Just come back from taking mom out for lunch to make up for missing church this morning. Contact has been cancelled this afternoon as well these are the parents who reckon they are going to appeal if the courts decide she is to be adopted and they can't even be bothered to turn up for contact.:mad:

Lovely day here so it is time to tame the wilderness outside OH has gone off to buy new shears as ours are missing :mad: since we sacked the gardener the weather has been so mixed with sunshine and showers that the garden has gone mad and as we are going away in just over a week we need to get it under control.
If you don't hear from me later send out the search party please:rotfl::rotfl:

Survived the gardening but only just. Cutting a box hedge at just the wrong height gave me back ache which got steadily worse yesterday but seems OK this morning.
Need to tackle more paperwork today and still have to book car park, airport hotel and car hire for my holiday which starts next Monday.
Have decided that as I will have some positive cashflow when I get back from holiday as I will be paid on Friday (by cheque:mad:) I am going to start match betting it seems the only thing left that I can try that should bring in a decent return (as long as I do it right) and is not taxable which is always a bonus. So holiday reading will be the threads on matched betting. I already have a separate bank account I can use. I think I will use this towards paying off the loan to Mom as otherwise I don't see how I am going to tackle that without upsetting the other goals I have set myself.
So summary of goals
1. Use match betting towards paying off Mom's loan (20K presently)
2. Pay £75K off my mortgage (presently £207K approx) by 12.12.12 in the MFiT -T2 challenge
3. Clear all my CC debts by 12.12.12. (47K approx presently)
4. Be completely debt free including mortgage by 5-10-15 (Just before my 30th Wedding Anniversary and I like the date :rolleyes:)(275K approx presently)
Four steps to be debt free doesn't sound too bad as long as you don't look at what those four steps involve too closely.:eek:

I've never looked into matched betting. I may need you to explain it to me in a simple persons terms if it looks too complicatedOne step at a time0 -

It looks really complicated to me too and I like Maths I could do with someone holding my hand so it would definitely be the blind leading the blind hopefully someone friendly on the threads will help. Heard Tim was helpful but seen a post recently that he is no longer posting - so need to find someone else might ask Hypno she has done some I know.

I did win £17.59 on bingo today
