    Nice one :T:T:T (well, two including the water :rotfl:)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Another fight :j:j..
    I am starting a battle against another financial institution to get a redress on loan taken alongside the mortgage on the old house up North.. I anticipate lots of waiting around, frustration and strongly worded letter and involvement from the Financial Ombudsman.. Yeah :j:j

    My complaint has been acknowledged.. The waiting game goes on...:think:

    Hello all

    Monday over.. Bring it on! :j

    DIY success.. New curtain pole is up and curtain too.. This was for thermal curtain behind the front door to try and keep more of the heat inside the place..

    A couple more bits of DYI to get through over the next few days..

    No news on the finances, it will be quiet until next pay day, unless somebody fancies filling up my deposit fund? :D

    Hi Froggy, well done you on getting the DIY out of the way :j

    Your lilypad fund is looking good, you are making real progress

    So... saying as everyone else is not asking the question I will break ranks - what news of your 'lady friend' :p You slipped that in a few posts ago and I was expecting some of the others (aka Gally ;)) might have been [STRIKE]interrogating[/STRIKE] asking you some questions but no, that does not seem to be the case so do tell :D

    Glad to hear you're enjoying yourself ;)

    Hope you and your loved ones are OK, Froggy. That statement is very true, but it is not something that is usually voiced when all is well.

    Morning all

    £1.46 ([EMAIL="am@zon"]am@zon[/EMAIL] sale) added to the pot.. At this rate, I should be looking for a retirement home, not a bachelor pad! :eek:

    Have a great day all!
