stingebag versus a fool and his money

Good morning world:wave:.
Good news is managed to purchase another super duper steam generator iron for a little less than £60:) and its totally fab!! Not quite MSE but ironing is the bain of my life and to me it's worth paying the extra to get the job done quick;).
Have also registered with Northern Rock to view my mortgage account online as I have had 4 different answers relating to my over paying question.....me thinks that the right hand does'nt know what the left hands doing:mad:. At least that way I can play big brother and actually see what's happening to my dosh;).
Have a pleasant day, stingebag:)0 -
I feel good....I knew that I would now:j:j:j.
Just made an op of £150 so that takes me below the £100k mark:beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:
Must say that this oping lark is a tad bit addictive;). Didn't think I could be possibly any more stingey than I was before...but I'm giving it a damn good try:).
Was speaking to "a fool" yesterday about cars and he said that before he pops his clogs he would like to be the proud owner of a BMW....well I have decided that after the mortgage noose round my neck has been sorted then I shall grant his wish;)
Of course "a fool" is oblivious to my secret mission as if he knew I had the extra dosh then the BMW would be plonked on the drive right here, right now!:D
Take care everyone - Stingebag. x:j0 -

Many congratulations on reaching this milestone! You must be over the moon!!
I am with Northern Rock too (N_RAM) but they insist that I can not see my mortgage online.. I would be very interested to hear if you manage it & how.. Could you please keep me in the loop?
Thanks
Froggy!
