last payment - so I cancelled the DD and am endeavouring to hit it hard this month with a few pounds here and there until it is no more.
Man that felt good - my DD's are now down to £432 (excluding my rent)

Grass ID course tomorrow all day for work - sounds exciting huh?? I know grasses but I do struggle with them as I don't use the skills regularily enough

Well done on hairy loan.Good when one goes. Enjoy Harry Potter.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
have you told them you've cancelled the SO /DD? if it's the latter and they try and take it you'll get charged for it failing. i ran foul of that once but did manage to argue my way out of the charges on that occassion.
have fun in the grass,
