    Sorry, not sharing holiday with anyone but Mr GG :kisses2:.

    £5 Halifax money paid over and £1.64 in Tilly Tidies. Balance today is £100,060.15 :D, but the important balance is £100,184.39 as that's what it will rise to with interest. So, £184.40 to find.

    Anyone want my bank account details :).

    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Ha ha ha, love you Mr GG :kisses3:.

    So, the bad news is my debt to Mr GG just increased by £185 :(.

    The good news is current balance is now £99,880.79 and won't go back over 100k (by all of 61p :)).

    So, party at mine tomorrow night, formal dress, cocktails at 6pm sharp. Be there or be square :rotfl:.

    PS - Mr GG - if you hand over another £1,600 you'll knock a month off our payoff date. Just saying ;).

    Been up since 5 making cheese and pineapple sticks. Oh, and couscous :rotfl:. Champagne on ice - greent your raspberry liqueur will go lovely with it :T.

    In all the excitement I forgot to account for a £1.62 quidco payment.
