Been having loads of internet problems but it's slightly better since I rang up threatening to leave!! Funny that. They told me that the routers are only designed to last 18 months and as I have had mine 6 years it's probably faulty and I could purchase a new one. I did ask for a free one but they declined!!
Finally caught up on onepoll, I dread to think how far behind the other surveys I have missed. Off to work now - roll on maternity leave!June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0 -
Plan tomorrow is to sort out new internet provider. Only thing that slightly puts me off is that I will have a new email address and therefore a new log in for so many different things. Any ideas how i get round this and change my log in details etc?
Got a few watchers on ebay items which is a relief!June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0 -
Updated sig and am pleased with the changes, this months £350 OP has knocked another month off my MF date! Unfortunately current account not looking very healthy and payday is 19 days away however we have food and petrol and money in that account.
Might try and do some surveys while internet is behaving!
Have bids on one of my ebay items too.June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0 -
well done for ebay bids and knocking another month off. Re your email address I would create a hotmail or import all your contacts from existing supplier to new one when you get it.0

Thanks yukkibear, internet not working too bad at the moment.
Wow, what a scorcher it is today and I am off all weekend too! Need to do some money making though as funds are low. DH will do a car boot sale next weekend so a great opportunity to declutter!June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0 -
I also use hotmail, but it is a pain to have to change your email on everything though. I can't believe you didn't get a free router!! Enjoy the weekend!15/5/12 Paid off Mortgage 1 (£220k) Bought Dream House:www: Dec 13 - Mortage 2 -£116,508. 15/7/18 Mortgage Free Again :j

I'm soooo happy I have the weekend off. Makes no difference to us usually as DD young enough to be with me all week and DH works weekends anyway but the sun is shining and DH has only just gone to work and finishes at 5pm so feels like we have had a morning together. Well, he did all the things I can't - fixed trellis, moved DD's garden toys back onto the lawn etc so I have had a tidy up of garden so we can sit out later
Off to our best friends (DD's godparents) to play in a little while, they work mon-fri so don't get to see them with us working weekends. There's no one to visit when you have days off in the week.
Current accounts not looking good considering how many days away payday is but have literally just remembered about my GTM cheque in a different account (I had already sent OP from normal account but hoped if i managed without it it would end up as another OP). However, we need to eat between now and payday!
Have a lovely weekend everyoneJune 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0 -

Thanks Grateful, weather still good here. Is it starting to turn down south?
DD has had a fab day playing on the trampoline, bouncy castle and a trip to the park.
I have just realised how much I have caught the sun, am looking rather red!!!
Another thing to add. £1.52 for a loaf of bread - when did that happen!!! :eek:June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0 -
Bread prices are bonkers. Wheat price has gone sky high, oil costs feed in to that...
It is less hot, but humid and maybe thundery here.Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0
