[STRIKE]Have tried to reconcile 2nd ccard and hopelessly confused myself
. Had bought a lot of clothes, most of which went back, refunds on there this month, items paid for last month. Need to credit my savings account with £200 but can't work out how to do it and actually I think most of that £200 has already been 'refunded' as CC DD was for a lot less than the bill and they knock off credits from what they take. Which means I really need to transfer the £200 from my current account to savings, which should probably have been done a few days ago, meaning instead of being £100 in credit I would have been £100 overdrawn. And because I've OP'd the amount I was in credit (and obviously can't take it back, even though it's only in a savings account 
) I'm not projected to have a £200 surplus anyway........
Comprende? If so, please explain to me :rotfl:. [/STRIKE]
I have overspent.
Is that better FS
?
I seem to have lost £43,000 :eek:.
Today's transactions have taken me from owing Mr GG 44.2k to owing him 42.9k, missing out 43 altogether :rotfl:.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

I don't understand either, so I'm off to make another cup of tea (from the hot tap gadget I now have)
I think the answer is but not sure how you have paid back £1000 without knowing but :T Mortgage Aug 12 £165K, Aug 19 £0

I did know it, it;s just that as I paid £1,300 I skipped straight from 44k to 42k, thus missing a colour-in 43k cell opportunity :rotfl:I don't understand either, so I'm off to make another cup of tea (from the hot tap gadget I now have)

Someone velcroed me to the sofa yesterday :eek:, though did have a long walk with Mr GG in the sunshine last night. Then came home and made cheap dinner rather than eat out :money:.
Did manage to finish tidying kitchen cupboard (not large enough to call a pantry, plus it has coats in there instead of jars of home-made chutney etc). Bought a cheap shelving thingy for the floor so managed to organise a bit better. I can safely say I probably have enough couscous to last till I move to Spain 
.
Mr GG got some bargainous wine from Mr M the other day :T. It's all gone.
Cheque didn't arrive from edig so still waiting on around £175
.
No pennies to Tilly Tidy.
Need to unvelcro myself from sofa as need to get bill to pay from study. Seem to be stuck again.
DS thinking of moving out :T. Have made a mistake of setting up spreadshseets for living costs and what he'll need to buy so I expect that will all get put on hold again :rotfl:. Will affect pay-off plans one way or another.
Happy Bank Holiday everyone apart from those in Jockoland. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

Did you cost it up for him? Is he someone that needs everything new or is he happy to have things 2nd hand? Why not start a box and throw in cheap utensils etc when you find them. We managed to get a 3 year old 3-piece suit for around £200 when we got our first house so it can be done cheap.DS thinking of moving out :T.

I started a box for them today and they have started getting some bits and pieces. Looking at a few washing machines on ebay.

Oh dear, back to work and the pain not even softened by a Tilly Tidy. Woe is me :rotfl:.
Loads to do at work but need to find time to phone Laura Ashley about a refund on a delivery charge as they keep ignoring my emails :mad:. Not impressed with their home delivery service at all, but got my revenge as I was doing it for a survey :rotfl:.
Happy Tuesday all.
