Crumbs is it the end of the month already, this year is flying by!! Bet your money shuffle flew by as well!

gallygirl

All shuffled out - doesn't take long .

30 days to payday :eek:

41 sleeps till holiday

A few weeks ago I opened a new Reg Saver with NWide @2.5%. But it's irregular :rotfl:. The only restriction is you can only pay £1250 in a month till July, then the new 15k total comes in so you can fill it. No requirement to make a payment every month and can make as many as you like (oh, they may regret that :rotfl:).So my little savings pot is going in there :T. I did have to message them to get the details to pay in but first transfer made and received :j. So, to steal a phrase from Ed, my Freedom Fund is sitting at £73.77. I'll be out of here in no time .

Chuffing freezing here. Well, outside anyway as heating is on inside . A few hours in the garden is looking v unlikely . To Do list to follow.
