    Morning all.

    Money from littlewoods scratchie is in my bank account, so I've reached the s.loan basic total now of £1617, need to £17 to transfer it to my Finnish bank a/c (yes, it's that expensive when you transfer more than 2K!). And £9.01 to the extra s.loan pot.

    I forgot to list on ebay at the weekend, well, Sunday evening would've been the only time I could, but got late back from the matches and just forgot about it, so will try to put my stuff on tomorrow night and just list them as BIN.

  • Morning Tirlittan,

    All quiet here money wise. Am waiting for OH's part-time money to be paid in but have a funny feeling he won't get that til after Xmas. It is his own fault for leaving it so late. I sometimes wish he was more proactive :mad:

    How is the car fixing going?

    Hi CMD.

    Was just gonna check with my friend when the car will be fixed and when can I collect it. My dad's coming over next Wednesday, so would be useful if I had it by then. It'll only cost me £350ish, and don't think I have to pay it before end of Dec/maybe Jan.

    That's bit annoying, but at least you'll get the money, and if you can survive XMas without it, that would be good too.

    Yeah, we can survive. It's all going into baby savings and paying off credit cards anyway. It't getting so frustrating paying so much money off debt year after year. I must be about 7 years in debt now.

    It will be nice to be able to save instead of spend when all the debt is gone.

    That's great that you don't have to pay for your car straight away.

    I probably will though, most of it anyway. Still need to wait to get the £125 back from tax disc and I'll only be able to buy one for 6 months as all the other 'car' money will go towards fixing the car...:( Which obviously is not good news when I have to pay next years insurance in May. I'll manage somehow...

    Hello Ladies

    I have no number munching to report on although I did get £20 in a Xmas card, and a £30 HMV voucher which was nice.

    Am being very lazy whilst staying at my parents house and just hanging out really. Its strange it all seemed to take so long to come around but the past 4 days have just gone really quickly....
