Anyone else glad to be going back to work for a rest :rotfl:?

By next Monday when I actually go back to work, then I'll probably be feeling like that, yes.

Well for the first time in living memory (and possibly ever!) we had great weather over a BH with bad either side instead of the usual other way round :T (she says, trying to put a positive spin on the miserable morning ).

£1.11 TillyTidy, rolled up to a massive £2 to ISA :j. Should be filled at end of July (need to pay in more than £2 at a time though ).

Up early to make cowboy casserole (aka left over sausages, bacon, tomatoes, beans and potatoes ) for lunch. Now can't get moving and will be later than normal getting in as need diesel - hoping to get £5 Mr M voucher today :T.

Happy Tuesday everyone, only 4 days till the weekend :rotfl:.

How's your twig GG? Mine looks even more twig-like than ever....T&M must be LTAO at everyone who has purchased a sugar almond hibiscus as probably no such thing, however they managed to get rid of a pile of twigs #delboytrotter:cool:

You are an early bird gg. I too get up early so as to be at my desk at 7am but I would rather go without food than cook at that time in the morning.....

I'm looking forward to Friday evening already I could get used to these short weeks.

£39.05 and stupid 15p survey that's not working. Maybe by the end of today .

Approved Food order done - free del till end of today :T. Couscous anyone :rotfl:.

£1.01 TillyTidy (couldn't possibly send a liitle 1p out into the big wild internet all on its own ). ISA will have to wait though, will need to pay money into Spanish bank and pay keyholder so need to up the FlexDirect account instead. Will pay cash in when I'm next over, which will be in ......... 14 sleeps :j:j:j:j:j.

Some mystery shopping money in but this is being saved to pay for the tumble drier (with internal light :smileyhea), needs paying soon, so keeping MS money for that.

Just been looking at spreadsheets (for a change ), there is real progress being made :T. Lots of greens on various sheets (colour changes automatically when debt drops or savings rise into next 1,000 bracket (thanks to Lois ). Hopefully still on course to break 100k overall at end of Aug, and btl1 now projected to be fully offset at end of Jan 14 (dropped a month :T). The bits not dropping quickly are the columns showing mortgage with only normal monthly payments - crikey that would be slow going :eek:.

Happy Friday everyone - come on, one big push to the weekend :j.

Happy Friday to you and Mr GG.
