    Morning all! :D

    Time for a quick figure update.. N-ram has cashed my OP cheque, and therefore amended our figures accordingly.. The unsecured loan is taking a trashing, and thats the way I like it!!;)

    The loan should disappear in September :D

    Things are a bit better at home, the morale is on the up, results are still due on Thursday.. OH is busy at work so she has no time to think about it.. She is off to acupuncture tonight so she should come back nice & relaxed...

    A few phone calls received regarding new jobs as well, so its moving slowly in the right direction..

    Hope everybody is well? T-10 before our Scottish Adventure!!

    Cheers

    Think you might need to bring your own good weather with you! It's not good at the moment but will, hopefully, pick up before you get north of the border. Mind you, Skye is a long way away from me so they could be having a heatwave at the moment.:cool:

    Lunga kija Froggy,

    outstanding. That unsecured bit is annoying me now as much as you so the sooner you punt it and we can start worrying about that meddlesome main part the better.

    All these good wishes and positive thoughts must be working. Hope the improved and relaxed mood bear fruit come Thursday. Tell these dastardly agencies to move themselves or they'll have me to deal with when I'm on my next jaunt down to that England.

    Cheers,

    Billy

    I am counting the days till we get rid of that loan, its clearly getting in the way now! :mad: All going to plan on the OP side. I paid off the TeSco cc this afternoon (monthly spend fully paid off every month), and I have managed to sweep £110 from the joint account that has been moved straight to the OP pot for next month. The aim for July's OP is £1500 and I am seriously hoping to achieve it..

    Positives thoughts & good wishes are very gratefuly received.. It feels really good to know people care :A OH is well, she enjoyed the acupuncture, and is now back home, chilling in the lounge after scoffing my thai red curry, then Magnum ice cream..

    Agency has not got back to me this afternoon, so they will get a stern talking to in the morning, with added bonus of the threat of Billy's visit.. That should do the trick..

    One more day at work, then I am off Thursday and might be back in the office on Friday depending on circumstances..

    Have a great evening

    Cheers

    Hi froggy, just to let you know i have been thinking about you and your OH and hoping so much that it works for you. My SIL never made it as far as this, her monthly cycle started after about 10 days after the embryo transfer so hopefully it is a good sign for you both that your wife has come this far.
    Goodluck on the job front too...i can imagine how stressful it must be to work somewhere that you are not happy in, hopefully something is just around the corner for you.
    Take care
