Right, need a to do list with regard to getting ready for thinking about a move.
1. Cancel unused cc's.
2. Make a list of jobs that need doing on the house.
3. Put a price on the things that need doing - so that DH's dad knows what he's signing himself up for.
4. Get more storage unit quotes.
5. Organise a time period for getting the work done.
6. Book storage unit.
7. Put stuff in storage.
8. Book Belle into kennels for a time period when it's not safe for her to be in the house.
9. Sort valuation.
10. Put house on the market!
That's what we are going to do in 10 easy steps. However, some of these need breaking down further...I'm chosing to ignore that for now. Besides which we won't know what our position is until at least Thursday evening anyway due to promotions etc.Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.36 July 25

Sounds like a good plan, Twinklie. I'll look forward to seeing you tick them off in your diary.
What papers are you marking? Is it something you've done before?
Good luck on the promotions. Keep us posted, won't you?Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49

Got to about 67% of the first question before getting blocked for the second time. Bum!! Then upto 62% on the next question...without getting blocked once. Woo hoo!
If I get blocked on the first question again I'll be disqualified from marking it. OOphs! Ah well...hoping to finish question 2 later if I'm up for it. Going out for a meal with some of my old school chums first then home to mark if I'm with it enough before bedtime! Woo me.
Oh and had conformation today that there is DEFO another TLR post up for grabs after half term...the bonus being that it's in my department rather than a whole school thing. So....despite not knowing what it is - I'm going for it. Get everything crossed for me! ha ha.Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.36 July 25

Very much enjoying this two parter. Last night we two saddos watched the CE one with the gas masks "are you my mummyyyy?".
eta are you marking on scoris?Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
e-Marker. I just got blocked from a second question about 6 attempts in! :rotfl:
So that's 2 I'm blocked out of until I speak to my team leader. Oophs! To be fair this new one is the one I'm the least confident about so I figured I'd get blocked pretty quickly. It's a 2 parter all linked though. Soooooooooo I'm going to have to try hard on that one - but I fully expect to get barred from it all together at some point. It's going to take me a few days to get through that one question I think.
There is another on just like it a bit further along and I'm expecting to get stopped from answering that one as well. Doh! It's just little bits of word play that are catching me out. Grrr.
If you get stopped from marking certain questions will they use you again the following year I wonder? I'm not holding out much hope anyway. Ha ha haReduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.36 July 25
