    Well done ...

    For a 0% deal the best time is once you have a nil balance statement from them.

    Ricardo must be tearing his hair out, and then he looks at my statement and smiles all over again.

    Well done you!

    Any word of the new job?

    What a day handed notice in this morning and then spent the whole day being asked to stay even got offered extra money,but thats not why i have done it and although i said i would think about it over the weekend I dont like going back on my word so 1 week to work and then I have decided to have 1 week at home getting jobs done and the house up together ebay listings on then new job.
    On a plus note got my backpay on my wage slip and my increase :T
    not much but it all helps.
    Tax refund finally arrived today so going to pay that in tomorrow and transfer to Virgin £135.
    With my birthday looming on Sunday and month end getting closer i feel its time to sort out a new challenge for myself :D
