Well, without mortgage #1 .

Holidays are to nice to have booked it gives us something to look forward to especially as the weather is only going to get worse. Sounds like you got a good deal on the tumbledryer normally Very.co.uk has horrid interest rates.

So. This mealplanning malarkey:

em....... not quite finished it yet :rotfl:. One freezer now has no meals and is for bread (mainly for DS), DS's rubbish food, frozen fruit for brekkie, frozen veg and sausages & black pudding (well, room for sausages & black pudding, there are none at present ).

The other one has em....... some stuff in it. Def some meatloaf. And some lamb steaks. And some turkey steaks. And 1 pot of soup. And some other stuff and em...... lots of space . Ex OH can get chicken breasts cheap, am getting a pack of those next week, so will sort out properly then. Promise Tilly .

DS has nearly finished reinstalling everything on my laptop, just as well as this work one is driving me crazy .

Only a couple of weeks till we owe less than when I started this diary 2 years ago :rotfl:. Still haven't worked out money to see when I will pay mortgage #1 off .

Tackled garage :T. Cardboard Gremlins are gone :T. General Stuff Gremlins are in temporary holding bays at back of garage. They wouldn't dare move, I gave them 'the look'. The one that turns Mr GG's legs to jelly, and not in a good way .

Car now in garage :T.

Ah yes, car............ em, that would be the car with no MOT. Oops . Will sort tomorrow, hope it passes . It's only a few days late Officer .

In other matters......

On 1st Nov the other 3 mortgages all drop below the next thousand barrier :T:T:T.

Well done GG

We have 3 morgages accounts as well. At least I can OP in all three whilst on fixed term!

Love the idea of christmas every 4 years, shall we start a petition?

Unfortunately you lot (yes you know who you are) have made me evaluate my christmas cupboard (took all afternoon) and wrap stuff, so I now feel less stressy about christmas and probably should say thanks!

Mine too. Although I have the advantage (disadvantage) that it's a 2 minute walk from our house so the most cluttered it gets is a bottle of screen wash and a few snails!

And before you ask... yes walking to and from the garage twice a day is a pain (especially if I need a wee after an hour long commute!) but I'm stubborn and I want to save money on the insurance. I'm also unlucky so it'd be sod's law if I couldn't be bothered to garage park and it got damaged roadside parked!!!
