    Evening...you are all chatty today:p

    Well Kai had a whingy morning, but really improved in the afternoon, so we went out as planned. Visited the iCandy stockist and I think I am going to buy that pushchair:o:o I will trawl the net to see if it is cheaper anywhere else but I think iCandy pretty much set the price.

    We then went on a little further to the carvery and were stuffed after coming out of there. We were supposed to stop at a play area with the kids but even they just wanted to go home, I didn't let them have dessert and said I would stop off and buy ice-cream on the way home so that may have had something to do with it;)

    When we got home the PS3 died the yellow light of death so dh nipped out and bought a new one, we had already fixed the other one once before and can't really be bothered doing it again.....have agreed to give it to a mate of dh's and let him have it, if he can be bothered to fix it! Stoopid PS3!

    I see PP had her baby boy yay:j

  • SM, the older you are the more expensive it is, so I personally would go for a 15 / 20 or 25 year policy now as it is much cheaper to set up and you are still in good health

    Looked at Engage Mutual but that's only if you pay a DD into it monthly is it? Would rather pay monthly into another account (it's DH who is looking at this so repeating what he is saying).

    I don't think so. But I set up a DD anyway to get the Boots vouchers and cancelled after the first one :o. The £50 cashback went into their Halifax accounts :cool:.

  • Searching - I would view them as two separate things - I would view that we need life insurance even with a will - the life insurance covers the mortgage and the will says what happens with the flat (and Izzy and everything else)! iyswim....

    I keep meaning to increase our insurance/take out an extra one, so that it doesn't just cover the mortgage, but a bit extra too. I can't imagine how we would manage if something happened to one of us. Not something I want to be thinking about just before bedtime though. lalalalala.

    I'm off to bed now. DH put the box of roses next to me and there aren't many left now... must move myself before they are all gone! Sleep well everyone :)

    Nope. You get extra vouchers if you do DD.
