    How Linda :confused:

    The chap from Scottish power visited this morning and offered me a deal through them which is quite a lot cheaper than I'm paying now.
    While he was here I checked Martin's tips while he was stood there watching with interest and yes the deal was on there (at the same time I introduced him to MSE & Quidco!)
    I checked that the same deal he is offering was not available on quidco - it is but more expensive.

    I have just noticed that there is a deal with the same company on a different tariff that works out the same as he quoted me but it'd also mean £62 cash back.
    I'm going to phone him to find out what the difference is between the two tariffs.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Numpty, no matter how I'm feeling, your avatar always makes me smile. It's so cute.
    Not an expert, but I try and contribute and I'll always listen. Middle child of middle child parents. I drink way too much coffee.

    Lol, I always look like that first thing in the morning, coz I smoke. Blue (the nice housemate) always, always asks me if I am catching a cold and I always say 'No, just got up.'
