    Went to the library looking for the millionaire next door but they don't have it and won't get it ... So I'm gonna try charity shops before hitting amazon

    Just thought I would randomly chuck that in there :)

    A tumble drier (with internal light :smileyhea) is indeed better than a telly :D.

    Am very depressed :(. Need to buy a new pressure cooker. Realised if it lasts as long as last one it will see me out :rotfl:. Ex MIL gave me hers, so it's well over 30 years old. New one is £35, if it lasts as long that's about 2p a week :T.

    Natty we were talking about men in shorts and men with sexy grey hair and foreign accents :).

    Am turning into DD :o. Did 3 MS at lunchtime, wrote 1st up while having cup of tea at 3rd but still got 2 to go and am v sleepy :cool:.

    Absolutely! Next time we need to get a new TD I'll definitely look out for one with an internal light :smileyhea. ;)

    Start of a very busy few days :eek:.

    Santander cash back in :T. Net of £2.79 - my DD's are small :beer: and I don't have a mortgage with them, plus wages only went in on 26th, hopefully will be more than 25p interest next month :rotfl:. Rounded up with a TillyTidy and Halifax Reward money, plus some spare in btl account so £73 into ISA. Much prefer paying it into there than FlexDirect - psychological I think as FD is a current account, so doesn't feel like savings, even though it pays 5% :o.

    Overall, net mortgage debt is just over 110k, and debt to Mr GG just over 51k. 110k will drop below 110k tomorrow :T, but no change to Mr GG debt :(.

    Off to do my civic duty and vote, then pick up new pressure cooker and leave DS a note to say he is NOT allowed to use it as a saucepan and cook his meals for the week in it - the burnt residue is what finally killed it off :rotfl:.
