Project Budget starts here - clear the debt and save for second childhood

Hi Rupe, even though you are short you've still made great progress with the savings.

Personally, I'd drive to save £££'s but the National Express would be the cheapest option I guess.... Hope all's ok and well done on the running!

Afternoon everyone - have been very quiet recently. Am just going through these expensive months and getting them done. Am on the home stretch of my job now - this week we interview for the person to replace me quite looking forward to it actually.

Today I have no motivation to even move:rotfl:having the working from home equivalent of a duvet day. Am on the sofa waiting for the Budget - its frightening how much I have turned into my parents. I have very clear memories of them anxiously discussing the Budget each year (of course now we seem to have Budget announcements every other week)...

..right - here we go....

:beer: Welcome to the official 'closing down the thread' drink - feel free to have a pint (of whatever you choose;)) on me.:beer:

Thank you to anyone who has stuck with me this long. This seems like a good time to end this - although I may start another when I am in student world! That will be a whole new story - but where we are in our savings may well be where we will stay until the start of my course - although I have agreed to extend my time of reduced hours at my (old) job, so potentially could get up to £6k by end of Aug.

Thanks for your support all - I will no doubt pop my head into your diaries on a regular basis...x

Wishing you all the very best of luck for what lies ahead and look forward to reading any gems you have to offer on the next chapters of your life. Cheers - mine's a pear cider.
