    If we added 30k to the mortgage and kept payments similar to what we pay out now we would be mortgage free June 2016 which is fantastic but something doesnt feel right about it.
    While running round the house i have realised although i am reducing the overpayment this month it will still leave us on a tightish budget so i am allowing another £200 and if we dont spend it great it can go to the cards I will put it in the savings account out of the way.
    House is coming along nicely waiting for shopping need some diet lemonade so I sample the sloe vodka just to see how its coming along you understand......

    Well after a disaster last night I have now had to order from Asda and wont be delivered until sunday PM could be an interesting roast this week. I have had to pay on my cc and will transfer the money as soon as Tesco refund the money. Tonights dinner will be whatever we can throw together from the freezer could be interesting.
    Been busy this morning I have completed all the papers for a charges refund and PPI claim from FSO if it pays out I dont expect it to be more than £150 at the most.
    I have one more charges claim to do but I need to complete the forms from the start so I must get on with that later today.
    Christmas cards and christmas food shopping list to be completed this afternoon its only 35 days away!!!
    Ebay is a disaster 50 items listed a few watchers but no bids oh well i guess it really is junk

    Good news on the bid, £4.99 is better in your pocket than theirs :)
