And now Mr GG, who's 80 miles away, has convinced me to get dressed and go to Asda for dieselA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

I was not very impressed. Even more annoyed as they had great offers on yogurt and wine. Plus I had picked up a fresh trout and yummy stir fry veg for dinner. Ended up with a tin of tuna and frozen spinach
. Need to pop out today so will go to Morrisons - IN NEXT TOWN!!!!!!

I know how you feel! My Morrison just changed the layout completely and I can't find a blooming thing! But the most annoying is that the labels and prices and promos don't match so you end up with a huge bill at the till coz the things were NOT bogof or half price or any of that!
I must admit though, when we had big queues at Christmas the member of staff walked among us and gave out free chocolates -big hit with my little monkey:DDebt: [STRIKE]-£77.299 74,209[/STRIKE]-£72,860 Projected MF date(age):[STRIKE]2044(63)[/STRIKE] 2029(48)

Good to hear you had such a lovely holiday. This is the first half term in years that we didn't go away. Kids and revision!
I popped into our local Morrisons a couple of weeks ago and it has completely changed.
I don't think I can add any motivation as my mojo has wandered over the last 3 days. I guess we all need a break and then back in the saddle.

As of today btl mortgage balance is £14,119.53.
DD paying me money this week so that will take it below 14k.
Pay day next Thursday :j which, once I've transferred 1k into and out of HFax and then transferred OP to mortgage, will knock it below 13k.
Will try to do tax rebate at weekend, that will knock it below 12k once it is paid.
Around £900 bonus at end May
£900 ordinary OP at end May
Plus normal monthly payments. At end of May, before 1st June mortgage payment goes out, mortgage will be in 4 figures :j.[IMG]http://djrodneycorbine.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/otis-spann-got-my-[DELETED USER].jpg[/IMG]A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0
