    just got pay for it now !!!

    ah yes, the easy part of the equation!!

    Halifax have given my my new monthly payment......£1314.65 :eek: Slightly more than I expected it to be, but it is correct......thank goodness my council tax came in a bit less than I had allowed for. The two more or less cancel each other out. Still, its a lot of money!!

    So, I am definitely going to focus on getting the mortgage down once the other debt is sorted.

    At least you know how much it is and so can do your budgets and have that control back.You are fantastic with budgets.
  • Thank you for the lovely new diary Hypno. You deserve the very best life and I have no doubt you you will achieve it, and along the way, on this forum and no doubt in other places too, you are always kind to every living thing, and inspire so many people.

    Yes, taxi - once the numbers are there, it is easier to find a way to work with them!

    Have a couple of matched bets to do over the weekend.....the total is slowly creeping up there, and a mystery shop to do tomorrow. I'll try and catch up with surveys etc too.

    I've also decided what we will do for a summer holiday this year. I have enough clubcard vouchers to convert into two annual passes for Alton Towers, Thorpe Park, Chessington etc.......so if I buy a third one, and we go for a week of "theme park [STRIKE]hell[/STRIKE] fun", and stay in travelodges, or something similar, we can pack a whole lot of roller coasters in, which the children love, and it won't cost the earth. I reckon 5 nights accommodation, 2 or 3 tanks of petrol, and a whole lot of picnics and we can have a really good week away. The ticket that I would have to buy is £120, but as it will last us all year we might get a couple of additional days out over the next 12 months too.

    , you are always kind to every living thing,

    I'm not sure the pot plants that have been unlucky enough to be in my house, would have the same opinion :o

    The children will love it......and if they love it, I will be happy enough too. I have 2 weeks off work, so if we do that in the first week, I can collapse on a sunbed in the garden if it is nice in the second week, or collapse on the sofa in the lounge if it is raining.

    Everyone a winner!
