Things I am grateful for:
New NW account already up and running. With a tiny Tillytidy in it Once offset money arrives it will give fully offset date of 1/2/14 on btl............ and prospect of more to come as will still need another £1,100 to take up to maximum Did 3 ms's last night and got 2 x 4 kitchen rolls and some bargainous meat Have almost meal planned. Well, have a planner set up and a list of all freezer stock. And have planned for today and tomorrow so that's a start
Things I am not so grateful for: Client pulled some work yesterday. Not that massive an amount but could have very big repercussions in a house-of-cards type way Made a silly boo-boo in analysing impact which got sent to all directors 
Stonking headache (as in cocodamol hasn't touched it :eek:). Taken 2 tablets which may send me to sleep Completely lost weight-loss mojo No Tillytidy from main account A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

Cocodamol was during the night. Syndol is the answer - paracetamol, codeine, caffeine and another long thingy that you get in anti-histamines and is a mild sedative. Specially formulated for muscular tension headaches (I don't know how the pain relief knows where to go - it's not written on the tablets
)
M&S now also doing 6% reg saver but I think you need a fee paying account first.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

Love Cocodamol but it makes me feel a bit strange (i.e. stranger than usual)....
Impressed with all of the reg savings that are going on. I tried this but found the stashed cash too tempting, so spent some and then OP'd what was left off the mortgage.
I'm best just to chuck it at the mortgage even though I could make a few extra £'s in interest if I was to some regular saving accounts. Maybe I'll get better at it sooner than later?0 -
The thing to do Lula is spreadsheet it and link to mortgage spreadsheets so it reduces your balance. No way will you spend it then :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
