£4k is brilliant, well done! It will be great to clear the secured loan as well once you get the house sold :T
I'm good thanks, finances are rubbish still, but plodding along.
I'm expecting my 2nd little jwil in December"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Thank you
This one was planned, we didn't want to wait forever as I'm getting old
I think it took us about 6 months.
Fingers crossed it works naturally for you
Childcare is a killer! We planned this one so that little jwil would be receiving the free hours, otherwise we couldn't afford it."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
That's great
watch this space. Yes free childcare I cant wait, its sad that the ability to have more children in based on affordability when I know people personally who don't work and have 4 kids, we could do with the help when we work ! it would make more sense to offer free childcare from 1 ! xx

I agree, I would love to have seen them give the free hours from a younger age. It's crazy when people are better off not working.

Hi Happy!!!!!
We have missed you:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
So glad to hear all is well you you and your little man.
Well done on the debt paid off in that time too. Ah the relief of free chilcare. You should have the option of have less hours a week but from an earlier age as I think this would be more beneficial to working parents!
Lovely to 'see you'

Ah wow a house deposit
what do you think you want to save ? I have just updated my signature another few hundred paid off by the start of next year the outstanding will be less than 36k, however once the house is sold we will have only loan and credit card so if that's gone before January that's 14k outstanding WOW that feels nice. At the minute im not overpaying we need to get moved first and then once that's all settled down we can overpay till our hearts content
