    Hardly average here then, tut!

    I'm band A cos my house is worth 20p. When I was band C it was £1250. We'd need to look at Bands and Prices to get an average view.

    I am really chuffed that I know what it is...normally when you lot talk budgets and figures I keep quiet because I never have a clue!!! I don't even know how much debt we are in :o

    :cool:

    I know how much it a month... roughly... :o It's all in the bank somewhere!

    It is a really really great day out! So much to do and the kids can touch everything which is great for them, no point looking at cool stuff you can't touch. Theres an imax cinema there too and last time DD and OH watched the Lion King in it.
    I've never been up the watch tower thing as its never been working whenever I've been but there is so much else to do you don't really miss it.


    K just delivered his chemically smelly I got jagged yesterday !!!!!! nappy. Lovely, just as well he waited til we were home from Falkirk. After stripping him of everything that was shitcovered he was left wearing a sock. :D

    The tower is broken anyway. Dh is looking forward to the imax. Getting excited now! DS2 is all un-interested when I showed him the website :cool: wee !!!!!!.

    OMFG!!! :eek: Not your fault but what a bl00dy country we live in, hardly fair! :( I'm moving, where are you? :D

    I'm in Ayrshire and we don't pay water either.

    Forget how much mine is, but we have applied for the council tax benefit (need to hand in payslips, will do that tomorrow) Band A so cheaper.

    Ok, Band E, £1815. + water rates currently £165 quarter as although we are careful and have special fittings on showers etc, water rates without the meter are about £800 a year beacause of the coastline apparently.
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p

    You can say !!!!!!. Can I say !!!!!!?

    I don't actually want to say !!!!!! too much, but it's nice to know I can.

    In non-!!!!!! news, I've finished all the tasks I needed to get done this week for work except one I can't do because it relies on someone else providing me with something, so I am sneaking into holiday mode a day early.

    I only say !!!!!! when I can be arsed to say !!!!!!, mostly I don't because I can't be arsed and it gets on my tits :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


    I just snorted with laughter at myself - cue funny look from assistant :o


    Tia - I hate the swanky tesco site ;)

    That means we are paying about £1500 more a sodding year, god we're stoopid! :cool:

    I gave up looking on Tescos and was just typing into the search box, saved seeing things I didn't have on my list! :o

    Scottish Water control the water and waste water charges up here and its all shown on your CT bill.

    Elle - are you here?

    In September I posted my packing list for Weezl (or was it in May when we went to Bluestone?) - is there any chance you can earn your 'Queen of Finding Old Posts' title and repost it for me?

    Pretty please? :A

    Am now :D Is this what you're looking for? ;)

    Our council tax is 9 months of £100 and 1 of £90-something.. that's all I remember. The bill is probably lost in the abyss now.

    Honestly, our living room would pass for the aftermath of a burgulary right now. It's shameful :o:(

    Grouchpants wasn't much better at Boogie Babies but at least it got us out the house :cool: He's still asleep on his car seat now, in the darkest spot of the hallway I could find.. (ETA: Without it being a cupboard! He's not in a cupboard honestly, just tucked round the corner away from the window :))
