    Well at least you have started early!

    I have listed a big fat zero this month and there is only 19 day left in April, that works out at me having to make £10 per day!!

    :j My neighbour has just been round to pay me £50 that she owed me from last year when we had some work done to the garden between the drives.
    Can I add that to my £300 challenge ?
    Even better news first overpayment to Virgin sending DS to the bank with it tomorrow :T:T
    Been busy getting ebay stuff ready to list hoping for 20 have some already on turbo lister ready to go.
    Also set up a spreadsheet to track payments on mortgage we overpay £33 a month as I like round payments and that will knock 7 years off the 20 year term.

    Just found another £10 in my account so sent to Virgin lets hope the policies payout quickly then I can send a bit more.
    Offered to take DH shopping for some new jeans but he said NO maybe the shock of opening his cc statement for the first time in years has changed his mind or has he had his LBM

  • Isn't it great when money turns up unexpectedly? Well done on e-bay and I'm sure Ricardo will be thrilled with the overpayment x
