    :D Thanks Froggy, I can't tell you how excited I am about this pay day, it will be my first 'proper' pay since Dec 10 since the tax saga began and my 1st OP of the year too :j

    I'm feeling very enthusiastic at the mo and really want to get back on the straight and narrow!

    Yes ATT, bring on payday! I got an email from £co saying payment is on its way, so that will be a bit more for the Masterplan fund, and on payday I'll be able to sweep what is left in my current account..

    I have had a friend staying with me this weekend.. She lost her husband just before xmas, heart attack whilst working, he was only 60..:(
    So I invited around just to get away from her place, and I could look after her.. We have had a very good time so far, and will make our way to the pub at lunchtime..

    Hope all is well with everybody!

    Cheers
    Froggy :cool:

    Hi FroggyG, that's such a lovely thing to do, as she must be feeling quite low now. It's always so hectic when someone passes away with the arrangements etc, and I always think the shock etc kicks in a few weeks afterwards. As life returns to normal for others, they realise that their life is always going to be different.

    Anyway, your savings pot is looking good. It's great to see it quietly mounting up.

    Enjoy your lunch and roll on payday.

    Good luck Froggy :j
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
