In the past 2 days I've had 4 pieces of post:
1 mag from 3 for £1 offer from MSE
1 cheque from MS, company found originally by DD on MSE
1 £10 gift card, survey site found on MSE
1 £10 gift token, another survey site found on MSE
Love you Martin :happyhear :money::happyhear
Very impressive!! I too have had post ..but no where near as much fun post :rotfl:Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

What will make it even worse is that it only cost £16.50 brand new off ebay. When I bought my last one I looked at ones you could brown meat etc on stove first but the only one was very dear. I saw this one on Amazon but got it on ebay even cheaper :T. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

So, not much to report on which is why I've been a bit quiet really. Well, there is a lot happening but all behind the scenes at present so will report when it comes to fruition.
Regular saver opened in Mr GG's name but FD have got very confused which has now confused me
. They've taken 2 payments from current account which is correct. Seems to me they have changed my old one I thought was closed to a joint one and credited this month's payment to this. My new account is missing a payment this month. I assume the other payment taken is the one to open Mr GG's account, which obviously I can't see. Waiting on them to get back to me. SORTED, THEIR ERROR, FIXED
£5 reward money in :T.
I seem to have become a furniture and white goods valuer in my spare time as everyone (well 2 people) have asked me how much to charge for/pay for things. Expect to see me starring in my own daytime TV show any time soon :cool:.
Still no npower refund :mad:.
Total of 11lbs lost since start of the year :j.
Tasks for today:
[STRIKE][STRIKE]* phone landlords assoc with query[/STRIKE] emailed them[/STRIKE] SORTED
[STRIKE]* phone company z done but systems down, need to try again
[/STRIKE] SORTED. NOT ENTIRELY TO MY SATISFACTION, BUT SORTED.
[STRIKE]* phone or email company a[/STRIKE] done with good result :T
[STRIKE]* phone company ml done but they haven't called back, need to try again [/STRIKE]SORTED
[STRIKE]* get all outstanding work done for day job :eek: well, let's put it this way, had brekkie at 11.30 and just had 2nd cup of tea of the day _pale_ so you could say I've been busy![/STRIKE] NOT SORTED - DIDN'T SEEM TO MAKE MUCH MORE PROGRESS
Happy Tuesday, the sun is shining

11lbs, that is fab! :T
You've just reminded me I need to chase up energy companies as wellAnd I'm owed a baby Oleg! a penny picker upper. MFW approx 78% to go | FIRE 3 years worth (30% savings rate: now aiming for 40%!) | Normality is a paved road; it's comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow on it | Whatever you're meant to do, do it now. The conditions are always impossible | The only thing you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library0 -
Now late getting money back is one thing, but to be overdue a baby :eek::eek::eek:Pearla*Merle wrote: »
